Quotes about Celebration
Experiment with giving away this energy--in little ways at first--directing it toward yourself and toward others with no thought of gain or return.

We'll remember the miracles on the far side of "long and boring.

Instead of exclusively focusing on what's wrong and trying to fix it, you identify what's right and try to replicate it. Appreciative inquiry is playing to people's strengths.
