Notebook of gratitude to the universe. A gratitude journal is a simple and effective practice that can change your life! That's how I was

There were also difficult times in my life when difficulties and trials rained down on me like from a cornucopia. I will not have time to solve one problem, as ten new ones will fall down. And so she rowed through the thorns to the stars, as if on a leaky boat, from which she constantly had to scoop up water so as not to drown nafig.

It was so long ago that I had already forgotten why I once again complained to a neighbor from our entrance about the current trouble. And do you know what she did? She listened carefully, and then said sternly:
- Stop complaining. Otherwise, your troubles will never stop.
Well, they won't stop anyway. There are always reasons for them.
- Do you want them to stop?
- Want. Very.
- Then, starting today, stop telling anyone about your troubles, and at the end of the day, before going to bed, thank you for all the good things that happened to you during the day. And do so exactly 21 days. There will be first changes in your life. Go ahead and get to 90 days. The changes will become even more significant. Let this become your new habit, like brushing your teeth before bed.

And who to thank?

Specific people, God, the Universe, your body, nature. 10 thanks at the end of the day, 10 of your "thanks" to someone or something will change your life so much that in time your troubles will end.

At first, it was very difficult for me to scrape together 10 thanks. But I felt it was necessary, and my first 10 thanks went something like this:

1) thank you for being alive and breathing
2) thank you for my children, that I have them and I am not alone
3) thank you for the fresh bread I bought today
4) thanks to my daughter for her five in Russian - pleased
5) thanks for the fact that today I did not have an exacerbation of the ulcer
6) thanks for the good weather
7) thanks to my son for helping me take out the trash
8) thanks to the body master for fixing the TV
9) thanks to the TV master for not only fixing the TV, but also helping to hang a cabinet in the kitchen and not taking any money
10) thank you for the fact that the kids quickly calmed down today and I have time for thanks.

Sometimes I literally sucked my gratitude out of my finger. But I imperceptibly got involved, and after three weeks I noticed that life became easier.

Three months later, for some reason, there were even more trials and problems, but I continued to choose the brightest moments from a pile of daily events and wrote these 10 thanks before going to bed. Sometimes it was like I was lying, crushed by a carriage, and above me the sky was blue - thank you, a beautiful butterfly squatted on my nose - thank you; still alive - thank you, and so on.

I admit honestly, sometimes I missed and did not write thanks, and then I had to start over again. After all, a new habit is formed in 21 days, fixed within 90 days, and changes life only after daily implementation. And if you miss even one day, you destroy the magic of the habit.

I haven't always been consistent, but I had the willpower to make 10 daily gratitudes my habit. I still have old diaries and diaries where I wrote down my ten "thank you" at the end of the day.

And one day there was an insight. Illumination. I realized how much my life has changed. I began to look better, but what is there - I became a beauty. My income has increased. I made repairs and our living space was transformed: a fountain gurgled in my bedroom, we got a beautiful cat with piercing blue eyes. I changed the old sofa for a new bedroom furniture set. And many other changes.

Trials and troubles kept coming into my life. But year after year, I became a happier woman and tried to keep all the focus of my inner attention on the good that comes into my life.

It is like a spotlight or flashlight in a dark room. You turn it on and choose where to direct the light. On a pile of rubbish and old bushes, or on beautiful flowers and a bird on a branch. And this does not mean that garbage or garbage does not exist. You just clean them out, but you continue to highlight what gives you energy and joy. What makes you happy.

This is just one of the simplest magic techniques I have mastered in my life. Which helped me change my perception and my inner mood. There are others. Life is a magic that we, women, create every day: at home, at work, in the garden, with children, with friends, alone with ourselves.

And I want to end this article with sincere thanks for today:

Girl, thank you in advance for your comments on this post!!!

PS: I forgot to write that for many years I have been doing without daily notes of gratitude, although I am lying: I wrote down the year before last and last year. But nevertheless ... Before going to bed for the last six months, I just remember all the good moments of the past day and thank you out loud or to myself.
But yesterday I was not too lazy and made this post and wrote as many as 20 thanks. And today something very, very good happened to my husband, beyond words. Both for him and for the family. And I suddenly saw a connection between my 20 thanks and what happened today. New several reasons for new thanks.
This is such a great virus!

