Many of life’s successes come from a cumulative effort. It’s the dedication and commitment to the daily effort that results in achieving the goal. It happens in the gym. Those who regularly exercise find, over time, that they are getting in better shape. It happens in getting to the right weight. It’s the small cumulative efforts that make all the difference. It’s in the small acts of love we give to our partner that builds a loving relationship. Commit to the small steps. Don’t stop stepping. You’ll surprise yourself and others.

Something to Think About
There are no guarantees in life. The wise ones know this and tell us to live in the moment. Living in the moment is a tough thing to do when the human spirit is designed to dream, hope, and look forward to better days. This is the gift of children. They dream, hope, and believe the best is ahead. I like to think there is a child inside all of us waiting to be liberated. Do you think it’s time to free your inner child?
Something to Think About
A person with an open mind may not always be right or make the right decisions, but he/she has a better chance of getting it right than someone with a closed mind. A closed mind is the product of fear of evidence or new ways of thinking. An open mind is the product of wonder, questioning and searching for truth.

Rise with a smile, turn the coffee on, take a long shower. Today’s going to be your day. Why not? You deserve a good day every now and then. Here’s hoping all your lights will be green, conversations are pleasant, and sometime during the day you’ll fall in love.

How many people will you meet today? How many of them will you greet with a smile and a good word? How many of them will you take a moment to find out how they are doing? How many of them will you offer to help if you see they’re struggling. You have a chance to change multiple lives through each of your interactions. Never believe you’re not important. To the people you meet today, you are important.

Somethings I find it hard to understand. I don’t understand why folks want to stay angry. I don’t understand why political parties can’t work together. I don’t understand why it’s so difficult to search for common ground. I don’t understand why the environment is not a pressing issue. I don’t understand why anyone would think killing solves problems. We’re all riding along through the cosmos on planet Earth. Maybe we should take a time out and throw a big party. We’ll find out we’re pretty much like each other. Let’s enjoy the ride together.
Something to Think About
If I don’t get started it won’t get done. If I look at it, it won’t disappear. If it’s important to do, do it. It’s the difference between doers and doubters. Doers get their hands dirty. They get up, get going, and keep going until they get it done. Doubters think about it, worry about it, and let discouragement rule. Be a doer, shake things up and get things done.
Something to Think About
Do your ideas conform to what society holds as acceptable? Or, do your ideas and thoughts challenge others to think differently about existing ways of doing and thinking? .If we keep doing things the same way we’ll get the same results, Go to the edge and challenge the status quo.
Something to Think About
There’s your way. There’s my way. If we’re stubborn, we’ll never see the myriad of other ways. Our paralyzed positions cause more harm as each side seeks power over the other. It happens all the time, it only works until the other side regains power and the harmful cycle continues. The courageous believe working together different sides can find a better way even if they can’t see it at the time.
