MCP068: The One About Gratitude w/Ely Delaney

Hey there! On today's #MeetCoolPeople episode, I shared some thoughts about the power of gratitude and an exercise that I use myself and with clients that set the stage to impact me first thing every day. 

I talked about spending quality time with my daughter, the support of my amazing clients, and how grateful I was for the multiple speaking engagements I had just last week. These moments reminded me of why practicing gratitude is important, especially when life feels overwhelming. We explored how acknowledging these positive experiences can uplift our mood and set a productive tone for the day.

Key Takeaways:

• Gratitude Practice: Start your day by writing down five things you're grateful for. This daily exercise can shift your mindset and improve your productivity.
• The Power of Writing It Down: Writing forces you to visualize and internalize gratitude; it's more effective than just thinking about it.
• Stretching Your Mind: Some days, identifying five things to be grateful for is tough. This challenge pushes your brain to focus on positivity despite difficulties.
• Little Things Count: Gratitude isn't only for big events. Appreciating small joys, like having a good mocha or a supportive friend, makes a big difference.
• Share the Gratitude: If someone is on your gratitude list, reach out and let them know. It reinforces positive connections and can brighten their day as well.

I hope you found this episode helpful and inspiring. Give the gratitude exercise a try, and let me know how it affects your daily routine.
