Daily Gratitude Challenge Day 25: Showing Gratitude

In an effort to inject some positivity into my daily mindset and the online world I have created a Daily Gratitude Challenge and I am inviting everyone to participate. If you have missed my introductory post that explains the challenge and maps out the daily post schedule, visit here.

Day 25 of the Daily Gratitude Challenge is about showing gratitude to others.

How I Show Gratitude

I like to give out compliments to my friends and random strangers – it’s amazing how much of a difference it makes when you tell someone that they have done a good job or look nice. Sometimes I don’t go about it in the right way – a woman at Sale tram station thought I was following her at first when I tried to tell her that her gorgeous floaty summer dress was beautiful – but the sentiment is there.

I work hard. If someone has given me an opportunity, regardless of what that opportunity is I always try my best. I want them to do well.

I help. If someone has gone out of their way to help me, I will return the favour and more.

Unexpected presents, just because. If I find something that I know someone will like I enjoy surprising them. I get a bit of a kick from seeing their face when they open it.

Cards. The Bloke and I have hundreds of cards that we have written to each other over the years.

I tell people when they have made a difference in my life, particularly if they have offered great advice that has changed my perspective or had a positive impact.

And perhaps the most simple of all… I say thank you. I’m still amazed at how many people don’t use basic manners when going about their day.
