Monday Musings: LOA for Writers

Gratitude is a powerful magnet — what you appreciate multiplies.

Daily gratitude shifts focus from lack to abundance. In writing, this means acknowledging small victories: finishing a paragraph, learning from edits, or submitting a query. Gratitude keeps momentum alive even when the road is long and can help you keep things in perspective when frustration sets in.

Something like:

• “I’m grateful I wrote 500 words today.”
• “I appreciate the feedback from my critique group.”
• “I’m grateful for my writing community.”
• “I’m grateful for the creativity I’ve been gifted.”

Try This:
Keep a daily gratitude journal just for writing. If you already keep a writing journal, you can incorporate gratitude there. If you don’t, start a new journal to fill with gratitude. What writer would turn down the opportunity to buy yet another notebook? Not me! List 3 things every day that you’re thankful for, no matter how small and take a moment to really feel it. Feel the warm glow that gratitude ignites within you. Notice how it changes your energy. At the end of the year, flip through your gratitude journal and let the positive energy there energize you for the next year. Notice where you may have just been going through the motions and where you can plainly see you were truly and deeply grateful.

Gratitude isn’t passive reflection — it fuels creativity and resilience. Feel free to share some of your gratitude entries in the comments. I’ll bet there are others with similar entries!
