Short motivational monologue by Vishen Lakhiani arguing that what we ‘get addicted to’ shapes our lives: gratitude and appreciation attract beauty and ease, while addiction to problems, complexity, work, drama, or negativity attracts more of those difficulties. He recommends adopting a philosophy of solving things in a fun, easy way and becoming "addicted to gratitude."

People who are grateful about life and see the beauty in life end up attracting more beauty. People who whine about life and get addicted to problems attract more problems. People who are addicted to complexity attract more complexity. People who are attracted to simplicity and ease and human connection attract more freedom. So what are you addicted to? We don't just get addicted to cigarettes and alcohol. We get addicted to problems. We get addicted to work. We get addicted to bull, politics and drama. What are you addicted to? So when you embrace the philosophy that everything that comes my way I solve in a fun and easy way. When you embrace the philosophy to be that life is so easy that starts becoming real. And that's what you want to be addicted to. Be addicted to gratitude.
