Take The Time

You’re busy. You finish one project and you move right onto the next one. You go from here to there. Meeting to meeting. Kids activity to the next kids activity.

Busy is the nature of life. It’s almost like we feel like we are failing if we aren’t constantly doing something but busyness can cause us to miss opportunities of greater importance.

As you move from one thing to the next don’t forget to be aware of the opportunity that may be right in front of you.

A person who may just need a little bit of your time. Just a moment but maybe that moment you take with them will make all of the difference in their day.

Don’t miss the opportunity to have an impact. What you do is important but the people that you do it with and for matters more.

Take The Time!

I’m cheering for you.

Stay True!

We live in a world where comparing ourselves to others is available to do at all times. Don’t fall for it and determine who you are based on what you see others doing and focusing more on that than what is right in front of you.

You were created to do what no one else can do. Your talents and gifts along with where you work and live have all aligned for an opportunity no one else has.

Stay true to who you are and where you have the opportunity to do it. You will be better and blessed as will those around you.

I’m cheering for you.

What You Leave Behind

We all love a good quote.  A quote can make us think more deeply, stir our soul and even bring about change in our lives.

While they can have some lasting impact we should not be about trying to come up with the next catchy quote or phrase to impact people.

The impact that we ultimately have on people is found and grounded in how our lives intersect and impact those we lead and live with, our daily contacts and even those we may just have a brief encounter with.

If you truly want to leave your legacy be mindful of each daily interaction. 

Be kind.
Be compassionate.
Be full of grace.
Be loving.
Be positive.

If you are going to leave anything behind weave these into people’s lives.

I’m cheering for you.

Success 101

The most recent statistics show that the number of self help books published in 2019 was 85,253.  That number is close to more than three times the number that was published in 2014.

Alot has been written and there are many different well thought out ideas and plans that can help you be successful.

While many of the books are useful and thought provoking I believe we tend to overthink what it really takes to be successful at times.

In it’s simplest form I believe to be successful you can follow this simple three step formula and success will eventually find you.

1.  Show up.  Just show up and be early.  Be where you need to be, are supposed to be and when you are supposed to be there.

2. Work hard.  Every day.  Do what you are supposed to do and do it with excellence. How you do your work matters.

3.  Repeat the above two steps over and over again.  When you feel like you’re getting stuck make sure to go back to #1 and #2.

That’s not a book’s worth of knowledge but I believe it can get you closer to being where you want to be if you do it consistently.

I’m cheering for you.
