List 30 things that make you happy.

28 piss me off. Simply not enough. And 31? Oh my what a gluttonous configuration.

So I’m kidding-ish.

I like the idea of this prompt. Gratitude is so incredibly important. And to name just 1 daily is good for the body, soul and mind. I do my best to stay in the mindset of gratitude every day, night and moment.

Because I am.

For 51 years now I have had so many amazing experiences, both “good” and “bad” it’s hard to not look back in gratitude.

For the “good”; they’ve brought me moments of joy and pleasure.

For the “bad”; I learned so much and even better, survived them to tell the tale and share the lessons.

That’s literally how my mind works now.

It’s also why I’m doing exactly what I’m doing now.

It’s Day 4 of the “Journey to 11,000” and in this adventure, those constant reminders come in really handle as I apply those good and bads to my actions. Such as today’s focus on revamping all of my websites:

The funny part? This task used to be quite easy… but then the updates and the dumbing down of processes made it a whole lot more frustrating.

But you know what?

I’ve made it through it.

Now, Go Play!
