Personal Diary : How To Appreciate What You Have & Stop Comparing Yourself To Others
So many of us are more stressed and spend less time doing enjoyable activities. We decrease happiness just because wanting more : more money, more shining jewerly, more things. If you want to start learning to appreciate what you have and stop wanting more, appreciate your life a little more with appreciate what you have by giving more.
It's so easy to appreciate the big stuff : new car, new jewerly, new job etc. But it takes a little effort to notice all the tiny things : a warm cup of coffee, the sound of the rain, the smell of chocolate cookies you baking in your house, the shiny sunshine or even a new white t-shirt from H&M.
If you want to sleep well, go to bed filled with gratitude, put your mind in positive mood. I know sometimes we let a simple thing like a friend's annoying comment bother us. We can't let other people's reactions control our own. So when things don't go right, stop looking outside for blame. Because “The problem that we have with a victim mentality is that we forget to see the blessings of the day. Because of this, our spirit is poisoned instead of nourished.” ― Steve Maraboli, Unapologetically You: Reflections on Life and the Human Experience
If you want to know how big your God loves you, just watch the sunrise. Be thankful for your life, there's a sunrise and sunset every single day, because a little appreciation can make a day :)
