&#8220;If you wish the world to become loving and compassionate,
become loving and compassionate yourself.
If you wish to diminish fear in the world,
diminish your own.
These are the gifts you can give.&#8221;

Gary Zukav
I recently had an interesting conversation with a mother that was very upset
over &#8220;the state of the world,&#8221; and what that meant in the future [...]]]></description>

&#8220;Concentrate all your thoughts on the task at hand.
The sun&#8217;s rays do not burn until brought in to focus.&#8221;
Alexander Graham Bell
How many of us live our lives feeling:

Scattered?
Rushed?
Stretched?
Distracted?
Overextended?
Unfocused?

We are constantly &#8220;doing,&#8221; yet seem to get nothing done!
This state of distraction has become the new version of what it means to be successful.
You must be important [...]]]></description>

&#8220;Waiting always seems longer
when you are relying on someone
to do something
you can do for yourself.&#8221;
Enzo D&#8217;Alimonte
A lot of us are waiting.
We are waiting for people at home to notice how much we do, and how much we give.
We are waiting for people at work to notice that we can do more, we should be paid [...]]]></description>

&#8220;As long as one keeps searching, the answers come.&#8221;
 Joan Baez
Sometimes we can be impatient.
We want what we want&#8230;now.
We don&#8217;t want to work at it.
We don&#8217;t want to wait for it.
We want to know the answers.
We want to have the results.
We want every dream to come true&#8230;
every day.

&#8220;Playing it safe is the riskiest choice we can ever make.&#8221;
Sarah Ban Breathnach


If you never push yourself,
you&#8217;re never know what you&#8217;re capable of doing.
You&#8217;ve played it safe, for a long time,
in so many areas of your life.
Playing it safe means you aren&#8217;t really playing at all..
you&#8217;re watching.


Sometimes it can work to stay nestled in that [...]]]></description>

&#8220;I always tell the kids,
&#8216;you know what&#8217;s great about going the extra mile?
There&#8217;s very little traffic.&#8217; &#8221;

Jim Larrangaga
It is often acceptable to be good enough.
A lot of people do just what they need to do to get by&#8230;
and, they do get by.
They aren&#8217;t blazing new paths or leaving lasting impressions.
They are not making waves or [...]]]></description>

&#8220;Most people are so busy knocking themselves out

they never get around to do what they want to do.&#8221;

Initially it didn&#8217;t make sense, and it was hard to follow.

Problems can&#8217;t stop you.

Only YOU can stop you.&#8221;
Jeffrey Gitomer
This life is yours.
Yours to own, and direct and live.
There aren&#8217;t always clear paths
and sometimes there aren&#8217;t directions,
but it&#8217;s still all yours.
You can shape it
re-shape it
and alter it
as often as you want.
Sometimes people don&#8217;t know what they [...]]]></description>

This was written after sitting with a mother,
as she tried to explain how she feels living through another day
of her daughter&#8217;s addiction, and was first shared in December 2007.
I am posting it again, because there have been several people
that have recently shared stories of addiction that they are facing in their families.

&#8220;Think you can&#8217;t change the world?
Too late, you already have.
It was changed for the better the minute you were born.
There are more people than you can imagine
who will never be the same because they came in contact with you&#8230;