The diary, which interested the women's site "Beautiful and Successful", is called by many the most powerful tool.

After reading about such a Diary, many begin to smirk: why should I be thankful for fate? Indeed, we are accustomed to take everything for granted. Often we focus only on the difficulties. We do not notice around those people to whom fate sends more difficult trials.

First we have to look for those moments for which we can thank fate. Everyone starts with a global one: thank you for life, for healthy children, for a roof over your head, for your work. Then people begin to pay attention to those moments for which they can also be thankful.

Psychologists believe that the use of such a practice on a subconscious level gives a person an attitude - the task must be performed as best as possible. We begin to notice all the little things for which we can be grateful. Gradually, the attitude towards life changes. After all, we learn to notice the good that surrounds us, and gratefully accept what fate gives us.

How to start keeping a success diary?

Everyone gets acquainted with the Diary in different ways. Someone begins to lead him out of desperation, grasping at every opportunity like a straw.

  • I was ready to help my daughter, who was in a terrible depression, in any way. She didn't know how to approach her. She persuaded me to simply write, for which she is grateful for this life. It was not even offensive that the first and only thing she wrote down was: “I am grateful to my parents for my little sister.” And that's all. She wrote nothing more. But the psychologist managed to build on this and bring my daughter out of her depression. By the way, after that I started to keep my records. I don't know how to keep records properly. I just thank life for every moment I live. It helps me not to lose heart. Natalia.

Someone sets himself up to keep such a diary: he buys a beautiful notebook or notebook, stickers to mark his mood and the mood of the day at the end of the day.

  • Being on maternity leave 2 months before the birth, I read everything that was possible. I came across an article about the Diary of the success of one blogger and the Diary of gratitude of one girl. I decided to reunite these 2 diaries. I bought the most beautiful notebook and began to write down all the thanks and successes there. It's so sweet to read these lines now. After all, when the baby was born, time was not enough. But I still find a second in the evening to at least write down “thank you for the day I lived.” Vera Petrovna.

Some start journaling as an experiment. They set a goal for themselves - I’ll write down 100 thanks, I’ll see what happens. Why not? You don't lose anything.

  • I did not know how to keep a success diary, so I simply wrote down on a piece of paper everything for which I am grateful to God, and everything that I have achieved in this life. The first thing that happened after the recordings was that my mood improved significantly! I began to enjoy life. I used to be depressed by the fact that every day was like Groundhog Day: morning - work - night. And now I am glad that I am alive, that my children and parents are alive, that I can give them everything they want. Maria.

And there are those who start keeping a Gratitude Diary and write down in it not only thanks and achievements for the day, but also what they would like to have in this life. Moreover, they write it down as a fact that has already taken place. Here is how Victor describes it:

  • I wrote every day that I thank you for the wonderful work on the Internet (and worked as a consultant in a store) and thank you for a good apartment at an affordable price (and I lived in a terrible Khrushchev for a big pay). Soon I had a job and an apartment. So everything is in our head. Our thoughts materialize - that's for sure.

Even married couples keep such diaries, where they write down what they are grateful to their soul mate for.

  • At first, I began to keep such a diary of success, as usual, and wrote not only about how grateful I was to fate for having met my husband, but also about what happened during the day. Then my husband joined in. You just need both of you to believe in your success. The desire to thank your soul mate for something should be mutual. If your man is cynical about this, then you don’t need to force him to do “this kindergarten”. It's gone in our family. Now sometimes we re-read our notes together and want to start (or whatever it is called right?). Zhenya.

How to keep a Gratitude and Success Diary?

There are no hard and fast rules on how to keep a success or gratitude diary. There are only general recommendations:

  • It is desirable to make records daily and write by hand, and not keep electronically.
  • Some people like to write everything down before bed.
  • Others prefer to keep notes during the day, each time noting even the slightest gratitude: a passerby smiled - I am grateful to him for the smile, I liked the flower - I thank nature for such beauty.

