Show more gratitude to the people who have mentored, supported, or helped you. Not just on special occasionsโevery single day. “I appreciate you” is my most frequently sent tweet and text. Why? Because it’s true. Gratitude makes the world a better place.
This was my –hopefully successful– attempt at abstracting the chaos of my life through which some others can also learn something.
