Every single day brings the opportunity for the freshness of perspective

Obituary
Stunned by the news. Al was only 53, with a wife and three child under 15.

 

Freshness of perspective?

What would it feel like to have three overwhelming events happen on the same day?:

  • neighbor says her 22-year old daughter thought Mid Life Celebration (your book) was ‘fantastic’!
  • email sharing that 53-year old father of your child’s classmates just passed away
  • a colleague bestows generosity and kindness beyond amazing

All unexpected.

All powerful.

All emotional.

All reminding us of life’s beauty and life’s harsh reality.

Guest blogger Lorie Sheffer: Choose wisely

We all tend to do it; someone makes an insulting or negative comment about us and we replay it over and over in our mind.

Imagine if we were to pay less attention to the negative and instead replay the positive, kind comments.

Happiness is a choice; we have the choice to focus on the negative or focus on the positive.

Should we launch our lives in the direction of our wildest dreams?

jeff noel quote
Two out of three (quotes) ain’t bad (one is not original). Who cares, right?

 

There are amazingly inspiring people throughout history, but something is missing, even in a wonderfully captivating quote like this:

The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. –Amelia Earhart

What’s missing?

Action.

Quotes from famous people are like a shot of whiskey.

Something gutsy and raw in the consuming.

The wonderful afterglow is pretty amazing.

The letdown from not being able to maintain and sustain that wonderful feeling is why we keep consuming quotes, yet few of us ever launch our lives in the direction of our wildest dreams.

Things begin to change when we begin to change.

Common sense, but not common. (quotable?)

This applies to anything anyone does with passion, purpose, and conviction

Something as insignificant as seeing beauty in the simple everyday things at our feet.

 

Try to imagine writing every day for five years. What’s going to happen after you’ve written six years, seven years, or even eight-plus years?

Being remarkable doesn’t mean that you are remarkable, it just means that you’ve done something that people remark about – hence remarkable.

This applies to anything anyone does with passion, purpose, and conviction.

And with something as small as attitude.

For example, all each of us has to do to test this theory is be completely positive everyday for five, six, seven, or even eight-plus years.

Maybe we could all use to write a manifesto on why we aren’t anymore

Inspiring quote
Not sure who said it… but it’s brilliant.

 

Maybe we could all use to read a book entitled something like this:

How to live like a kid again

Maybe we could all use to write a manifesto on why we aren’t anymore.

Is something magical happening happening in your life?.

On the cusp of a breakthrough in living like you mean it?

What if.
