Week of May 19, 2025
The gratitude prompt for this week – An instance when I faced my discomfort with courage. I am resilient and capable of pushing through discomfort. Life’s challenges are not supposed to paralyze you; they’re supposed to help you discover who you are. Bernice Johnson Reagon
This was a hard prompt for me. I think I was avoiding facing the idea of discomfort. Does anyone really want to talk about it? I finally pushed myself to journal on this mid week. I started with how sometimes I feel less when I am going through challenges. I always see a new day as an opportunity to learn and grow. Finally I made it to the core of this prompt for me – the need to face discomfort and push through. Making the decision to change my life direction is scary and hard. It’s easy to walk the well worn path over stepping into the weeds to create a new direction. This year I am exploring a business idea and making plans to step away from my previous daily nine to five job in hopes of making changes that are less paralyzing. The goal is to discover who I am right now.
This year I am exploring gratitude with the 52 Essential Gratitude Attitude card deck by Mind Brain Emotion.
