I never noticed how negative I was towards myself before I started this. Now I notice that when I start to feel down its because I've just been telling myself how I could have done better. It's amazing how hard on myself I can be and that it was so uncouncious! Just today I had a fine day and showed someone from Mexico around. I started to feel bad on the way home and had to stop and ask myself, "What did I do right today?" It's funny that I even started to feel bad because nothing went wrong! So, good job me for noticing and changing my thought patterns. I have noticed spontanous feelings of well being and gratitude since I started doing this. I just noticed that this is an older post. Let me know how it's going. I've been practicing self appreciation and gratitude for nearly two weeks now.</p>
