Your commitment to your gratitude journal refocuses your mind on positive events, conversations and relationships. This enables you to see more than just those negative ones that tend to fill your mind and dominate your thoughts when they happen.

This will happen as you not only keep your gratitude journal but also review it. You will find that your mind opens to new possibilities and you gain in self-confidence and knowledge.
If you want to create a positive change in yourself and your life, then keeping a gratitude journal may be just be the tool you are looking for. It's cheap, easy and very beneficial to your physical and mental health.
