I have started a daily 'The Good Stuff' section of my journal. It makes me focus on the good stuff like a satisfying meal, a blue sky, a chat with my 92 year old Dad and pieces like this on Substack. Thanks Jack.
I love that, Robyn. The simple, free things really are the best parts of life, aren't they? Daily written gratitude for those things makes your outlook so much more optimistic. The Five Minute Journal, which I have used before, contains a similar gratitude practice. It's something I should get back to so thanks for the nudge here.
That's amazing your Dad is 92 -- sounds like you have longevity genes in your family! Thanks for reading and showing up in the comments, Robyn :)
It's wonderful to hear you are back in the habit of writing and publishing -- it's one of the most rewarding things you can do! Excited to read some of your writing in the coming weeks.
Substack is a lot of fun. So many amazing people, interesting ideas, and overall good vibes. By far my favourite place on the internet to hang out.

I can definitely learn to be more positive with my inner self talk! Thanks for the reminder 🙏
I certainly can too! Thanks for reading and for leaving a comment here :)
Beautiful tribute and on point question Jack.
Thank you.
Kind wishes from Berlin,

Thanks so much for reading and showing up in the comments, Jim. I appreciate it.
Was a pleasure to stumble across this here Jack!
I've been so busy the last months so haven't been reading enough of what others are putting out.
Thanks for replying - cool to touch base!
How's Substack going?
I'm greatly enjoying having finally ritualised my writing and publishing habit.
Take care, Jim
