Take a moment and ask yourself, when it comes to appreciating the little things, when was the last time we truly When it comes to giving thanks we most often hear things like
appreciated the trees or nature in your area and what they do for us everyday or being able to walk down the street or be in our home and feel safe and at ease

most often referred to as that which is outside of us from our home food job career to
.
relationships What we really want to look at is aligning with appreciation from within

Looking at this deeper sense of appreciation from within ourselves there are several different
.
perspectives we can take We can start with recognizing just how much our bodies do for us in
,
every moment of every day from our heart pumping blood to our entire body to digesting the
.
food we eat and absorbing the nutrients it requires When we really look at and become
, ’
knowledgeable in how our bodies operate it s clear just how miraculously our bodies function

acquired and how far we have yet to go This type of approach takes us away from how far

we ve come taking us further away from appreciation It has become increasingly common to
“focus on how far you’ve come,” which is precisely what we want to be doing. Although that doesn’t mean stop having desires for more. While achieving your goals within the common focal points of your life such as your career, relationships, finances and fitness, we want to dig hear
a little deeper and evaluate our own individual journeys and put our focus upon our evolution

If you ever find you are being hard on yourself feeling hopeless or that you are not where you

we want to be because that is something we can truly be grateful for
