If you remain cognizant of what’s going right in your life, you win.
You’re more grateful.
More present.
More calm.
And you’re even more productive, as you strive for better.
Because abundance begets abundance.
So notice the birds chirping, the roof over your head, the functioning of your heart.
Note the creative accomplishments. See the meaningful personal connections.
Stay aware that you live in the first world (and not North Korea).
Be conscious that you haven’t been wrongly convicted of a crime.
Find perspective.
And then dive back into your striving.
It’ll all be for the good.
