I had a conversation with a gentleman the other day who triggered the thought process for this blog. The guy I spoke with had such a zeal for life. I was inspired. I love meeting people for many reasons and when you find someone who is on the same wavelength and thinks the same way that you do, it uplifts.
When he was in an elevator one day he overheard two people saying the retirement age may be moved to 72 instead of staying at 65. They went on talking about how they could hardly wait until they hit retirement age. One had another 25 yrs before he would reach that age. You know what? You might as well just roll over and die! This would be most of the 97% of the population that I speak of on my home page. With this frame of mind, how can you have any type of joy or hope? Instead of started the day just hoping it will end soon, I look to each new day as opportunity. In my opinion, life is too short. I don’t have enough time to accomplish the things I would like to in a day. Sleep is something that is necessary to see the next day.
If you share this same type of mind frame with me, then I have an opportunity to share with you that will pay you big. The ones who arrive to work at 7:58 AM and watch the clock until 4:59 PM are not thinking outside the box. There is much to be grateful for and much to look forward to in life. Live it with passion and live it based on your own choices, not a time clock.
