Senpie 1,663 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Basically, in this thread, post 3 good things that have happened to you today that you are thankful for, and that you are appreciative for. This helps you acknowledge that 1, good things happen in your life and 2, recognise sources goodness outside yourself too. Thinking about it and writing it down also helps improve focus on the "good"s in your life (Seligman, Steen, Park, & Peterson, 2005). I thought this site needed a space for positivity. Don't come in here reading about other people's good days and feeling bad for your own; this is not a space for that or a space to judge others, or one for comparison. At all. Come in here just to log what you've been happy about today. No bashing also, please. Nothing's too trivial, it's all really subjective (what makes you thankful). BUT you don't need to do it too much. You could jot it everyday, but the benefits don't increase much beyond like doing it 3 days a week tbh. Remembering these positive experiences, being appreciative of them and having positive mood is seriously beneficial for you health and career/studies-wise (e.g. Danner, Snowden, & Friesden, 2001; Diener, & Biswas-Diener, 2008; Harker, & Keltner, 2001; Stone et al., 2014). Feel free to use this thread as a log. When you have a bad day, use that search function with your username in this thread. It could be really personal stuff/you don't want to put this all over the WWW so you can write it down in your own diary or anything (i might do this too lol). Even if you don't want to do it on here, just write it down somewhere. Do it! I'll start with mine (for yesterday, because it's just early afternoon for me RN) 1. I'm thankful that my group meeting yesterday for our presentation went really well and was efficient, and that I managed to finish compiling my group's research presentation slides 2. I'm thankful that i'm being better at waking up early and not rolling around in bed 3. I'm thankful i have a crazy awesome bunch of friends in univ with me that make me laugh and smile all the time PS. Sorry for the bunch of in text citations, just providing them in case y'all wanted some receipts. Too lazy for APA reference lists :P This isn't a research project on my side, i'm not trying to run any pseudo experiments here, don't worry. *prays this thread won't flop* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
