You're the boss

“My life didn’t please me.  So I created a new one.” – Coco Chanel

How about you?

Jealousy

It will slowly ruin you.

It’s like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.

Write a book

When I read a book I underline or highlight the best ideas.  One book I read recently, Awareness, by Anthony De Mello,  had a LOT of lines underlined.  I wrote these words in a journal, and it took up 28 pages in my own writing.

I literally wrote that book.  They were not my words, but by writing them, they became a part of me.  

What book do you need to “write”.

Hours are perishable

So are minutes and moments.  Months and years.  Once wasted, you can’t get them back.

Use them wisely.

All great teachers are great students

Helping others is really teaching.  If we are to be good at helping others, then we need to be great at learning ourselves.

Having a habit of learning each day and selecting the right combination of people to learn from will help us be a great teacher and able to help others.

Pursue your uniqueness

“Listening to yourself is about having your unmistakable voice.  You will never develop an authentic voice unless you are aware of what makes you unique and pursue it boldly.” – from “An Audience of One”

Your choice

We do not choose the day of our birth, nor the day of our death.

In between, however, is all choice.

Now, yet again. 

A different point of view

A different point of view is simply from a place that you are not.

There are a billion places to be – a billion points of view.

It should be no surprise that people have different points of view.

Don’t fight it, embrace it.

Are you going for what you want?

Most people are not going for what they want. 

They are going for what they think they can get.

Big difference for most.

How about you?

Own your screw-ups

We all make mistakes.  Just admit it, own it, make it better and don’t do it again!

Moving on…..
