1. Take 7 minutes each morning to write down everything you appreciate
- Starting your day this way primes you to be receptive and grateful for everything your day will bring.
- It also helps you cultivate an air of positivity that makes you naturally more attractive to other positive people – and inspires them to want to help you achieve your goals.

2. Make a conscious effort to appreciate at least 3 people everyday
- By letting people know how much you appreciate them, you increase their own sense of appreciation and self-worth and encourage them to pay this positive energy forward to other people.
- While most people enjoy receiving verbal appreciation, written notes are also nice because they can be saved and re-read.

3. Play the appreciation game
- Set a specific time each day to consciously appreciate everything you encounter.
- An ideal time to do this is on your way to or from work.
- Appreciate the people you pass, the road you walk on, the cars that let you merge into a different lane, the street signs that make it easy for you to know where you’re going, the rain that’s nourishing the plants and trees, and so on.
- Look for the good in all situations – even those you would normally view as negative.
- As the saying goes, “Every cloud has a silver lining.”

4. Carry a physical token of gratitude in your pocket
- A physical reminder can bring you back to your daily habit practice of gratitude when your mind has drifted elsewhere.
- As you reach into your pocket throughout the day and feel the token, use it as a reminder to stop, breathe and take a moment to fully experience the emotion of gratitude.
- The more conscious effort you put into seeking it out, the easier it will be to find it – and the more powerful your experience will be.

5. Remember to appreciate the smallest blessings
- The best way to activate your gratitude is by acknowledging the gifts in your life.
- If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes in your closet and a roof over your head, you are better off than 75 percent of the world’s population.
- If you eat three meals a day, you are far better off than the 1 billion people on the planet who eat once a day at most.
- Do you have a phone? Do you have a computer and Internet access to stay in touch with the world? Do you have clean water to drink?
- Celebrate these blessings. These daily conveniences are gifts that some people in the world do not enjoy.

6. Appreciate yourself
- Finally, don’t forget to appreciate your OWN qualities and accomplishments.
- In addition to celebrating your big successes, acknowledge your small daily successes too.
- We all need acknowledgment, but the most important acknowledgment is that which we give ourselves.
- Even the smallest act of gratitude will have a positive impact on your life.
