In this blog I provide my research from "the three good things" project. Each day I tracked three different things that positively impacted me. It was important that I didn't miss a day of tracking this work to help keep the project accurate. To help me with this blog I first read a few articles like What is Positive Pyschology & Why Is it Important? (Positive Psychology Program), Greater Good in Action: Science-Based Practices for a Meaningful Life (UC Berkeley's Project Home Page), and Three Good Things (Greater Good in Action)

My mom made me breakfast before work: She usually is out of the house early but she had an extra hour to spare and made me breakfast to wake up to. I went to the gym: My friend went with me so she could motivate me to workout.

Hey Nicole, my name is Joanna from Mr. Sabatino's other English class. I felt like I could relate a lot ot many of your three things from each day. I love when my mom makes me my favorite meal, it brings me so much happiness! Also I don't have all that much time but I try to make dessert when I can, especially for my siblings. Along with the voting thing, I was pretty confused and even a bit anxious when I got to the booths, but after my decisions I felt a sense of relief. Also congrats on finding your major! Thanks for sharing.
