Moonshot Thinking
The purpose of life, after all, is to love it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience. Eleanor Roosevelt.
The advent of a new year is a natural time to be thinking, what’s next?
These are challenging times. Whether you feel the need to step up your game, or are consciously considering setting out in a new direction, succeeding in today’s environment calls for courage, imagination and critical thinking.
Life is complicated. It tugs at us from many directions. All any of us can do is march as close to the beat of our own drum as we can. Life isn’t about finding yourself. It’s about creating yourself, getting crystal clear about what you want to do – and then doing it.
There is no magic bullet. It is up to you. Success, however you define and measure it, comes from within; from having the personal power that comes from a place of a well-defined purpose, doing the necessary work and sometimes, when it is necessary, some wild-eyed, moonshot thinking.
Vow today to make 2017 your best year ever.
Now that you’re here… as 2017 dawns, if this is resonating and you are looking for some fresh ideas to enrich your life and expand your horizon, I invite you to continue to read my blog.
