Week #219 – Keep Counting! \u00a0(33 Days of Gratitude Starts Now!)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Greetings Happyness Tribe — and Happy Holidays!<\/p>\n

Thanksgiving may be “over”…but there is no reason to let the gratitude stop! \u00a0November is known as “Gratitude Month”…but for the past few years I’ve proposed we keep it going. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And this year is no different.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because after our single biggest day of giving thanks — we turn and face the most commercial season of the year. \u00a0It’s\u00a0no secret that retailers thrive on lack to drive their profits. \u00a0And as many of us are trying desperately to simplify the holidays — retailers seem to scream even louder to get our attention.<\/p>\n

It turns what many desire to be a season of happiness and contentment into a season of lack and comparison.<\/p>\n

And so, I wanted to repeat my challenge again this year…to continue giving thanks into December and give ourselves the gift of gratitude this holiday season!<\/strong><\/p>\n

(This idea was born out of my own lack of gratitude two years ago. \u00a0You can read about it on Week #115<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

So here it is! \u00a0A very simple, one-page calendar<\/a> that you (or your kids) can hang on your wall or refrigerator and fill in each day — and a challenge to Count Your Blessings for 33 days straight! \u00a0(40 days if you take it right through to New Year’s Day!)<\/p>\n

Think you can do it?!<\/p>\n

Your Happyness Challenge for the week ahead: KEEP COUNTING! \u00a0<\/strong>Amid the stress and strife of the season ahead…give YOURSELF the gift of gratitude! \u00a0Download the 33 Days of Gratitude printable PDF<\/a>\u00a0and start counting your blessings today! \u00a0Come Christmas Day —\u00a0you’ll have 33 reminders of everything that is going right and well in your life! \u00a0(And I will too!)<\/p>\n
