Summary

This quote emphasizes the power of appreciation in our relationships with others.

By recognizing greatness in others, we create a connection or ownership of their qualities, allowing us to grow and be inspired. Appreciation breeds positivity, connection, and encourages a mindset of gratitude and recognition of the good in others.
