Hi Blogger!
With the year's end and holidays fast approaching, 💗gratitude is on our minds here at Red Mare.
The entrepreneurial horse life is filled with highs and lows.
As CEO of your business, you are responsible for noticing and savoring the highs to better balance yourself for the lows as a way to prevent burnout.
And if you lead a team, it's important you do this for your staff too.
Maintaining a regular gratitude practice can help you do both by highlighting what is joyful, meaningful, rewarding, and beautiful about this lifestyle of ours.
Incorporate a regular gratitude practice into your day and see how it shines a little extra sunshine 🌞 into your days.
- Keep a notebook beside your bed and record 3 things you're grateful for each night. Start your morning by rereading a few past entries.
- Keep an Applause File with nice comments and thank you notes from your clients, and read through it periodically (BONUS: ask for permission to use the best ones in your marketing!)
- Start your day with a few minutes of quietly noticing and appreciating the little comforts and beauties of your daily life— the heat in your house, the feel of your favorite gloves, the beauty of your horse's breath in the air, the smell of hay.
It's so easy to charge into what needs doing or fixing, and so easy to take for granted the things about our lives that would be delightful and enchanting to a stranger walking into it for the first time.
Whatever you do, giving thanks is a powerful part of creating and maintaining your happiness.
It's not just for the holidays!
For the Horse,
Catherine & The Red Mare Team