Thank you for what?

You can be grateful for whatever you want:

  • For pleasant memories. By the way, the first entries for pleasant memories can be the first step towards getting out of depression. Many begin to write down any memories they are grateful for. Psychologists practice this technique: write down at once 100 thanks that come to mind first.
  • For the pleasant moments that happened to you this day, you also definitely need to thank.
  • Thank the people who did something pleasant and even unpleasant for you, because they also taught you something.
  • Don't forget to thank yourself.

Recordings can be formatted in different ways. For example, "I am grateful that..."

What progress should be recorded in a diary?

Just like gratitude. Write down even the slightest of your successes and achievements. We met records that people recorded in the success of overcoming their own.

  • You used to be afraid to talk to strangers on the phone, but today you were able to - write it down as success.
  • We made a report without errors - also write about success.
  • You have done what you have been talking about for a long time - be sure to record this as well.

In the evening, reread what you wrote down during the day.

As you can see, there are no tips on how to make notes correctly and how to start keeping such a Diary. This is everyone's personal space.

It has been noticed that keeping such records helps to see new opportunities, to notice those little things and accidents that you could simply not pay attention to without the Diary. Your life with a positive attitude will turn for the better.

If you are interested in the Diary of gratitude and success, write the first 10 thanks in the comments on the site, for which you can say thank you to fate. Thank you sincerely for reading this article!

Push:

The idea to keep a Success Diary came to me by chance. I once swam in the pool and thought that fixing my victories could help me fix the necessary “points” in the subconscious.

Robin Sharma, a best-selling author on leadership, a life coach on personal growth and motivation, speaks about all this. I advise you to watch it, where he shares his secrets of keeping a magical diary.

As you noticed, our article is called “Success Diary Success and Gratitude Diary: How to Keep It Correctly.” I want to draw attention to the fact that special importance should be given not only to fixing victories, but also to gratitude. The more you thank your family, friends, colleagues, the world for what they give you, the more you get.

So, are you ready to shift the paradigm of your thinking? You want to see those things that were previously hidden from your eyes. Believe me, the world is beautiful. And every day can be blessed. And when suddenly you want to complain about something, get angry, upset because of something, just remember this expression:

It is unlikely that I can convince you in words of the usefulness and, I would say more, the vital necessity of keeping a Diary of Success and Gratitude. Just try.

Diary of Success and gratitude: how to keep it right

You need to find (buy) a good pen and a diary, a notebook, a notepad - something that will become a piggy bank for your thanks and successful thoughts. Choose these items with your heart. After all, it is so important to approach any business with full dedication and love.

Write on the first sheet of paper in bold marker "My Diary of Success and Gratitude." You can attach your own photo if you wish.

The key rule of keeping a Success Diary is to write down your achievements every day. Well, if it will be 5-7 successful cases. Don't go to bed until you've recorded your success today and your gratitude.

What could be your victory today? Yes any:

  • Academic achievement.
  • Success at work.
  • Delicious cooked dinner.
  • Kind words addressed to someone.
  • Help loved ones.
  • Well lazy).
  • We were allowed to watch a good movie.
  • Pay attention to children.

Record your achievements EVERY EVENING! Just sit down and remember what good things happened to you that day.

Record your achievements, thanks on one page of the miracle diary or on different ones. As you feel more comfortable, do it. I personally first write down my successes, and then I write words of gratitude. If you decide to decorate the “book of your thoughts” with some drawings, pasted checks, photographs, this will be even more beneficial. The main thing is to make notes and other manipulations with the diary in a good mood.

When you accumulate many victories, the failures recorded in the subconscious mind will dissolve on their own. Alas, this is how the human brain works: it remembers bad events well and for a long time, and forgets good moments quickly. Therefore, more often reread your success diary and Thanks, especially on those days when longing and sadness envelops you. What you water is what grows. If you cultivate resentment, fears and other "evil spirits" in yourself, they will fill your soul. When you pay attention to your achievements, success will one day enter your life and remain in it forever. Checked. Just don't give up. Yes, it's hard to discipline yourself. So what to do? Here, either live as you live, or change something.

