It doesn’t fall from the sky

There’s no sorcery nor magic potions.

Blessings do not far from the sky.

You want a growth mindset, you must intentionally focus on it.

You want vibrant health, you must intentionally focus on it.

You must invest in things that yield blessings.

Same with spirit – peace and contentment.

You must invest in patience, gratitude, forgiveness, compassion, service, humility, and so on.

Small, daily deposits.

The magic of compound interest.

Peacefulness, by design or by default?

Establishing a spiritual and emotional routine is the same as not establishing a spiritual and emotional routine. The first routine is established by design, the second, by default.

Tough love is kind

text note to self
Reminder to consider this idea that popped up just before bicycling yesterday.
coffee mug and glass jar
The bead jar was emptied one bead a week for 18 years (936 weeks). One blue bead remains to allow bead size context. The coffee mug is a gift from Donna Flanagin. Donna has read the 5 daily, differently-themed blog posts since the beginning in 2009.

Tough love is kind.

If you don’t prepare yourself for your future, you are being unkind to yourself.

If you don’t prepare your child(ren) for their future you are being unkind to them.

Tough to think about, right?

That’s why it’s kind.

You alleviate preventable hardship down the road because you planned ahead and acted ahead.

You changed when you didn’t need to.

It’s called being proactive and loving.

Your deathbed is no place for this

Disney Keynote Speaker
Essentially, don’t wait until your deathbed to tell people what they mean to you.

 

Your deathbed is no place to say something important for the first time.
