Gratefulness Treasure Hunt: A Grounding Exercise
In this episode, you heard me talk you through this gratefulness treasure hunt. Now, use your gratefulness treasure hunt as a grounding exercise via journaling to help you get yourself, your mind, and your people (if you’re a leader) focused and in the moment and present with whoever you’re with right now. Over the next 90 days…
- Acknowledge Benchmarks – record in journal where you are now in that area, include the date and any other important numbers like weight or time spent on the task or money spent
- Celebrate Milestones – record in journal progress you made at specific intervals (e.g., 1 day or 1 week or 1 month from the benchmark date)

- Soul
- Body
- Finances
- Relationships
- Career
- Academics
