From Mike Robbins:
One of the best things we can do for ourselves is to 
start our day off with a deep sense of gratitude. Focusing our attention on what we already have and what we are grateful for puts us in a more positive and receptive state of mind. Gratitude is one of the most powerful energies and emotions we possess. In addition, gratitude is a state of being and a very powerful force of attraction. When we are in a genuine state of gratitude, we are more likely to attract positive things into our life - success, fun, happiness, opportunities, and more.
At the end of the day, it is so easy to just "crash," due to the many activities, stresses, and challenges of our day. However, if we take just a few minutes to acknowledge the progress, successes, lessons, and highlights from the day, not only are we able to more fully appreciate ourselves and our lives, but we begin to train ourselves to focus on appreciation. We begin to look for more of what we are doing well, what we are proud of, and what we appreciate about ourselves, those around us, and life in general.
