#5 - Every Day is Thanksgiving Day

Theo here with your Thanksgiving Day Heroic wisdom.


I love Thanksgiving! The family, the food, the time to stop and give thanks are all amazing!


I only wish that it was EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. 


We have to remember that Gratitude is a virtue that that we NEED in order to flourish. 


Not one day a year, but moment to moment to moment. 


In fact the science is unequivocal…write down FIVE things that you are grateful for ONCE a week and you will increase your happiness by 25%. 🤯


You can read more in the Philosopher's Note Thanks by Robert Emmons. It’s filled with tons of gems on Gratitude.


Robert also makes the point that it is impossible to be GRATEFUL and have a negative thought at the same time… try it. It can’t happen. 


So on this Thanksgiving Day…let's give thanks for GRATITUDE and how it helps us flourish, write five things you are grateful for, and if a negative thought enters your mind, find something, anything that you are grateful for!


Happy Thanksgiving!


Talk soon!
