Our challenge to you: Start recording in your glad journal every day. Write down something from the day for which you are grateful, something that you learned, one thing that you appreciated, and something that delighted your soul.

After several days and several weeks of recording in your glad journal, you will notice that your energy is focusing more on the positive things in your life.
