The Truth Hurts

Fog

The truth hurts. The truth can also set us free.

“Yeah, yeah, whatever!”

Can’t you just hear people saying this, or thinking it?  I say it too.  We all do sometimes.

In fact, I’ve said this all my life.

“Yeah, yeah, whatever.”

Until a few years ago when things began to change.

One close friend describes me as, “A Transformed man.”

Just yesterday, at jeffnoel.org (spirit) I posted about the fog, the semi-conscious state many of us seem to go through life with. Some may call it auto-pilot.

As we are into the fourth day of the new year already, wanted to remind everyone that the goal from all this writing is:

  1. To leave a trail for a young child
  2. To help others with their goals
  3. To eventually raise money to find a cure

These things have the ability to help transform anyone. At the moment, it’s working slowly, but powerfully.

Finally.

Some will say, “Finally, 2009 is over.”

Some will say, “Finally, 2010 is here.”

Some may say both.

Where would you put yourself?

It seems, time and time again, it all comes down to attitude.

Indecision May Or May Not Be

“Indecision may or may not be my problem.”Jimmy Buffett

Ain’t it da truth?  This is one of the many reasons I’ve been challenged to do a better job at living out my dreams.

Please don’t get me wrong, most people have a pretty good batting average – we do many of the things we say we’re going to do.

We also, because we’re human, don’t do a lot of the things we say we’re going to do.

The antidote?

Find your higher purpose.

And, be prepared to work harder than you ever have in your life.

Vision Statements Are For Others

Do you have a personal vision statement?  A personal mission statement? A personal brand?

I can see the “deer in the headlights” look through the cyber-sphere. “Huh? What are you talking about? Are you nuts?”, I can hear some say.

No seriously.  Do you?

If you do, congratulations.

If you don’t, why the hell heck not?

Six days until the new year.  New Year!  New You?

When?  May I ask you that?  “When?”

When will you finally get the courage (guts) to face yourself in the mirror and start to become the change you wish to see in the world?

Then we can really get this party started and make the world a better place for younger generations.

You do think that’s a good idea, right?  The part about making the world a better place.
