We can search out feelings that need our attention.
We can look for old ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving.
We can look for mistakes that need correcting.
But a critical part of our inventory can focus on what we're doing right and on all that is good around us.
Look fearlessly, with a loving, positive eye.
What did you do right today?
Did you behave differently today than you would have a year ago?
Did you reach out to someone and allow yourself to be vulnerable?
Did you have a bad day but dealt effectively with it?
Did you practice gratitude or acceptance?
Did you take a risk, own your power, or set a boundary?
Did you take responsibility for yourself in a way that you might not have before?
Did you take time for prayer or meditation?
Did you trust God?
Did you let someone do something for you?
Did you behave differently today than you would have a year ago?
Did you reach out to someone and allow yourself to be vulnerable?

Did you take responsibility for yourself in a way that you might not have before?
Did you take time for prayer or meditation?
Did you trust God?
Did you let someone do something for you?
Even on our worst days, we can find one thing we did right. We can find something to feel hopeful about. We can find something to look forward to.
God, help me let go of my need to stay immersed in negativity. I can change the energy in my environment and myself from negative to positive. I will affirm the good until it sinks in and feels real. I will also strive to find one quality that I like about someone else who's important to me, and I will take the risk of telling him or her that.
