Be Grateful for Something or Someone

I hit a milestone yesterday – 50 checkins to the Lift App “Be Grateful for Something or Someone.” Now, this wasn’t my own plan to join the group – actually, Mandy urged me after I got her hooked on Lift. 

My checkins are pretty consistent, and most of my comments relate to family and friends, more often than not related to Mandy and the kids. Enough said.

Interestingly enough – I got an email from Erin Frey at Lift the other day as well, that our data was used in a recent post on their Medium blog. I love the takeaway that gratitude motivates you to do good deeds for others, even strangers. This is especially helpful as I’m in transition from CLA to my newest endeavor. I’m amazed every day for how people have come through to help in ways I could have never expected. I’m grateful. Thank you.

One Hundred Words

The last few months have been pretty amazing as I dove head-first into research on habits, how they’re formed, and broken.

Last night I went through my checklist on Lift and found that with over 1,030 checkins, some small and large habits have taken hold. I’m drinking more water than ever before, lifting weights more than I have in years, flossing regularly, making sure I email family, review my GTD lists, and live a healthier life.

I’ve had “write 100 words a day” on my to-do list for awhile, so here it goes.
