I want my kids to be curious, to be interested in a lot of things, to be confident, and to feel they belong in any number of situations.

'Thank you power' is writing down the moments that are good in your life so that you can go back and reflect on them - so you've got this sort of repository of good stuff in your past.

It is hard to get in the habit of forcing yourself to find three things on a regular basis that you are grateful for.

There is a comfort in rituals, and rituals provide a framework for stability when you are trying to find answers.

I sensed that my life was better when I focused on things that were working as opposed to focusing on the long list that goes wrong, but I wanted to know if there was any validity to that.

If I have time to exercise, I do it, but I don't fixate on numbers like weight or waist size. Numbers don't work for me.