The administration of the club is glad to offer you to keep Personal Diaries of Success and Gratitude directly.

Diary of Success and Gratitude: difficulties and obstacles

So, you decided to start keeping a personal diary? Wonderful.

The word "diary" is associated with many people either with a school diary or with a diary where impressionable girls describe their emotions about love experiences.

Bodo Schaeffer - German financial consultant, also known as "financial Mozart", offers to keep a diary of success. For what? To significantly increase your income in three months.

Should we trust Bodo Schaeffer, because now there are many other reputable financial gurus? This Bodo Schaeffer, whose credo from a young age was the words: “The winner rides through life first class,” learned at the age of 26 what complete bankruptcy is. He owed creditors 75,000 marks.

However, that is why it is worth listening to his recommendations. As the proverb says, "For one beaten, they give two unbeaten." The mistakes made were good for Bodo Schaeffer: thanks to them, he realized that he needed a teacher. Why struggle to reinvent the bicycle that others have been riding for a long time? Athletes have coaches, so why can't he turn to the same coach, only in the field of finance!

His mentor was an American millionaire who appreciated Bodo Schaeffer's desire for knowledge and his perseverance. In the distant past, this millionaire himself started his own business with some thousand dollars and brought his fortune to almost a billion. He helped Bodo Schaeffer establish the firm and advised him. After 2.5 years, a capable student earned 100 thousand marks in 30 days, and by the age of 30 -.

Now Bodo Schaeffer lives on a percentage of his capital, gives lectures that gather a large number of people who want to learn from him, and publishes his own books. In particular, “Breakthrough to financial success”, “The path to financial independence. First million”, “Laws of winners. Wise truths. Success Strategies.

Financial success, who could not get an education in his youth due to lack of money, seems like a fairy tale. But if you study the principles of success that he developed, and realize the consistency with which he adhered to them, then there will be nothing surprising in his achievements. Most people who would also dream of getting rich lack perseverance and strength of character.

An indispensable component of success is keeping a diary of success, says Bodo Schaeffer. “If you do not become lazy and make entries in the Diary of Success every day, then after 90 days your material income will increase by at least 20%. I guarantee you that!” he says.

Looks tempting!

How does the Success Diary work?

So, the Diary of Success is an ordinary notebook where from now on we will write down our daily achievements - large and small. We also include compliments “earned” during the day, positive ratings received from other people, our positive impressions of the events taking place around us.

There must be at least five such achievements. More please! The word "achievement" sounds a bit pathetic. When we hear it, some global achievements with high results come to mind. In our case, we count as achievements both an early rise, which we did not succeed in any way, and a compliment received for deliciously brewed coffee, and a successful purchase, and a job well done - everything that we did well and for which we are grateful to ourselves and today.

In the Diary of Success, you can write motivating quotes, like the thoughts of famous people, your own thoughts and ideas.

It would seem, what is easier! Unfortunately, many people start successfully, but after a few days they safely abandon any new business, coming up with excuses: there is no time, it’s not interesting, it’s stupid, it doesn’t work.

So our actions are:

  1. We purchase a notebook, notebook, diary (it is better to keep a diary in paper form);
  2. In the evening, before going to bed, we dedicate 15 minutes to ourselves to
  3. Gather our thoughts and write down everything that we did today, for which we were pleased with ourselves - everything that caused positive emotions;
  4. This should be done systematically, and not on a case-by-case basis.

What is the secret of the Success Diary?

The thing is, we spend too much time on negativity. Every day we focus our attention on unpleasant situations and failures, we remember insults for a long time. Happy moments and all the good things that are done with us and around us, we do not notice. And one gets the impression that our life is a chain of failures and defeats, there is no positive in it. Hence - defeatist moods, self-doubt, low self-esteem. Thoughts, as you know, are material. First, we program ourselves that everything is bad, and then we make excuses and blame the circumstances that prevented us from realizing ourselves.

Brian Tracy, an American expert in the field of the psychology of success, rightly noted that people care about their physical health, so they prefer quality products. They don't care what they eat. But at the same time, they neglect their spiritual health and fill their heads with low-grade information and negative thoughts, which ultimately makes them pessimists and losers.

