I am of the firm belief that the habit of practicing gratitude on a daily basis is the key to shifting our lives in a positive direction. This is not only the expression of gratitude for the positive things in our lives, but also for the challenges which we are often faced with.
But sometimes, we can get wrapped up in our day to day existence and agenda, and it is not that we aren’t grateful, but rather that we simply forget to actually verbalise it or take the time to offer it a moment of dedication even in thought.
It is also true that surrounding yourself with the positive attitudes and mind-set of others, that it has a ripple effect on yours too…
Welcome to the #GratitudeTrain No. 3
......
So for ALL of us, including myself, I have decided to start this #gratitudetrain. We all spend a good portion of our lives here browsing through our Steemit feeds, so why not build a positive habit in the process. I think it will be great to share something every day that we are grateful for in our lives, no matter how big or small it may be.
Whether it is a new career path, a new hobby, an achievement of your child, a new relationship, a challenge overcome or simply a new pair of shoes… it doesn’t matter! There is without question… ALWAYS something we can take a moment to be grateful for!
GratitudeTrain #3 -
Today, I am grateful for the values which have been instilled in me from my parents and siblings. I may not know everything, but I know what I believe in, I KNOW what I stand for - and I know how to stand my ground for those things. I am grateful for my determination, persistence, relentless optimism and tireless ploughing!!!!!
HOW TO PARTICIPATE
......
Step 1.
So starting today, in the comments section of #gratitudetrain post No. 1 – write something that you are grateful for in your life and start it with the number… as in if this is the first time you are sharing on the #gratitudetrain, then write the number “1.” And then state what you are grateful for.
Step 2.
Keep a record of your #gratitudetrain expressions shared in the comments somewhere in a word doc or such.
Step 3.
When you reach 30 – then publish a post on your own profile and be sure to use the #gratitudetrain tag or to tag me @jaynie in the post.
As simple as that!
The idea of this being, that not only will you develop a healthy and positive habit but at the end of 30 days when you share your own post, you will be able to reflect back and realise, just how MUCH GOODNESS there is in your life!
HAVE FUN!!
......
Until next time...
Much Love from Cape Town, South Africa xxx

My gratitude is a simple thing. I am grateful that there are dogs to be in my life to be my companions. They are always present, always loving, and always sympathetic. My life would not be complete without them.

I am grateful that I am adaptable and hardy. I have been thrown into many situations and been able to keep my head above water into gently floating into swimming forward to the finish line.... haha
And Buddha hits home with that one.
By the way, I like your relentless optimism too 😊

No. 3 I am grateful to God and my church. If it was not him who led to me to this town and then I met some friends who brought me to church where I was tremendously transformed, I would still be a woman full of anger and some badass inside.
