In 2019, I’m thankful for: my wonderful husband, my rewarding job, and my comfortable home.
Things that could have made this past year better: running with more regularity every week, keeping my paperwork more organized, and keeping my weight in check.
Sounds like you have a lot to be grateful for. Maybe 2020 could be “Running Year” for you and your husband 🏃♀️🏃♂️

Yo Neville!
I’m grateful for these things in 2019 (long post incoming):
Things I can do better:
I can probably go on forever. I”ll wrap it up here.
Thanks Neville! Keep up the good work.
Wow, Tim. So glad to hear about your recovery! That sounds like it was extremely tough, but it sounds like it forced you into some major personal growth!
Thanks Mitch,
Sometimes you really need to stare right into the abyss.
Then punch it right in the nutsack.

In 2019:
I am grateful to be alive due to illness.
I am grateful for all the things I have seen or done and what I will do in the future.
I am grateful for the life I have had and the future.
In 2019:
I could have been more focused, and written out more daily objectives along with blocking out specific times to work on them.
Well glad that you’re doing better now Kyle!
As for daily productivity, might I suggest my method that tons of people have used??

I’m grateful for my mom’s multiple brain surgeries and recovery, seeking out therapy when life got a little tough, and awesome friends/family who were there to support this entire time!
I could have improved 2019 by going to sleep on time! I think waking up refreshed could have given me more time to workout and schedule other areas I’d like to grow in.
Nothing is more important than your family health, glad everything is going smoothly!
I’m grateful for achieving 5,00,000INR(8500USD) monthly income, but not consistently earning throughout the year. But I’m happy, because it’s little great money in India. All came from doing content marketing and saas SEO services to my clients. One of my client ranking on page 1 for “review generation software” keyword. So things went really well. My girl friend breakup with me, that’s a bad news for me too. But I am recovering from that. Took courses from Dan Martell, Chris Von Gilbert, Video fruit, etc. Learned a lot and its helping me a lot. Got few replies from your buddy Taco Noah Kagan. Started building my dream home without taking home loan from bank :) Wish me success. I want to be like you in SAAS SEO & Content marketing, I know you and Noah sharing in a video, that you are blogging since 1990ssssssss :D Just sharing my goal. I am grateful for posting my first comment on your blog
That is awesome Daniel, and a TON of money for India!!
If you ever need any help let us know :)
Thanks. I will ask you out. :) Because I want to be like you!
1. I’m grateful for botching my interviews and assignments which motivates me to improve.
2. I’m grateful for the freelance writing opportunities to better improve my skills.
3. I’m grateful for my supportive friends who always have my back.
I could have improved on my time management skills and focus on my tasks instead of getting distracted to get better results for my endeavours.
Hey Sharmaine, you have a good attitude about failure. It’s just a way to learn (and it’s ok if it temporarily makes you feel sad, it’s supposed to).
As for time management, I will say to this day I still use THIS method every single day:

Grateful for the gift of life. Nothing can compare with that.
Good health.
For discovering copy writing.
Life is always good! For trillions of miles in any direction outside of this little blue ball there’s not much life, so we’re pretty lucky!
Glad you discovered copywriting….I made a video about my journey to discover it while owning an eCommerce business:

In 2019, I’m grateful for
1. How my mom, brother, and I handled the logistics of my dad dying and took care of mom who was fully dependent on my dad prior to his death. The three of us fumbled with paperwork and learning the ropes but it’s it hasn’t been a full year yet and we’re still standing and sometimes we’re able to laugh together.
2. i’m still struggling income-wise with working for myself but i’ve outearned what i earned last year
3. landed my first paid travel gig.
In 2019, I could have improved by doing less free work, charging more, and saying no more often.
Starting your own business can sometimes feel like a slow process, but as long as you’re moving in the right direction, that’s the most important thing!
Hey Linda, heard you’re a famous Instagrammer now!!
Also you’re starting to dominate some of the Chapel Hill search results, awesome job :)

1. I’m grateful for getting fired and being wise enough to save hecka money to live off of while I started a new biz that finally is getting sales now.
2. Snowboarding for the first time ever in Vail. My ass never hurt so bad! Also traveled to the Phillipines and met tons of family.
3. Personal growth. I had lots of shitty things happen to me but it made me stronger and wiser. Constant growth and learning helped me overcome mental anguish and depression. Having good friends helped too.
I couldve worked harder and focused more on me and self care instead of trying to please and help everybody when I wasnt in a good position to be my best self for them.
Sometimes getting fired can be a blessing in disguise!
1.) Nice! I’ve heard so many success stories from getting fired.

