00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Clyde Lee Dennis here and today in our seven Good

2
00:00:02.680 --> 00:00:06.440
<v Speaker 1>Minutes extra segment, our thought for today is joy is

3
00:00:06.480 --> 00:00:10.480
<v Speaker 1>the simplest form of gratitude. This quote beautifully captures the

4
00:00:10.599 --> 00:00:14.480
<v Speaker 1>essence of how gratitude manifests in our lives. Joy is

5
00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:17.359
<v Speaker 1>an emotion we all seek, and it often comes from

6
00:00:17.399 --> 00:00:20.879
<v Speaker 1>appreciating the small things. When we take the time to

7
00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:23.920
<v Speaker 1>be thankful, even for the little moments, we invite joy

8
00:00:23.960 --> 00:00:27.120
<v Speaker 1>into our hearts. The wisdom in this quote is profound.

9
00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:30.160
<v Speaker 1>It reminds us that joy doesn't have to be complicated

10
00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:34.520
<v Speaker 1>our grandiose It's about acknowledging and cherishing the everyday blessings,

11
00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:37.520
<v Speaker 1>from a warm cup of coffee in the morning to

12
00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:40.799
<v Speaker 1>a friendly smile from a stranger. These moments of gratitude

13
00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:43.799
<v Speaker 1>create a ripple effect of happiness. So how can we

14
00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:46.920
<v Speaker 1>apply this to our daily lives. Start by keeping a

15
00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:51.320
<v Speaker 1>gratitude journal. Each day, write down three things you're thankful for.

16
00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:55.759
<v Speaker 1>They don't have to be significant events, just small, meaningful moments.

17
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:59.240
<v Speaker 1>Over time, this practice trains your mind to focus on

18
00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:03.439
<v Speaker 1>the positive, naturally increasing your joy. Here's a thought provoking

19
00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:06.480
<v Speaker 1>question for you, what small act of gratitude can you

20
00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:10.480
<v Speaker 1>incorporate into your routine to bring more joy into your life. Now,

21
00:01:10.519 --> 00:01:13.159
<v Speaker 1>let's set a positive tone for the day with this affirmation.

22
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:16.560
<v Speaker 1>I am grateful for the simple joys in my life

23
00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:20.439
<v Speaker 1>and I welcome happiness into my heart. Remember, the path

24
00:01:20.519 --> 00:01:24.400
<v Speaker 1>to personal growth is paved with gratitude and positivity. Until

25
00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:27.159
<v Speaker 1>next time, I'm Clydeleigh Dennis and this has been seven
