Celebrating #NationalGratitudeMonth
Considering that November is #NationalGratitudeMonth I plan on focusing more thoughts and time to developing gratitude. Do you feel like it’s something you could improve in your life, too?
I found some great quotes on gratitude and I wanted to share them with you. Feel free to use any of them in your planner. Many of these quotes would work well in your planner or bullet journal. In fact, many of them would work well inscribed on a wall.
Gratitude isn’t just for #NationalGratitudeMonth in November. I know I need to include the practice of celebrating gratefulness more often in my life. In fact, I’d like to make it a daily practice, more so than I do right now. But what better time to start than now?

Want More Quotes? Here’s My Growing List
Quotes are and forever will be among my favorite things in this world. So I will strive to share more with you. View my list of quote-related blog posts.
Which Gratitude Quotes Do You Like the Most?
After reading some of these quotes, I know I am lacking in the gratitude department and will strive to live with an attitude of gratitude. Which ones are your favorite or how would you classify the gratitude quotes?
If what they say is true, gratitude will help enhance your life, bring more meaning to your days, make you see clearly the true blessings in your life and enhance the peace you feel.
I am all for these things, and if you are too, let’s try adding a little more gratitude every day to our lives. Rather than feel guilty, let’s become more grateful. We can do this, together.
Because I want to be sure that expressing more gratitude actually works, I plan on writing either a sentence or a word that I’m grateful for every day in November. Either dedicating a page in my planner for the word or phrase or writing it in my journal. Do you want to express more gratitude as well? And as a result of your gratitude experiment, what do you think it will do to your outlook on life?

I definitely need these in my life. I was just thumbing through my journal realizing that I do not give gratitude the time it deserves. Maybe I can use these quotes to work on my lettering. This way I’m getting the gratitude thoughts flowing and getting better at my lettering at the same time!
Me too, girl. I want to use next month to start focusing on being more grateful and more forgiving. Both things I need in my life! I tried doing a gratitude journal and one line per day but didn’t follow through. That’s the problem is not giving priority and not following through!
