Name three good things from your day

Think of three specific things that went well today and say why.

Why it helps

Looking for what went right trains your attention to notice more than problems. Many people find specifics work better than general thankfulness.

How to do it

1. Pause at the end of the day and recall three things that went well.
2. Write each in one sentence.
3. Add a few words on why each one happened.
