Appreciate
The first chapter on criticism talks about how we condemn and complain about everything we don’t like in our lives but never appreciate things that we like. That was exactly how I was. I always criticized people if they did anything wrong and never appreciated them for doing right. After reading this book, I have stopped criticizing all together. Now, if I see someone doing something wrong, I try to motivate them and tell them they can do it right next time. And I have even made a rule to at least appreciate one person daily.
