Just Do It!

Novelist Sinclair Lewis was supposed to deliver an hour-long lecture to a group of college students who planned to be writers. Lewis opened his talk with a question: "How many of you really intend to be writers?" All hands went up. "In that case," said Lewis, "my advice to you is to go home and write."

With that, he left.

Expression of gratitude...

For the rise and set of the sun each day, I am thankful.
For the home where the heart of my family resides, I am thankful.
For the enduring devotion of steadfast friendships, I am thankful.
For the pleasure of unrestricted laughter and silly moments, I am thankful.
For the numerous shoulders that share the weight of my sorrows, I am thankful.
For all I have and all I am able to give, I am thankful.
I am thankful...

Fascination not interest..

When children do things, they do it with all their heart..full concentration..total dedication..

That's because everything fascinates them. Unlike adults they are not interested in anything..they are fascinated by everything! Fascination is one step beyond interest. Interested people want to know if it works. Fascinated people want to learn how it works.

Develp a childlike fascination with life and people...

It's called a "Comfort Zone" because it's comfortable!

We are constantly growing and changing as human beings and in order to grow, we need challenges. Remember, in life, there is no standing still. You're either moving forward or backward. We're either growing or dying. It's like the story of the coral along the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. The coral on the ocean side, being challenged by the winds, waves and elements, thrives and grows while the coral living on the serene bay side, with nothing to challenge it, withers and quickly dies.

Until you make..

peace with who you are, you will never be content with what you have..

Past reflections..

Hunger = Anger
Leave everything you are doing and eat..
