Product Name: Day One: Remembering why you came here in the first place
Description:
We are all excited when we start something new. As the newness fades, we often forget what we saw that brought us here in the first place. This is my story and how once I realized what was going on, I became much happier in my day to day life by remembering Day One. While remembering day one will not guarantee you will become unhappy with something, forgetting day one will almost guarantee your focus will change to the negative aspects and away from the positive aspects of it.
