Why We Struggle With Self-Credit and Gratitude
Are acknowledgments and gratitudes difficult for you? In this heartfelt episode, Rhonda Britten unpacks why giving yourself credit (and seeing your blessings) is the key to fearless living. Discover how tiny acknowledgments and everyday gratitudes can shift your self-blame, change your perspective, and open the door to joyful, authentic growth.
Welcome to Love Notes from Rhonda, where today we explore the heart of change: the practice of acknowledgment and gratitude. So many of us struggle to credit ourselves, or to feel grateful for what we have. Maybe you find yourself blaming the world for what’s missing, or carrying more responsibility than is truly yours.
In this episode, I break down why both acknowledgment and gratitude matter and why they’re often more challenging than they appear. I share how even a home remodeling can become 10, 20, or 50 little moments of courage worth celebrating, and why the everyday smiles of strangers can be powerful sources of gratitude.
Together, we’ll uncover the truth that transformation doesn’t live in giant milestones alone, but in the small, daily wins and the choices that stretch us beyond our comfort zone. If your brain tells you you’re not doing enough, I’ll help you shift that, step into more freedom, and start seeing all the beauty and growth you’ve truly created.
What You’ll Discover
- Why having trouble with acknowledgment often means you blame yourself
- Why struggling with gratitude can reveal how you view the world
- How to break down big wins into dozens of micro-acknowledgments for real momentum
- How small acts, like choosing a tile or receiving a smile, matter, sometimes more than major achievements
- Why your brain wants acknowledgments and gratitudes to be BIG—and how to reclaim the power of small, daily practices
- A playful way to rethink self-credit, even if you feel like you haven't done "enough"
Key Takeaway
Life-changing shifts don’t come from the grand gestures—they’re born from owning your small moments, celebrating your tiny decisions, and finding gratitude in the ordinary, every day.
Key Quote
“It’s the small things, it’s the daily things. It’s the moments that you own—that you take back, that you say, 'Yes, this is my moment, this is my time, this is my decision.'”
