Gratitude - Three Good Things Exercise

I wanted to share a straightforward Gratitude exercise called the "Three Good Things" exercise. It's easy to do and can profoundly impact your overall happiness and well-being.


Here's how it works:


  1. Reflect: At the end of each day, take a few moments to reflect on the events and experiences you encountered throughout the day.

  2. Identify Three Good Things: Think about three things that went well or that you are grateful for during the day. These can be big or small, significant or seemingly insignificant. They might include acts of kindness from others, moments of joy, achievements, or even simple pleasures like a good cup of coffee or a beautiful sunset.

  3. Write Them Down: Take a notebook or use a gratitude journal and write down the three good things you identified. Try to be specific and descriptive as you write them down.

  4. Reflect on Why: For each good thing you've listed, take a moment to reflect on why it made you feel grateful. What impact did it have on you? How did it make you feel? Recognising why you're grateful can deepen the experience.

  5. Express Gratitude: If possible, express gratitude for these good things. You can do this silently to yourself or share your gratitude with someone else if the opportunity arises.

By regularly practising this exercise, you train your mind to focus on the positive aspects of your life, no matter how small they may seem. Over time, this can help shift your mindset towards one of gratitude and positivity, leading to increased happiness and life satisfaction. Plus, it only takes a few minutes each day, making it an easy and accessible practice for anyone.


Have a beautiful day everyone.
