Amazing talent Quote by Vishen Lakhiani
““I believe every day should begin and end with gratitude. I practice it every day in my morning meditation. Each morning, focusing on the reverse gap, I think of five things I’m grateful for in my personal life. Then I think of five things I’m grateful for in my work and career. A typical list might look like this: PERSONAL LIFE 1.My daughter, Eve, and her beautiful smiles 2.The happiness I felt last night relaxing with a glass of red wine and watching Sherlock on BBC 3.My wife and life partner 4.The time I spent with my son building his newest Lego Star Wars creation 5.The wonderful cup of gourmet coffee my publicist, Tania, left on my desk WORK LIFE 1.My leadership team and the amazing talent they bring to our company 2.A particularly great letter we received for my online course Consciousness Engineering 3.The incredibly fun Culture Day we had in the office yesterday 4.The fact that plans are coming together to hold our upcoming A-Fest at another amazing location 5.Having coworkers who are friends and who greet me with hugs when I come to the office This entire practice takes me no more than ninety seconds. But it’s perhaps one of the most important and powerful ninety seconds I can spend each day.””
