Welcome to the cumulative page for all of the #FiveThings ever created {for SF at least}. What are #FiveThings, you ask? I’ve decided that I want to make Friday’s {or Saturday’s if Friday gets too busy..it happens} a type of positive and reflective day, a look back on the week and a peek ahead at what’s in store. Let’s call it a friendly, personal reminder to look at the positives once a week. It really helps you have a better perspective on life in general. There’s only one rule- it has to have happened to you within the seven days before your list.
So I challenge you, every week, no matter what’s going on, think of five things that made this past week great for you and list them. There’s no excuse, there are always at least five things you can be thankful for. Did you workout this week? Do you have a roof over your head? Do you have love and support from family/friends? Did you get a good meal every day this week? Did you breathe? Did you smile? Did you have clean water?
OR it can be something MUCH simpler. Did you find a new favorite workout song or moisturizer? Are you about to go on a trip? See a great movie? Have a good hair day? Did someone bring you coffee to work? This is a judgement free zone, whatever happens that makes you happy is awesome.
If I’m sharing my Five Things for the week, I also want to see everyone else’s! So, we’re trying a little experiment. On any form of social media {Facebook, Twitter, Insta, your own personal blog}, list your five things, with the hashtag #FiveThingsSF…I wanna see ’em! Let’s create a happy community, together! 🙂 The more you do it, the more you’ll start to look forward to Friday’s so you can make your list. It will also cause you to be more attentive to what’s happening to you during your week. Often times I just keep a running list in the “Notes” section of my phone and as something happens I write a quick one or two word blurb about it. Then on Friday I see what actually makes the cut.
Starting from the first one: {for about 5 seconds, I used to call this “High Five Friday”…mehh, too cheesy for me, so I switched it. If you see a “High Five Friday” in there somewhere, it’s all in the same wheelhouse}.
