Yesterday we were running errands and while driving to the post office, I gave my son two envelopes and asked him to run them inside when I pulled up.
He asked me, “Why doesn’t Mommy put her stamps upside down?”
The first person that can answer why I do it will win a free prize.
The free prize is valuable.
Do you love your daily grind?
The unexpected challenges life throws your way?
It’s like, “Is the cup half empty or is it half full?”
Yes!
It is whatever you say it is.
If you had to go a summer day with only one, would you rather be without running water or air conditioning?
Day to day stuff. The miscellaneous, but critically important details we need to attend to day in and day out. If we don’t, we get behind, and eventually, we may get buried by our workload.
I know this well. Can’t recall the last time I had nothing to do. Every day, there’s a dull, but heavy pressure to do all the stuff that needs doing. It never ends. It never should end.
Today, in addition to the usual prayer requests, I’d like to add anyone dealing with a particularly heavy, and horrible situation today. There are many of you fitting this description. In particular today, however, I’m responding to an email that came through late last night.
Pray for Peace in her Soul, Joy in her Spirit, and Love in her Heart. And not only for her, but also for her entire Family. Transport to deeper message.
Do you consciously try to improve a little bit every day? Personally? Professionally?
Really not trying to annoy you, but I’ve spent 27 years of my life working for an organization that epitomizes excellence and continuous improvement, and epitomizes being the best – not one of the best, but THE best.
It was only a matter of time before the pace picked up.
That time has arrived.
Thanks to a ticking clock. Thanks to the iPad.
I wish I could tell you that I’ll wait for you, you know, until your ready to start living. But that’s now impossible.
There are 80 million blogs out there. There are 180,000 books written every year. A gazillion websites.
How does one capture the attention and interest of like-minded people? If you’re a business owner, a leader, a manager – how do you do it? The same way as everyone else?
