Turn your “I have to’s” into “I get to’s” and your whole energy will shift. … I ‘get to’ develop this plan. … I ‘get to’ prep for the meeting. … I ‘get to’ work out today. … I ‘get to’ (fill in the blank with any task you may put off or dread) You’ll start to realize the many opportunities you have to impact those around you when you put this reframing in place, and you’ll take your power back by owning the way you frame your thinking. I find that when I intentionally do this, it unlocks more creativity and overall excitement for my life. This works just as well for the stories we tell ourselves about our experiences. Reframing challenging past seasons in your life as opportunities that shaped you, built grit or taught you lessons is a powerful way to free yourself from destructive negative narratives. Think “I ‘got to’ be tested in that way”, or “I got to prove to myself that I was capable of XYZ…”. A total shift! #gratitude and #attitude are everything.

The right people are what truly make an organization. When you have a team that shares the same values and commitment, it’s not just the work that gets done—it’s the culture that’s built.

How was your Thanksgiving? Amid the food, family, and traditions, it’s easy to feel gratitude on a day dedicated to it. But here’s the thing—gratitude doesn’t have to be reserved for holidays or special moments. What if we looked for reasons to be thankful in the ordinary—the cup of coffee, a kind word, or even a lesson learned from a challenge? Gratitude isn’t just a feeling; it’s a practice. And like any practice, the more we engage with it, the more it shapes our perspective and, ultimately, our lives. So, as the holiday glow fades, let’s keep choosing gratitude daily. What’s one small thing you’re thankful for today?

What’s your favorite holiday tradition? Whether it’s a cozy family gathering, a special recipe you whip up every year, or a unique celebration you look forward to, we’d love to hear about it! Share your cherished traditions in the comments below and let’s spread some holiday cheer!
