Remember What You Stand For.

Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth. Mahatma Gandhi.

We’re living in crazy times.  It doesn’t seem like they are going to end anytime soon. Surrounded by uncertainty, lies, misinformation and outright fake news it is easier to think that the good years of the past 30 or so are gone forever or you can think of life as a wonderful, magical ride, albeit with with many bumps and unexpected sharp curves.

Still continuing to devote your best energies to what really matters and holds meaning for you.

Keep going. Keep believing in yourself.

Remember who you are and what you stand for.

A MOMENT OF REFLECTION: Have you found yourself wondering if, perhaps, there is more you could be doing? Something more meaningful and engaging? Or closer to the point, something that more reflects who YOU have grown into over the years? Need some help getting there? Perhaps I could be of assistance.

Searching For Answers..

At a time when the world is searching for answers, struggling to make sense of so many critical challenges, some timely words from John Lennon.

Hmm…

IMAGINE there’s no heaven,  It’s easy if you try

And no hell below us,  above us only sky

Imagine all the people living’ for today. Ah.

Imagine there’s no countries. It isn’t hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion, too

Imagine all the people living’ life in peace

You

You may say I’m a dreamer but I’m not the only one

I hope some day you’ll join us

and the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people, sharing all the world

You

You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one

I hope someday you’ll join us

And the world will live as as one.

A MOMENT OF REFLECTION: Have you recently found yourself wondering if, perhaps, there is more you could be doing? Something more meaningful and engaging? Or closer to the point, as you move on to what’s new and exciting, something that more reflects who YOU have grown into over the years? Need some help getting there?

Ask your way to success. It’s OK to ask for help. Perhaps I could be of assistance.

Over To You.

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go. T. S. Eliot.

In our super competitive, hyper-connected world today, finding your way successfully forward is truly a challenge.

Running with the crowd won’t cut it anymore.

Sometimes it’s better to reduce the time spent on our digital devices, studying other peoples methods and ideas looking for the right direction.

Better to dig deeper and look for your own story to tell.

Keep learning. Keep growing.

Over to you…

Do the right thing

Recently I came across something called The Rotary 4 Way Test – a personal and business ethical guideline penned some 60 years ago by Herbert Taylor, a member of Rotary International in Chicago:

do-the-right-thing

  1. Is it the truth?
  2. Is it fair to all concerned?
  3. Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
  4. Will it be beneficial to all concerned?

Doing the right things rather than doing things right takes courage. It certainly isn’t always easy and often comes with a cost, but that doesn’t mean we should turn a blind eye.

Hmmm..
