Principal's Gratitude Journal

90 Days of Gratitude, Reflection & Purposeful Leadership

The Principal's Gratitude Journal is a 90-day guided practice that helps you notice it. Each day takes about five minutes. You read a short thought, name three things you're grateful for, answer one reflection question and close with an affirmation. It is built around the realities of a principal's day, so there are no long exercises and no guilt for a missed day.
