Marcus Tullius Cicero

“Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues but the parent of all others.”

Live in the gain

Stop focusing on what's missing from your life. And rather than measuring yourself against your ideals, measure yourself against where you were before.

When you live in the gain, all you see is progress. What you focus on expands.

Transform your past

Your past is whatever you ascribe meaning to. You can remember the gains, or you can remember the pain.

Gratitude allows you to re-remember your past while being entirely focused on the gain. When you re-contextualize your past, you’ll never be the victim to your past again.

Kade Janes

“Focus on circumstances and you’ll be a consumer. Focus on capacity and you’ll be a creator.”

Present circumstances

If you focus on your circumstances, you’ll find plenty to complain about. But if you focus on your capability, then your only option is to get moving.

The problem isn’t actually your circumstances, but how you’re looking at them. Reframe them and consciously focus on the good in them.

Transform your future

Gratitude for your future allows you to know that you’ll succeed, long before you do.

While most people are defined by experiences from their past, successful people are defined by experiences in their future.

“Increasing rationality and improving as much as you can no matter your age or experience is a moral duty.”

They shape your actions. If you think of yourself as lazy or weak, you act in accordance with that label.

Instead of placing labels on yourself, try making statements indicating you’re in the process of improving. Change “I am” to “I’m working on it.”
