Why track gratitude journaling?
Gratitude notes are quick to write and easy to forget. A dedicated folder makes them easy to reread on hard days.
Tips that help
- Be specific: "the coffee with Sam" beats "my friends".
- Keep all entries in one Gratitude folder so you can scroll back.
- Pair it with an existing evening habit, like setting an alarm.
