Day 2 - Positivity #DailyGratitude
Oct 2, 2025
A reflection on positivity and the power of mindset, reminding us that small shifts in thought can change the direction of our day and the quality of our life.
Every weekday morning, Zak goes live on his community, Take Action Daily, to chat with members about the daily word of gratitude and the key question. Enjoy reading today's summary from the live call below.
Positivity was the focus of today’s Take Action Daily call, and it led to one of the most energising conversations so far.
We began with a simple yet powerful question: What positive thought can you carry with you today?
The discussion quickly revealed that positivity isn’t about ignoring challenges or pretending everything is fine. It’s about choosing to focus on what we can influence and appreciating the moments of growth and gratitude available to us, even when life feels uncertain.
One community member shared that after completing an 8km run, he was reminded of how much we can change. It’s easy to feel powerless, but in truth, we hold far more control than we realise, especially over our mindset. Another reflected on gratitude, simply appreciating being outdoors, moving his body, and doing something he loves.
What stood out most was how positivity can shift the direction of our day. As one comment beautifully put it, “the happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.” When we nurture positive thoughts, even small ones, we change the lens through which we experience life.
So take a moment today to pause and ask yourself:
What positive thought can you carry with you?
It might be about change, gratitude, connection, or simply being present, but whatever it is, let it guide how you see the world today.
Have a great day.
