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 29 of the Daily Gratitude Challenge is all about aspirations and goals.
Aspirations and Goals
Over the last (almost) month, the daily focus on gratitude has been unexpectedly motivational. While I always write in my gratitude journal, being able to delve into every aspect of life in detail has not only shifted my mindset, but has pointed me in the general direction of where I want life to go next.
Earlier in the year I created a ‘40 Before Forty’ bucket list of all the things that I wanted to see, do and achieve by the time I turn 40 next year. Unfortunately, the global pandemic has changed a large amount of this (partly because a high percentage of it was travel based), and so I am currently rethinking what I want to do instead.
Currently (and I will update this post when I have revised my plans), I have just a few goals and aspirations. Yes, I would love to see the Grand Canyon, but for now my priorities are to stay safe, work hard, be as kind as possible, be grateful for every opportunity that I am offered and above all, to be happy.

Suzie Speaks 
You are amazing, Suzie! I love your posts on gratitude and do hope you get to see the Grand Canyon eventually. Let me know when you are ready and I will book a resort we can use near there. đŸ™‚
Don’t throw out the old bucket list yet. My suggestion is to put it on hold and come up with a new bucket list, one influenced by the pandemic. One day, this pandemic will be over. I have read that the 1918 pandemic that kills tens of millions (more than 600k in the U.S.) took three years before it faded into history.