2.) Vail is dope.
3.) Awesome. Remember that comparatively your life is amazing, and about 5 billion people would literally doing anything to be where you’re at now:
Well said Neville
Being grateful for where we are and I am; an awesome place in my life, lucky enough to to be doing something that I enjoy doing; Work, now that is an interesting place to be at.
On another note is its equally important to be appreciated for what you do, by your family, peer’s n friends.
Work with God in mind n to not do wrong by your fellow human beings is my mantra; that keeps me on the straight n narrow.
God bless us all.
I’m grateful:
That my dog is now fit & strong after her health problems this year.
That I found the strength to forgive someone who wasn’t sorry.
That I finally managed to get on top of and maintain my health & fitness.
Improvements:
Should’ve started my business before the end of the year.
Should’ve saved more money than I did.
Should’ve been more open to the potential of a personal relationship.
(AKA I should’ve stopped constantly procrastinating!!!!)
Forgiveness can be tough…happy to hear you were able to do it, that was good for the heart ♥️
Awww glad da pup is doing better 😊
Good you know your improvement areas, you can start on them ASAP!! Let us know if we can help.
Hey all,
I just wanna say that the three things I’m grateful for this year are:
1. Having had the chance to travel to Japan and China to work for different businesses with different job titles. It was an amazing experience and I wouldn’t change it for the world!
2. Coming home finally and getting settled in to my old life. I know I have a lot to do coming up but I’m confident that with my new skills and outlook on life, I will be able to hit the ground running and build a life that I desire and am proud of!
3. Meeting friends and family
I’ve met a ton of new people this year and quite a few of them have helped me see the potential I have to be better than I was before. I hope to prove them right and make the rest of 2019 the most productive transition period of my life.
It’s gonna take a lot of focus and grit, but I’m all fired up and grateful for every minute I’m back in the land of the free and home of the brave. Let’s do this thing! 👍 👍 👍
That sounds like an awesome trip, Daniel! Adventures like that can really change your outlook on life. Hope next year is as good as this one!
1.) Both amazing places. Japan IS the future, and China WILL be the future.
2.) Awesome, but make sure to setup your processes and systems so you succeed based on those and not just rely on will power:

3.) Sounds like you’re pumped, but MAKE SURE YOU SYSTEMETIZE THIS! When it comes to friends and fam I think small little events like “just come hang at my place on Tuesday after dinner” are far more effective than big events.
Im grateful for rediscovering my work passion with a company I’ve been with for a long time. The rediscovery happened by moving to another area after being in a position far too long. Rediscover reading and writing. I need to improve my writing (Yo, Neville!) so, 2020 will see me joining Kopywriting Kourse!
Improve:
Having just turned 61 y/o yesterday, my tank still has gas in it so:
* Health with running once again, lifting weights and expand my food tastes.
* Transition to a second chapter of my work life to keep me on my toes. TBD will be the fun I believe!
Travel!!
Hey Richard, rediscovering your passion is huge! Keep up the great work and we’ll done with the exercise, I hope I’m still running around in my sixties!
Thanks Mitch! I’m sure you’ll have mo problem keeping the fire & passion lit!
Heyoo Richard sounds like you’ve still got tons of life to live, and you should fill it with things that are worthwhile to you.
Writing is a big part of my life (it was even a big part far before I realized money could be made from it), and has been a real joy….hope you get even more joy out of it also!
Neville, I’m sure my passion will be stoked by the Kopywriting Kourse! Cheers to 2020!
Hey there! I’m really grateful for
1) Starting my business, which is doing okay’ ish
2) meditating for 217 days straight, including today.
3) exploring a self which was lost and hidden for a looonggg timee.
But guess what, I still have 7 more weeks, and oh boy! I’m gonna crush my online business and move out of my parents home to a different city ( p.s. I’m in India and 19). It’s gonna be a big move.
I’m super excited for the change and new things that will happen in 2020.
Let’s crush the last few weeks!!!
Love the attitude, Sash! You’re right, there’s still plenty of time left in the year to reach those goals!
That’s awesome Sash! Also everyone’s first small business does “okayish” at first. It’s about learning, implementing, iterating, and repeating that process.
Best of luck killing it!
In 2019 I am grateful for:
1. Finding a new hobby in stand up comedy
2. Gaining confidence in being a content writer
3. Finding new friends and having a great family
To improve
1. Less negativity
2. More exercise
3. Fewer trips to the local public house
Confidence is everything when it comes to freelance writing – keep up the great work!
Oh nice….sounds like you’ve got a lot of positives, and easily fixable improvements :)
Hello, everyone! I love reading posts like this!
I am grateful for:
I need to improve:
I love these exercises too! Sometimes it’s easy to forget all the good things that happened to you unless you consciously take the time to reflect :-)
That’s awesome Micah!
I would suggest for socializing more is to have a bunch of “micro parties.” I used to throw co-working days at my place, I still invite 2-4 people over at a time allll the time etc….this fosters more connection than throwing the occasional giant party where you’re playing host to tons of people and can’t connect too well.
I would also suggest finding a “Third Place” you can hang out.
I am grateful for landing up a wonderful copywriting opportunity with a reputed company, improve upon my writing skills and finally accepting the fact that I am just as much a dentist as I am a writer.
I wish I could improve more upon my upper back strength and effective hours put into writing.
Congrats on the copywriting opportunity, Gauri!
Oh nice, that’s awesome Gauri you’re both!
Also Mitch is working on a post about stretches for writers as we speak, so look out for that!
I am grateful for having new opportunities to work as a freelance writer
I am grateful for good health throughout the year
I am grateful to have a loving and supportive family
Congrats on the new freelance writing gigs, Kalis. Keep up the great work!
Looks like you’re killing it Kalis :)
1) I am grateful for even being born in this wonderful era with so much opportunity
2) i am grateful that i have a roof and all the essentials to live comfortably
3) i am grateful for having good health and a supportive mother
Things i could improve:
1) socialize more
2) eliminate fear from my life
3) start taking action
I love #1! It’s easy to take for granted all the amazing opportunities we have now that they didn’t in the past
2. The Internet With internet I can learn new skills, do online shopping and work from home
I need to improve on my health and expediate my course at soonest possible
I love when strangers help each other…we need more of that in the world! :-)
The interest is the greatest productivity and learning tool ever devised. YouTube alone is a treasure trove of any skill on the planet.
Get that knowledge 😎

