I can see it, but only a little bit like when someone says there bad at this (Name Artwork) I say " At least you can even colour, some people dont have a chance to colour." I do more things for others because of being grateful of what they did for me. ( But it is not helping me because instead of doing homework I'm playing with others that can't play at their house or helping others.) The video's are somtimes boring. but it depends on what it is about, and they kinda help by giving more edvice for being grateful.

There is a difference in the way I look at discouragements. For example, today during P.E I couldn't really do a layup well, but I remembered that I could always practice more. I was thankful that we even had basketballs and other sports equipment so that we can play, and even more thankful that we had an opportunity to play. I think our focus on gratitude is helping me, because nowadays I am remembering more than ever to be thankful for everything I have. Some of the videos are interesting, because they may contain neat concepts or change the way I feel towards the theory of gratitude. Sometimes, however, the videos can be a little bit boring. The videos we watch are pretty helpful to me, because I am able to understand in numerous ways how much of an impact gratitude can give me. Remember when we watched that 2-minute video with a bunch of facts? There was so much stuff going on that I never even knew! Who knew you could increase your life span just by being grateful? I found that really neat. The video watched today was humorous, so I certainly cannot be bored by it. Like these two, some of the videos we watched were both interesting and helpful at the same time. Okay, bye!

The way I used to look at problems were very discouraging and I had a very closed mindset but now that I watched the videos that you showed us I started thinking of ways that I could improve and have a open mindset instead of a closed mindset. The first time I looked in the mirror when I got my hair cut I thought to myself I look weird with this short hair, then I remembered that I did it for a cause and that I can still grow my hair out and make it look better, then I realized that I should be more grateful for my hair because some don't have any and that I should be different from others and be unique like what Taylor Swift said "If you're lucky enough to be different, don't ever change". I find the video's boring but they have very important information in them about having gratitude and being yourself.

Yes, i'm definitely noticing how I look at things differently now. I feel it hells me a lot I keep noticing me stopping myself before I do something I shouldn't and I think about what I should be grateful for. The videos are interesting to me because you get to see different peoples perspectives of things and the videos help too becaus they make me realize that almost everything you can see you should be grateful for.

I am looking at small things in a more positive way and not putting myself down for it. I think that it is making a difference I am looking more positively at everything. The videos are very interesting and them talking about the results of gratitude is really cool. The videos are helpful because they let everyone see the huge benefits of gratitude.

No am not noticing anything. I think so because it makes you happier and I think being happy is good! I really like the videos and they are sometimes realy funny like the one we watched to day. Sometimes the videos are helpful because they make yu think of things you would of never had thought about.

I feel like handling minor difficulties has changed to me. I don't really freak out that much as before I started writing in a gratitude journal. I noticed that I don't complain about things as much as I used t. Yes, the videos are interesting but sometimes they are a little too lengthy and I sometimes doze off and lose focus. Bye!

I don't feel like I am changing, I feel normal and the same as before. The videos are interesting but I don't exactly get how these people changed by just being greatful and writing things that they are greatful for. I solve my encounters like before and I don't really feel like anything has really changed.

I'm surprisingly seeing a difference. In math class I used to think I give Up,but now I'm thinking what am I missing. What doesn't make sense. I think our focus on Gratitude is making a difference. Not very many of the videos are interesting, but the one today I thought was very funny. I think the videos are helpful.

I think gratitude makes me a happier person. It makes a slight difference but I do see things with more thankfulness in everyday life. The videos definitely help place the journal with what you can be grateful for.

I have not noticed any differences other than me feeling happier. I think the videos are quite interesting sometimes they are pretty funny. The videos are very helpful because sometimes they give me an idea to write down in my journal.

Sadly I am not. It is, I start to notice the little things I am grateful for even lights. They are very interesting especially the one we watched today. The videos are helpful as they expand on what more I should be grateful for. Bye!

Gratitude definitely helps the way I deal with small problems, like when I asked my dad if he would take me somewhere and he said no instead of getting upset about I just found something else to do. I notice that I am gradually becoming more and more grateful. The videos are all very different and some are more interesting than others but they do show me more things I can be thankful for.

I think that gratitude is helping me see that I need to be grateful for what I do have and not what I don't have. It's helping me quite a bit. Some of them are interesting. Yes they help me understand what gratitude is.

I am actually noticing how I deal with small problems, I'm doing quite a lot better with dealing with them. I used to make a big deal over little things in life but now I am handling them a bit more reasonably. Our focus on gratitude is making a difference in my life for sure, I am becoming more grateful for the little things in life now. The videos are very interesting to me in my opinion. They teach a cool moral and message about gratitude. The videos definitely help me with learning about gratitude.

I am not really noticing any differences in how I deal with anything I deal with them the exact same as I did before. It is making no differences and I almost think that I would be happier not doing it because it is sort of stressing trying to find 5 things every day. Some of the videos are interesting and some are helpful but every once in a while you come across one that is not so helpful.

Yes, I kinda see a difference but I still feel the same. Yes, I like the videos but some times when there to long I tend to lose focus. I guess the videos are helpful because it makes me look at things differently.
