Spreading the Appreciation Challenge

I've really been thinking lately about how important it is in our lives to find things to appreciate in the "everydayness" of our lives. Not just when something big happens for you - not just when you get a new car, a new job or win lotto! But finding joy andappreciation every single day amongst the "normality" of our lives and stopping to really feel it.

Finding things to appreciate makes you feel good - right now -in the present moment. And when you are feeling good in the moment - it opens you up be aware of even more positive moments to appreciate. It's like a snowball effect. The more you find to appreciate it - the more there is to appreciate.

I've also become aware that while I know this in theory (and have for quite some time) - when I'm going through a bit of a tough time - I forget to stop and take the time to appreciate. I sometimes think - when I get through this I'll stop and appreciate then. Or how will stopping and noticing this one small thing make a difference when I have so much going on. Well guess what - the only moment we have is now. So now is the only moment we can appreciate in.

SO - I have decided to set myself a challenge and put this theory to the test.

The Challenge

For the next 365 days (that's right a whole year!) I am going to share something each day which I have to be appreciative for that day. There are only two rules:

Post a message of apprecation every single day for 365 days
It must a different message every day

Some days it might be a one line message, it might be a full article, I might make a You Tube video message or an image. Whatever I feel is right for that day.

Then I'll post my "Spread the Appreciation Challenge" message at:
