I think one of the biggest mistakes we make many times in our lives because it's so easy to make this mistake is to take things for granted.
It's easy because when you have something or someone or something working for you, after a while, it becomes natural. After a while you stop seeing. You stop noticing and appreciating that thing as you did the first time around, when it was a surprise, it was interesting....
Consciously realising this as a potential problem, and working around it with deliberate appreciation exercises really helps.
When you get used to something working for you, someone helping you out on a regular basis, it can be a potential pitfall to regard it as something given and natural and take it for granted.
What do you take for granted in your life right now?
My heart beat... I take that for granted... like everyone else...
