Stolen Joy



Hello Readers,

We heard some great news this week for our business that us excited. However, something else (which had nothing to do) with our business, distracted us and steered our attention away from the great news we heard earlier. In essence our joy was stolen and it was our fault. We have to be on guard when something great happens and then something unrelated happens next. We have to make a decision on which are we going to focus on. Things in life will not always go the way we want them to. Instead we need to focus on what can we do instead of what we planned to do that did not happen. We realized we are causing our own irritation and it was not worth it. So, we decided to focus on the good and do what we could about the unrelated news and ironically everything worked out as it always does. As Bob Marley said “don’t worry about a thing because every LITTLE thing will be alright”. It is the little things that steal our joy. Don’t let that happen. Focus on what can be done and not what can't be done.

Keep It Moving.

Your thoughts are welcome…

The kid in us all



Hello Readers,
 
I love to take walks in my neighborhood and watch the kids play and ride their bikes. On my walk the other day, I watched a man play with his remote control car. I thought to myself this is the cutest thing. It made me think about staying young. I believe all adults are big kids. Some of us have to dig deep to find the kid in us but, believe me the kid is there. Here are some ways to get that kid out of you:
 
1. Color. Yes, get a coloring book and crayons.

2. Do a puzzle.
3. Buy a remote control car
4. Fly a kite
5. Play some video games
6. Go to an amusement park with no kids. (No this is not selfish)
7. Take a Disney Cruise with no kids.
8. Play on a neighborhood sports league.
9. Go to an arcade.
10. Collect stuffed animals (ask how I know about this one)
 
I hope you do one or all of these and live life like a kid, It may just save your life.
