"It's a lovely idea but what happens if you end the year with an empty book? " Force yourself to think of things. I know it sounds really cheesy but at the end of the year it's nice to look back at things you will have forgotten. How you all laughed when your mate walked into a lamppost. When a work colleague said you'd done a great piece of work. When a stranger held a door open for you and gave you a smile. When someone gave you their all day parking ticket as they were leaving, so you didn't need to get one. | |||

"Lovely idea. Maybe use a digital alternative (I know some love the act of writing) and add photos? " Ooh yeah could get a notes app and store pics on my phone, great idea! | |||

"I did your good things jar a couple of years ago. It was a good exercise and reminded me that even when bad things are happening there are rainbows. One year I took a picture a day and reviewed that at the end of the year. I've just written my review of my year in my journal and found it to be mostly good. " You remembered the jar. I think it was Diamondsmiles that first mentioned it. I love the idea of a photo a day. My jar looks full this year, ready to open later. | |||

"Get a notebook and make a note when good things happen. Maybe someone got you a coffee when you were busy. A note about the amazing view when you were out on a walk. A smile and funny comment from a child. Having a great night out with friends. A nice compliment from a stranger. Then on NYE 2018 you can look back at your happy times. Does anyone do this? Will you try it? You have to get into the habit of making notes - keep the notebook somewhere you'll always see it. Maybe on your bedside table. " My kids and I are doing this with notes in a jar | |||

"I love this idea..... It's a long time till NYE 2018 I would probably lose the notebook and my writing is worse than my typing. A suggestion if I may OP.... Instead of waiting a full year have you considered turning it into a weekly thread on here so those who want to can share in the journey? " That's a great idea, you can run it if you like. It can act as a reminder for people to add to their notebook/ jars. | |||