A person who will become a habit of keeping a diary of success:

  • Become more motivated. He will learn to notice the positive moments, and every day he will have more and more reasons to praise himself;
  • Say goodbye to depressive thoughts. He simply will not have reasons for depression. The same wrote that “our consciousness can hold in itself only one thought at a time - positive or negative. And what it will be - we choose. With the help of the Diary of Success, we will make this choice. If suddenly we are seized by depressive thoughts, we will leaf through our Diary of Success and understand that there is nothing to be sad about;
  • He will be able to control his path to the goal. Most people plan their day mentally: in the morning they remember what they have to do during the day, and in the evening, before going to bed, they summarize. However, some things remain unfulfilled: they are either forgotten or postponed until tomorrow. With the help of the Success Diary, it is much easier to control yourself, and therefore organize;
  • He will become more self-confident, because the Diary of Success will clearly confirm that he has something to be proud of.

A gratitude diary is an excellent way to qualitatively change your life, to become more successful and happy than you were before. Knowing how to keep a gratitude journal correctly and keeping it helps to attract the Universe to your side, to receive powerful support from it in all endeavors. And also to develop those areas of life that are not yet perfect, but are of great importance to you.

A gratitude diary is a personal diary where a person notes everything for which he feels gratitude. With the help of such a tool, you can change the course, correct the perception of events and the surrounding reality, and with them. This is especially important for those people who have. Through this diary, a person changes the point of view of the world and sets his life on a positive wave.

By filling out a gratitude journal, you are writing your own success story. Every event, act, or encounter that makes you want to say “thank you” is a milestone to a more successful and happier life.

In addition to raising self-esteem to the proper level, a gratitude journal saves you from depression and depression. If there is no one around who could give you confidence in yourself, keeping such a diary will help you and. You will learn to see positive moments in every event and fill your days with joy. And this psychological tool will teach you such useful qualities:

  1. you will begin to notice the good deeds of the people around you. Most of us focus on criticism, pointing out one negative, while not seeing the positive actions of others or taking them for granted;
  2. you will learn to enjoy the little things, get rid of the wrong attitude that everyone owes you everything, realize that the world constantly presents you with gifts just like that, and you will also be able to see that you have everything for happiness;
  3. learn to feel gratitude for your actions, skills - this will increase yours;
  4. the skill of gratitude will teach you to forgive offenders, thereby freeing yourself from the severity of insults and insults. It will also free you from destructive self-pity;
  5. learn to appreciate the difficulties and problems that have happened in life, as they have tempered you and made you a stronger person.

The most interesting thing is that you will begin to attract positive and harmonious people into your life. Becoming a brighter personality, you will attract your own kind to your environment. And negative, angry, judgmental, bilious people will either disappear from your life or change with you.

To paraphrase the words of the Prophet Muhammad: “The best guarantee that Abundance will continue in your life is gratitude for what you have already received.”

At first, it will not be easy to “re-tune in” to gratitude, to see the good in, but gradually it will become easier for you to do this. Gradually, the skill of gratitude will grow into and will give you great pleasure. However, in order for this to happen, so that your mind is tuned to a constant search for positive, you need to regularly fill out a diary of achievements and gratitude for at least three months.

Write by hand

Properly keeping a gratitude and success diary means writing by hand. So you fill it with a special one, which will increase the return many times over. Moreover, it is not difficult to write by hand in such a diary, since the phrases in it will be small and capacious.
After some time, every time you take a pen in your hand, your mind will reflexively start looking for reasons to be grateful.

First 100 thanks

The most difficult thing in any endeavor is to take the first step, that is,. You must understand why you need to keep a gratitude journal, what qualities you want to eradicate and what to cultivate in yourself.

To use the powerful creative power of the universe, write the first 100 "thank you" in a notebook or notebook:

  • it can be gratitude to parents for their birth, upbringing and growing up;
  • it can be “thank you” to yourself for some personal qualities;
  • you can thank yourself for some features of appearance, for manifestations of kindness to people around;
  • express gratitude to friends, acquaintances or strangers for their actions towards you;
  • it can be a list of events from your childhood with gratitude or “thank you” for yesterday's pleasant act of your colleague;
  • you can say “thank you” simply for the fact that you have eyes and you see with them, for the fact that you have arms and legs, for peace of mind, for meeting an interesting person.

