Growth
It takes strength to grow as an individual.
There are different ways we grow. Not only is growth shown at the doctor's office every year you have a check up, but you can grow interpersonally as well. Growth can be shown by how much you've improved in certain situations or in areas you practice alot such as sports. Growth can also be noticed in school by your grades or how well you understand a concept. In order to grow, you have to have strength to overcome obstacles and when you work through challenges to learn a new concept or work through situations.

Gratitude
When you're able to see how you can be thankful, even in difficult times, that requires you to be strong.
Gratitude is one of many positive emotions. It's about focusing on what's good in our lives and being thankful for the things we have. Gratitude is pausing to notice and appreciate the things that we often take for granted, like having a place to live, food, clean water, friends, family, even computer access. It's taking a moment to reflect on how fortunate we are when something good happens — whether it's a small thing or a big thing. Practice gratitude every day.
These 3 steps can help you start feeling more grateful, and appreciative of the good things in your life:
Notice good things, look for them, appreciate them.
Savor, absorb and pay attention to these good things.
Express gratitude to yourself, write it down or thank someone.
