REFLECTION QUESTIONEnergy Adjust the ThermostatYour utility company is able to tell you your average energy usage. Ask them how your energy usage compares to others in your zipcode, and in your state. What other steps can you take each day to reduce your electricity usage?

REFLECTION QUESTIONHealth HappinessHow does/can practicing gratitude keep you centered and motivated to work for a better world?
Carrie Tobias 10/04/2018 7:10 AM"A person who feels appreciated will always do more than what's expected". It is important to appreciate yourself along with others around you in order to keep yourself motivated. A happy workplace is a productive workplace and that happiness starts within ourselves. Gratitude shown creates gratitude from others. Pass it on!
