But something that did stick, I got this tip from Lisa Leong, who is the host of This Working Life and a good mate of mine.

And she does a ritual with her family called Rosebud Thorn,

And what this is, is a nightly ritual.

She does it with her family.

I do it with my daughter every night.

And it's going through a rosebud and a thorn.

So a rose is something that is like the highlight of your day, something that you're really grateful for that happened during the day.

The bud is something that you're looking forward to because it's a bud, it's growing in the future.

And the thorn is something that is a stressor or a problem or something, you know, not great that happened that maybe you want to ask for help with.

And so I do that with my daughter every night and I find that it's something that's stuck in terms of thinking about what am I really grateful for and what was the highlight of my day.

Do you think it's been easy to stick with that because you're doing the habit with someone else?

Yeah.

does make it easier because it's ingrained in our evening rituals.

So we will, you know, typically do bath time and then we'll go to bed and we'll be chatting in bed and then I'll be like, okay, rosebud thorn time.

And then we do that and that's just – it's become quite ingrained in both of us.

And then we do silent reading time where we'll both just sit in bed and read and then it slides out.

Yeah.

I think having someone else to keep you accountable is also quite helpful with these things.

And I think that a lot of people are very motivated when there's some external point of accountability.

Yeah, I know that I find that quite helpful when I've said to someone, I'm going to do this by this date, I will always stick to it.
