Top 5 Ways to Feel Gratitude in Challenging Times


Times of trouble can make it more difficult for you to find gratitude in your heart. They can make you turn to anger or resentment. However, you can still show gratitude despite challenging issues in your life. 

If challenging times are affecting your ability to see gratitude, consider these ideas:

1. Search for the positive. 

You may be going through a stressful or difficult period in your life, but it shouldn't stop you from seeing positive things.

* What are the positive areas in your life that aren't being affected by your current challenges? Do you still have your home and health? Do you still have a job that provides for your family?

* By focusing on the positive aspects of your life, you'll find areas in which you can still feel thankful.

2. Treasure the small details. 

It's easy to lose sight of the small details if you're overwhelmed by a difficult situation at home or at work. However, if you learn to treasure the details, you'll welcome gratitude back into your life.

* Are you happy with a new paint color at home? Are you proud of a small project at work? Did you finish a long book? These small details can make a big difference in your gratitude levels.

* You can show your appreciation for the little things by making a list of everything that needs your love.

3. Search for joy. 

It's important to add joy to your daily schedule. Watch a comedy, read a comic book, or share jokes with friends. Add laughter to your routine.

* Laughter can help you notice the areas that need gratitude in your life.

* Joy can help you feel appreciation toward your family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors.

4. Put your pain in perspective. 

Make it a point to avoid getting lost in the negative emotions of your challenges by looking at others.

* If you can put your pain in perspective, you'll discover that there are others who have even more challenges than you. If you're worried about your house, job, or health, think about those who have even less.

* Perspective can help you understand that everyone faces difficult challenges. You're not alone, and you can still feel grateful for other things in your life.

5. Understand the power of change. 

Change is a regular part of existence, but when you're struggling, you might feel as if your life will never change.

* Remind yourself that changes occur all the time, and change can lead to gratitude.

* You can show your gratitude by recognizing that changes occur and can lead to better things. If you feel trapped and stagnant, keep in mind that a transformation is possible. It may take time, friends, effort, and perseverance, but you'll get past your difficult situation. 


Your ability to find gratitude doesn't have to be limited during challenges. Search for the positive areas in your life, even as you struggle in other areas. 

Remember that you're not alone and that everything changes. Soon, you'll find yourself feeling the gratitude that you seem to have lost.


I'll be adding more themes to the range of Gratitude Journals and Thankfulness Diaries, so keep checking here for the latest releases of my journals:    https://amzn.to/2Kk2REb

Does Nature Inspire You To Journal?


Finally started working on a new paperback self discovery interactive journal... using a "nature" theme for the graphics and journal prompts.

I'm using self reflection statements and self discovery prompts, on beautiful nature images.

Still learning how, don't know photoshop so it requires a lot of ingenuity on my part to work it all out.

Enjoying creating these images!



Hopefully the first one will be available in the next week or so.

Does nature inspire you to learn life's lessons, to ponder your seasonal changes in life?

Check out here for updates:

Wow! How can it possibly be February already?

So much has been happening, I can't even begin to tell you.  But among all the good, bad, ugly things happening, I'm still powering away on the creation of new Journals and notebooks for you to use.

I've personalized so many of my diaries, planners and notebooks by creating monogrammed A-Z covers for them, so that is always a bit of fun when selecting your designs.

The rest of the time I'm having a ball creating gorgeous (OK I'm biased - LOL) cover designs to inspire you to use your journals and notebooks every day.

Have a look at these!

"Strategic Publications"

and since so many people love pretty covers, there are a series of 2018 Planners with covers like roses I have a series of them (pictured above)

In fact, I'm creating new designs every week and have nearly 300 books available for you to select from - go me!

This week I'm creating a series of 3 year journals for you... I love this kind of journal and tracker, where I can review my results over the years.




Anyway, you can check out more of my paperback books and notebooks here:

Amazon: Strategic Publications

Author site:  Helene Malmsio

 And I've even started making themed sets of books and stationery... calendars, journals, address book, bullet journals etc. like in the Butterfly theme above.  Deliciously gorgeous!

For those people on Committees and members of Clubs that need to organize their meeting minutes and Activity agendas, I've created a range for you too!

What fun hey?  The retro design Social Club book is proving very popular!  Check out if your Club could use any of these for their 2018 meeting minutes and financial records!

Diaries - Journals - Planners: Created with Love

I started the year working on the free CFS report I wanted to release, and I ended the year creating paperback diaries, journals, BuJo bullet journals, and planners.  

Well, I love using beautiful and functional diaries for my scheduling and planning every year.  I can never find what I like so I usually end up creating my own designs and photocopying pages to insert into whatever diary I have bought to use.

This year I decided to create and publish my own diaries, and if I say so myself, they are gorgeous!

And I'm loving the creation process!

The cover designs are varied, from feminine, to masculine, to niche pet lovers... the whole gamut.

There are also illustrated pages, colour page planners, and undated 'any year' planners that you can start and finish at the time of year you want.

Have a look at a few of the designs here, and visit Amazon to see the whole range by searching for "Strategic Publications" and "Helene Malmsio":
