In finance: growth of the value of an asset

In personal life: gratitude

There’s a correlation. What you appreciate is more likely to appreciate. The relationships you nurture. The home you renovate. The investment portfolio you are intentional about managing.

This is related to the idea of Stewardship. Take great care of what you have. Strive for more but appreciate what you have instead of focusing on what you don’t. Build what you have into more instead of wishing for more from nothing.
