Week 1: Why Start This Challenge
I don't make New Year resolutions because they can so easily go by the wayside by February. But each year I give myself goals to work on throughout the year. In 2015 and part of January 2016, I journaled and blog about my journey to be an overall healthier person, in mind, body and spirit.
I was having a hard time trying to figure out if I wanted to take on another year long journey, so to find some possible inspiration I looked around on Pinterest and found the 52 weeks of gratitude challenge, which I am starting today with this very post.
Why am I starting this challenge? 2016 looks to be a year of a lot of transition. Learning how to be a family of four is going to be the biggest one, but there are also many other possible transitions that may take place and until they do, a lot of waiting. For me, waiting causes anxiety, which in turn causes me to lose focus on the many things I have to be grateful for in my life.
That is why I have decided, even though it is hard at times to stay motivated, to embark on a 52 weeks of gratitude journey in 2016. I will be using a prompt guide I found on Pinterest. Each week I will focus on a different thing I am grateful for in my life or about myself.
So come follow along with my journey! Until next time Keep on keeping on!
