Do You Have A GRATITUDE-JAR?

One fine morning, I came across the reel from Ankur Warikoo, which says, to have a GRATITUDE JAR.

What actually Gratitude Jar is?

It is actually a jar or a container where you hold all your memories/people/things for which you are really grateful.

There are many things/persons in life that make us happy and are really important to us.

These are the things/people that you are really grateful for having in your life since they make your life may be easy or beautiful or make your living worthwhile.

For example,

  • You might be grateful that you have caring parents, loving kids, and a supportive spouse.
  • You might have great friends who stand by your side, whenever you need them.
  • You might have a maid that is so punctual and on time, and due to that, you got a chance to work on your passion or dream. (It is a great support. Can you imagine your success without that solid support? )
  • You might be grateful to have a lovely house to live in.
  • You might be grateful for a car that makes it easy for you to travel.
  • There can be many things in your life that you are grateful for since they make your life really easy. (Try to imagine your life without them).

For your gratitude jar, you have to do is, you have to write such things down on paper and put them in a jar/container. (I call those papers a gratitude paper/ gratitude dose).

Keep on doing this, this is a lifelong process.

Whenever you think that something you have is really precious to you and you are really grateful for it, then keep writing it down on a small piece of paper and keep putting it in the jar.

I am sure you are really puzzled about, the purpose of having this jar.

The real magic of a gratitude jar comes to life when we are sad and feeling dull. And might feel like life is not good, there is nothing good that is happening to us.

Yes, you read that right in dull/sad moments, a gratitude jar is going to be life-changing.

On those dull/sad moments, take your jar, open those gratitude papers (or gratitude dose), one by one, and read them till the time you feel uplifted again.

These gratitude doses or gratitude papers are really effective.

They have the power to remind you that, "Though it is a sad or dull moment, you still have a lot more in your life to be thankful for. People who love you, friends who stand by you, things that make your life really easy. Don't take those people and things for granted, not all have the privilege to have those around them. This dull moment is just a phase of life that will pass very soon. Have A hope".

Being a strong believer in gratitude, I really like the idea of a gratitude jar and made one for myself.

What about you, do you like the idea?

Will you make one for yourself?

What are the things for which your are really thankful in life?

Start making list of those, get nice jar, get small colorful papers and write down things your are grateful for on those paper. One gratitude on one paper, and fill your gratitude jar.

Keep doing this whenever you come across gratitude moment.

Open those gratitude dose in sad or dull moment.
