The Useful Strong Stuff Journal Vol. 7

Strength in all things is important.  We must constantly be building these strengths.  We can do this through reading, experience, and experimentation. 

My latest experiments have revolved around gratitude practices.  These experiments have really put me into a much more peaceful place.  I was skeptical at first about gratitude practices, but went in with an open mind.  I am glad I gave these things a try.  You can learn more about my experiences here https://nehemiah.co/happy/a-most-grateful-practice/  .

Here are some strong things I have been reading lately.  I recommend you read them as well and perhaps implement an idea or two from them.