Three things I’m most grateful for:
*That family worked well together to sell my dad’s property without strife/discord
*Sharing windfall inheritance with my son
* Good Health
Improvement:
*Weight loss
*Weight loss
*Weight loss
It’s awesome to hear a family working together with money at stake. And good luck with the weight loss, you can do it!
Awesome Ruth!
….and I see weight loss might be a priority :)
This is not a promo or anything, but the only program I’ve seen like 99.5% success with is https://www.mybodytutor.com/ …..I’ve used it twice over the years, the first time was with great success, and the 2nd time I needed a “brush up” 6 years later to lose weight.
It’s the only thing I’ve seen that doesn’t rely on weird fad diets and severe restrictions…..so it’s actually a maintainable thing. I maintain my weight pretty well since then, and still eat the stuff I enjoy.
In 2019,
I’m grateful for the health of my family and friends.
I’m grateful for the things I own and have. Less is more.
I am grateful for the kind of opportunity I am blessed to grow up and be exposed to.
I could have improved 2019 by looking after my health, being more productive and accountability.
Totally agree with less is more!
Hey Michael, sounds like you’re killing it. The health and productivity can always be improved.
One productivity trick I have: If I work around other people who can see my computer screen, I work way harder every single time.
Hi everyone! So far this year, I’m grateful for
And a bonus one…
Looking forward to reading more comments. What about you Neville?
Holy smokes! Sounds like you crushed it this year, way to go man!
Welp it sounds like you’re off to a good start Matt!
For me some things I’m grateful for:
⇨ Family stuff happened this year and our friends and family kicked into high gear with love and support all around. I feel lucky to have a gigantic and rock solid support network nurtured by my parents before me.
⇨ Oddly enough I’m happy I rent an apartment and didn’t buy a where I live. I was able to pick up and move to an even better location.
⇨ New York for the summer was awesome.
⇨ Having been able to setup life the way I like it.
Things I could’ve improved on:
🚫 I don’t think I work hard as I can or should. My work life is often pretty cushy, and I think pushing maybe 25% harder would produce 200%+ larger results.
I could have improved my faith. Fears regarding my family and partner, the pregnancy, money, having a business and career, life.. took over and I didn’t need to freak out so much. I got through and even solved most problems. Faith over fear in 2020
I could have bought a new pram earlier to exercise with kids and also just chosen 1 online course to work through and finish. I could also have set up website back ups and made friends.. but the whole stress thing made me not think as well.
