10 days to go for 2026!

 Monday 22^nd Dec 2025

Day 23382

The winter solstice was yesterday, 21^st December. A time for new beginnings. It represents introspection, transition from darkness to light, and setting intentions for growth, even linked to agricultural planning in many traditions.

The countdown to 2026 has begun. Just 10 days to go!

Each of these 10 days, I shall write about one specific aspect, which I believe is imperative for a great life.

And I define a great Life as

∞       one where you tap into your fullest potential &

∞       one where you make all efforts to create the greatest impact in the world around you

These are the 10 attributes that I cherish. I believe that having these will essentially make one realize the grace and abundance that is around all of us:

∞       Gratitude

∞       Forgiveness

∞       Integrity

∞       Insight

∞       Inspiration

∞       Visualization/Manifestation

∞       Empathy

∞       Growth Mindset

∞       Resilience

∞       Self-discipline

So, the countdown begins.

22^nd Dec 2025 Day 10           GRATITUDE

Gratitude is the genuine feeling of appreciation and thankfulness for all the grace and abundance that exists all around us.

Staying anchored in an attitude of gratitude means consciously choosing to seek and express appreciation daily, shifting from reactive thanks to a more proactive recognition of life's positives.

Gratitude reduces stress, builds resilience against negative emotions like envy, and enhances overall well-being, relationships, and even physical health.

In crises, gratitude energizes and heals by reframing suffering—recalling past redemptions, focusing on overlooked gifts, and building a psychological immune system for resilience.

The How: Keeping a daily journal of three unique things that you are genuinely grateful for,, practicing mindfulness, surrounding yourself with grateful people, expressing thanks spontaneously, and committing to consistent habits to deepen this mindset.

 

Live Life to the Maximum!
