Happy Friday,
I have been reflecting this week on the power of gratitude. I have felt gratitude noticeably this week as I hit my fundraising target for the British Heart Foundation ahead of next Sunday. I've been overwhelmed with peoples' kindness in donating in a really challenging climate but also in their sharing of my fund-raising page and story with others.
It has given me a renewed focus on the importance of gratitude and being so grateful for all we have - the things many of us still take for granted that so many people do not have.
This week I've been a lot more grateful for my home, my bed, electricity and food after watching a Channel 4 documentary on the cost of living crisis. Listening to a 10-year old child verbalising their worries about bailiffs, unpaid bills and wondering how their father is mentally; is heart breaking.
I've been writing down 3 things each morning that I'm grateful for - it's a really worthwhile exercise to commit to.
Today it's the following for me:
-My Physio who has helped me hugely during my training
-The boys attending their first cub session last night
-My client with whom I've spent 2 great days with this week
Take 2 minutes and do this exercise for yourself - it can bring real positivity to your day ahead.
Have a great weekend.
