Take a chair and sit in the center of a room. At best, you’ll see half the room. One-half of the room will remain out of sight. This imagery is applicable to the way we look at the world. We have a partial picture. We need to listen to others to complete our picture. It’s hard work, but in the end it is worth it.

I know someone who had a choice between two jobs. One job offered less money, less pressure, and a higher quality of life. The other job offered substantially more money and the promise of performance bonuses. It is a high pressure job and the quality of life is significantly less than the first job. Which job did he take? Which job would you take?

If money makes one happy, how much money will it require? When the financial goal is reached, will happiness move away teasing you to chase it? A kind and loving soul will find happiness much more quickly.

Some folks never reach their potential because they fear taking a chance. They play it safe holding on to what they have and know. All the while, the world was waiting for them to open the door, take a chance, and roll the dice. Have you reached as far as you can reach? Or, is there a drive within to reach a bit further? Go for it.

If you’re chasing a dream, make sure it’s the right dream. If everyone else is chasing a similar dream, ask yourself why? it may be time to reconsider and choose a new dream.Â

Our thoughts constantly bombard us. When one thought leaves, another thought takes its place. It is seemingly a non-stop process. If you’re like me, you’re probably hoping your thoughts take a long weekend once in a while (LOL). I can’t stop my thoughts. I can call in a substitute thought to take the unpleasant thought’s place. e.g., if a thought zings me and causes my anxiety to rise, I can insert a substitute thought (a walk through a mountain meadow). Our minds can hold only one thought at a time.Â
