I think the ability to recognize what you’ve accomplished is one of the most challenging things to do, but also so very important. We don’t do enough of it. I know I don’t. So this week when reflecting on my work, I decided to write a post about how important it is to be intentional about building self-appreciation (or at least striving for it), and how doing so can help you become more productive and happy. Here is a list of appreciate quotes for myself.

- Wow! I am so proud of myself! I never thought I would be able to run a marathon. But there I was at my second one crossing the finish line with other amazing people. The race was tough and when I hit the wall around mile 20, it looked like it wasn’t going to happen. But then something amazing happened. I found strength that I didn’t know I had because you were right there next to me cheering me on. And then somehow the finish line got closer. All the years of training and running races helped me get through this last mile and turn it into a victory lap. It took so much more than just working out to get here though – it took a healthy diet, too, and choosing to eat well and getting plenty of sleep and drinking lots of water as well as listening to my body when it needs rest.

- Even though I don’t feel appreciated enough, I have to give myself credit for putting up with the process of trying to build a great company. I’ve put out some really bad code, but it was documentation code and not that important. I have made up some crappy products, but they were only demoing ideas and gathering feedback. And most of all, I have taken on extra responsibilities that no one else has wanted…

I used to moan and complain about the small things in life, but now I have tried to see the wholeness of every moment. I think it has helped me be a lot more positive. In a few words this would be my appreciation list:
- Thank you for being the person I am. Thank you for all of the work you do to make me a better person each day. Without you, I’d be bloated, lazy and unhealthy; with you, I’m slim, happy and productive.
- Thank you for getting up every morning and going to work. I know it can be difficult to have the discipline to do this, but I think it helps me appreciate your efforts. I feel very happy to have financial security and a steady job.
- Thank you for creating awesome stories and poems, going on road trips and taking photographs. Thank you for creating a dream box and falling asleep to the sound of the ocean and in cities I have never been to.
- Thank you for standing up for yourself more and trying out new things. This has been a big issue for me as I have always been shy about going after things that I want, but I’m starting to get over it.
