APPRECIATION

Seriously, you need to do that!

Appreciating what you have now or the position you hold now is paramount, even if you are aspiring for something greater, which is what is common and normal with humans. The human heart is always never satisfied with what it has at hand, it always wants something new. It will passionately desire to achieve A, and when it obtains A, it will start craving for B, and C when B is at hand. The cycle continues without end. That is the normal human being.
I am not in any way suggesting that you should be satisfied with what you have or where you are at the moment. In fact, there is always a greater height, and greater achievement to make, and it will be abnormal to settle for the average/mediocrity, and the current achievement. My point is that no matter what your next aspiration is, always learn to appreciate the present, it has a way of working out the next stage, the next height, the next level, or the next aspiration. It seems to be a natural law of nature.

Observe the progression from 0 to 9 (0 leads to 1, 1 leads to 2, 2 leads to 3, 3 leads to 4, 4 leads to 5, 5 leads to 6, 6 leads to 7, 7 leads to 8, 8 leads to 9) and beyond. Notice that without 0 and 1 there wouldn’t be 10, without 2 and 3 there wouldn’t be 23, without 9, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 5, 3, 8, 5 there wouldn’t be 9,245,685,385 (nine billion, two hundred and forty-five million, six hundred and eighty-five thousand, three hundred and eighty-five). Similarly, appreciating what you have now sets the pace for what comes next. it is important to really appreciate what you have at the moment. It's all about recognizing and valuing what's already in your life, whether it's a person you may be overlooking, the position you currently hold, or the thing(s) you currently possess.

According to the writer and philosopher, Francois-Marie Arouet de Voltaire “Appreciation is a wonderful thing; it makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well. This stressed the importance of what we have around us or in us that we overlook.
