REFLECTION QUESTIONHealthHow does/can practicing gratitude keep you centered and motivated to work for a better world?
Amanda Gillette 10/25/2020 1:46 PMI love sending emails to friends, mentors, professors, and others, because not only is it a way to show my gratitude for their support of me, but also a way to keep both them and myself motivated to share that kindness. Sending a thankful note to someone, even for the smallest things, can brighten their day, and that kindness has a chain reaction. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONHealthWhat's your favorite activity(ies) in which you experience joy while being active and moving?