Do not look for any templates, write whatever comes to mind. No reason for gratitude is small or insignificant. Let your first 100 thanks be a real letter to the universe.

Express gratitude sincerely, imbued with it. Your "thank you" should not be on duty. Only sincerity will fill you with creative energy.

thanksgiving limit

After you write 100 "thank you", set a daily thank you limit. Set a rule for yourself: every day you should write in your diary at least 5 thanks, and preferably 10. It doesn’t matter if it’s global or small, but you will have to fulfill your minimum every day.

However, there are no maximum restrictions. If you had a lot of positive events and meetings on any given day, describe them all.
It also happens that there were just few events and meetings, and it is difficult to find any positive. Then focus on what we usually take for granted and start giving thanks for:

  • cool weather today, when the last month was overcome by heat;
  • a working elevator that took you to your apartment on the 9th floor;
  • hot tap water and hot batteries;
  • working Internet, and just for electricity (remember, someone still does not have this);
  • a nice bonus in the store or a discount;
  • a delicious lunch prepared for you in the cafeteria;
  • a funny photo or a funny dog ​​that you met on the way;
  • fragrant coffee that a colleague treated you to.

By focusing on these “little things” that make up our lives, you can easily find more than 10 reasons to express gratitude.

Every day a reason to say thank you

It is very important that you write gratitude in your diary every day. If you notice that, for example, you feel tired in the evening and cannot focus on the events of today in order to find a reason to be grateful, carry a small notebook with you in which you write down your “thanks” throughout the day. In the evening, all you have to do is rewrite them in your gratitude journal. This way you will get a double benefit: fill out a diary and relive the positive moments of today. And what could be better than ending the day on a positive note and in a good mood?

If you are not grateful for what you already have, you will never get what you want.

If some kind of failure drives you into depression, look at it from the outside, what is it pushing you to? Did your business partner let you down? Perhaps it’s time for you to quit a losing business, switching to something else, to which the soul lies. Did you fail your exam? A great chance to improve your knowledge and better prepare for the retake.

Sometimes even serious problems and breakdowns in life, for example, a divorce or a car accident, give impetus to a revision of one's worldview, attitude towards others and one's priorities.

Seek in every failure or mistake the seed of future achievement.

Reread the diary

In the beginning, a success and gratitude journal is a tool to help you appreciate how much good and positive things are in your life. Then, rereading it, you become stronger in your optimism, a new attitude. It is especially important to review your diary entries in moments of grief, disappointment, bursts of uncertainty and bad mood. The gratitude you expressed on a piece of paper will help overcome the negativity.

It will be absolutely great if you begin to pronounce your “thank you” to those around you: relatives, close people, colleagues, neighbors, even strangers who have done something good for you. You will start the effect of kindness, which will pass from person to person, making positive changes in them. Isn't this the way to make the world a better place?

How to understand that the diary is working

When you begin to notice how your environment is changing, how you yourself are changing, you will understand that the gratitude journal works in practice.

  1. If you have longed to have more money and been thankful for high and ever-increasing incomes, you will begin to notice that you really began to earn more or discover a new one.
  2. If you sought to find love and thanked the Universe for your loved one, as if he was already there, you opened up to new acquaintances and attracted a life partner to you.
  3. If you have been giving thanks for something you don't yet have, saying "thank you" for the pleasure you get from having what you want, you will get it in reality.

Goals, dreams, desires will one day come true if you think about them with gratitude. You will feel more confident, happier. Then you will understand that the diary works.

Conclusion

Happiness is a combination of pleasant little things and joyful moments. The diary of gratitude teaches you to notice the smallest manifestations of kindness, on the positive, to notice and celebrate the bright side of events. This means that it brings additional happiness to life. Keep a diary of gratitude and success - this will make your life harmonious, rich and filled with happiness.
