Mindfulness is the practice of being fully present and aware of the present moment without judgment. It is an essential tool in developing patience.

How we think about ourselves and our abilities directly impacts our actions, behaviors, and relationships. A growth mindset means success comes with constant personal development. However, it doesn’t necessarily mean staying positive all the time. Instead, that development comes from consistent learning and perseverance. 

A growth mindset is a basis of understanding that where you are and where you want to be requires effort. It doesn’t just happen because all of the pieces fell together. Without a growth mindset, you can find yourself stuck. 

When you adapt to a growth mindset, you become more willing to accept challenges, try new things, and build new skills. A growth mindset allows you to manifest something and continuously work towards it because you know that you can do it with development.

Have you ever found yourself in the space of questioning? You are unsure of what's next, and clarity is lacking. We let these emotions weigh us down and put us in a negative state. This is where the role of gratitude shines through. Gratitude is an emotion that grounds us and raises our vibration out of the negative and into the positive, which can shift our entire mindset. Why? Because we simply sit in a space that allows us to reflect on what we have and all we've been given. 

Gratitude can help you get clear by focusing on the positive aspects of your life. When you are grateful, you are more likely to see the good in people and situations, which can help you make better decisions aligned with your spirit. When we are grateful, we are more likely to be happy and have positive outlooks on life. Additionally, gratitude can help us to build strong relationships, as we are more likely to show appreciation for others. We begin to incorporate mindfulness into our routine.
