A state of appreciation is being who you really are.
... begin making lists of things that you feel good about and fill your notebooks full of them. Make lists of positive aspects. Make lists of things you love. Go to the restaurant and look for your favorite things and never complain about anything.
Look for the thing that you like the best even if there was only one thing in all of it that you like. Give it your undivided attention, and use it as your excuse to be who you are.
Use those things that shine bright and make you feel good as your excuse to give your attention, and as your excuse to be who you are.
You’ll tune to who you are and the whole world will begin to transform before your eyes.
It's not your job to transform it for others, but it is your job to transform it for you.
