What's the Diff between Attitude of Gratitude vs. 30 Days Thankful Challenges?
Published: Tue, 10/29/19
Hi, name! Someone asked a good question today. They wanted to know the difference between the Attitude of Gratitude and 30 Days Thankful Challenges PLR packages from Wordfeeder. These are just two different gratitude challenges that I wrote so that my customers can continue to feed quality content to their readers. They are different because each is written from scratch and contains new ideas. But also, they're just different from a
value standpoint.
The Attitude of Gratitude content contains more words (about 17500) PLUS you get 4 versions of it - 4 different holiday versioned files to download from your member area. So you can run it any time of year, not just Thanksgiving. I'm running a coupon for that one. You get $20 off with coupon code ATTITUDEOFGRATITUDE2019. The offer ends on Halloween!
The 30 Days Thankful only comes with about 14K words, and there is only ONE version. I'll paste some content samples here for you to compare the writing, length of each "day" and what's included. If you purchased one of these last year, you might want a different one to share this year. It's up to you!
Here's a sample from Attitude of Gratitude 30-Day Challenge...
Attitude of Gratitude - Day 2: Accentuate the Positive
To cultivate an attitude of gratitude starts with being able to see the positive. Of course, some things are obviously a plus - like a free lunch, a beautiful day, a perfect parking spot or an unexpected check in the mail. It's easy to be grateful for those little moments that bring us joy.
What's a little more difficult is being able to see the good in an adverse situation. Sometimes you might feel like everything's going wrong. You don't have enough to pay the credit card bill this month. Your child got in trouble in school today. You had to say goodbye to a beloved pet. The checkout lines at Wal-mart seemed to take forever.
More and more, it seems like people are ready to jump in with a criticism or negative remark. We have the social media outlets for immediate gratification. Someone got on your last nerve today? Broadcast it on Facebook and talk about how angry you feel and how they inconvenienced you.
Practicing finding the positive in these situations.
The credit card bill went up, but it's only because you had to get the car fixed. At least now the car will be running smoothly so you can get where you need to go. At least you have a credit card. Some people aren't even allowed to borrow money from banks. You know you'll do a good job getting this paid off in a timely fashion.
Your child got in trouble at school, but he or she has responded positively to correction. You know that tomorrow is another day, and a chance to do better. You've handled the problem responsibly and fairly, and didn't fly off the handle. You're doing the right thing as a parent, and your hard work will pay off in the long run.
You lost your best friend - the family dog. But he was up there in years, and poor health had taken its toll on his quality of life. Now your precious pup is in a better place, and free of pain. It hurts to say goodbye, but time heals all. The dog had a good life. You'll cherish the memories.
Yes, the lines at Wal-mart seemed to take forever today. But you still got what you needed, you saved money, and you made it out of there in time to get to your appointment. So, not a bad day on the whole!
Exercise 2: Find the Pearl.
Discover the positive in a negative experience.
Next time you feel like complaining, stop and consider if it's justified. Instead of letting one minor annoyance become a giant gripe session or self-pity-fest, take the difficulty for what it is: something that, while irritating, also made you think and perhaps even caused you to learn something.
A better and more productive exercise for the long term might just be to teach yourself to see the good even through the hard times and petty annoyances of daily life.
A flat tire made you late for work? Yes, but a nice person stopped to offer roadside assistance. You didn't get into a car wreck - that's a big positive. You needed new tires anyway, and now you can check this task off your list.
You gained five pounds on your so-called diet? Yes, but you threw some wonderful family parties and cooked delicious food, and you'll do better with your weight loss goals starting on Monday.
Journal It.
Surely there will be at least one thing that gets on your nerves each day. Instead of slipping into a pessimistic mindset, search for the underlying lesson. What did you learn? What good thing may come of this experience? Having an attitude of gratitude means digging deeper to find the gold.
If--end--
And here's a sample from the 30 Days Thankful Challenge...
Day 3: Thankful for People Who Care
Wherever you are right now, take a look around.
Are you someplace out in the open, like a busy coffee shop? Maybe you're traveling public transportation to or from work.
Even if you're holed up at home, think of the last time you stepped out of the house. Maybe it was a trip to the grocery store. Perhaps you dropped the kids off for an activity, or to see a friend.
When you look around that place where you are, or where you were the last time you were out, what do you see? Smiling faces? The occasional glance of a friendly and sympathetic pair of eyes?
What happened when you were out? Did someone take time out of their busy day to help you? Were you offered a cheerful hello? Did someone smile at your joke, or open a door for you to pass through?
Think about being out in the world of busy people. What do you think would happen if an emergency situation transpired? Suppose someone became ill, or an accident happened? More likely than not, you would quickly find that people were ready and willing to come to your aid.
You, too, would be likely to offer help and assistance. Wouldn't you?
Although the hustle and bustle of life can sometimes leave us feeling disconnected, like we're just going through the motions, it's just a perception and not the truth.
The truth is that by and large, people do still care. We see it on the news each day, something happens and some kind soul steps in to help, offer support, say kind words. For every tragedy or thoughtless act, you probably have 100 or more people who would step in to add something positive or lend a hand.
A spirit of humanity and brotherly and sisterly love is ever-present. Humans ultimately do care about one another.
JOURNAL EXERCISE: Give thanks for the caring spirit of others.
Today, think of five different episodes in your life this week where people showed that they care. What did they do or say that indicated their kindness or generosity
If you can't seem to jog a memory of this, go back in your mind to the past week's activities.
Did you go to a store? What happened while you were there?
If you have children, did you have an opportunity to speak to your child's teacher this week? What did he or she say or do that indicated that this person cares about your child and his or her future education?
Did you speak with someone on the phone who had to help you solve a problem? What did they do or say that went above and beyond, to communicate their human decency and wish to help?
What about coworkers? Who at your work showed you that they care this week? What did they do or say to let you know that they're on your team?
What about the news headlines? Was there a glimmer of kindness in the face of adversity? Did you read about people helping people? The goodness of humans is truly an extraordinary thing.
Come up with a total of 8 examples of good people doing good for others.
Did this exercise help you give thanks for the kindness of humans?
