2. The best way for positive things and people to enter
into your life is to appreciate what you already have.
When you do not appreciate what you already have,
most likely you won't appreciate what you will get in
the future.
3. Appreciation does not develop from what you want or
will get in life, but from what has already been given to
you.
It does not matter what you already have in life, there
is always a reason to appreciate someone or
something.
Think about it: if you can't handle what you already
have, then what make you think you can handle what
you will get in the future?
4. To help build your level of appreciation, learn to look
for the positive in things and people.
Whoever or whatever is already in your life, write down
what is positive about that person or thing.
And then write down how that positive trait or thing
has helped you in your life.
The more you are aware and understand that someone
or something else’s positive trait has helped you in
your life the more you will appreciate that person or
thing, and the higher your appreciation level will
become.
5. Remember, learning to look for the positive is also a
learning practice.
You might have a difficult time seeing the positive at
the beginning, but as you train yourself to do so, it will
become a natural thing for you to do, even in tough
situations.
