When you have something significant happen in your life, mark the occasion. This is why so many people have graduation ceremonies, birthday parties, anniversary events, awards ceremonies or simply raise a glass, give a card or reflect back for a moment – for two seconds or two minutes of silence.
When something is important in your life, give it a quick moment, or a full on event, to mark its significance in your mind.
Life moves quickly, so whenever you can, mark the occassion.
