#IAmChallenged - Day 9 (#IAmAliveChallenge, #LukeIsAlive, #MyHiveGoals, & #IAmEngaged)

#IAmAliveChallenge #HiveIsAlive

A part of counting your blessings is being thankful for what you have. Often, we overlook the small things...the ordinary things...the things we take for granted.

I urge you to take five minutes and make a list of all the things you are grateful for on a daily basis but don't often think about. I am thankful for the air I breath. I am thankful for running water in my house. I am thankful for the car I drive. I am thankful for my laptop. I am thankful for the Internet. I am thankful for the house I live in. I am thankful for three grocery stores within two miles of my house. I am grateful that my grown daughter still lives with my wife and I. I am thankful for the opportunity I have to use my skills and talents to serve at church. I am thankful for unemployment checks.

Make your own list and start building an attitude of gratitude. The more you are thankful for, the less you will find to complain about.

#IAmEngaged

@mjlipsey3018 - "Minion Behavior For life" is a humorous outlook on life and how we should deal with life's stresses.

@steevc - "Hive newbies, think before you vote!" is a MUST READ for anyone with less than about 3000 HP.

@ph1102 - "Empower Yourself to Empower Others or Vice Versa?" caused me to rethink what it means to engage.

@jongolson - "What Happens When Life Happens As A Content Creator...?" is about getting back on the horse after life throws you a curveball.

@elianaicgomes - "Don't be an EXCUSER! - Rambles and rants #7" tells us to stop making excuses and start making content.
