Uncertainty

scotland

Jessica contributed this wonderful piece from the Daily OM newsletter today.

“Challenge and experience are what life is truly about, and if we allow ourselves to live tentatively, we will be missing out on a wealth of encounters. So today allow yourself to live fully, teach yourself to appreciate the uncertainty as a time of unlimited possibilities, indulge yourself in the suspense of life and let the surprises of your own story unfurl before you.”

I love this!

uncertainty = unlimited possibilities!

Have an amazing Tuesday!

Don’t aim for success or happiness

“Don’t aim at success-the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue…as the unintended side effect of ones personal dedication to a course greater than oneself.”-Victor Frankl “Man’s Search For Meaning” and reprinted in the book below.

Refresh your goals, there is no “there”

“To know that you are a work in progress means to recognize that your goals are also works in progress. A friend of mine once said to me that there is no…”there.” It reminded me that every single day we are growing into who we will be tomorrow. Because we go through so many stages and phases, it is important to consistently reset our goals so that they can grow with us. When we reset our goals, we allow for each one to flow into the next and connect with all phases of life. Refresh your goals regularly and with intention, It will help you stay continually motivated and inspired.”-Heart Talk – Cleo Wade

 

There is never a true finish line. Why would we want to “finish?” Instead strive for multiple victories, with bigger purpose and love the race itself!

Serenity + Great Aims = AwesomeSauce

I LOVE this quote.

It is so easy to do one of the two things.

We can be serene… and lazy, and complacent.

We can have great visions/aims… and become demanding because we haven’t hit them yet. We can push too hard, we can give up.

It is when we can combine the two, when we can work toward big goals, but do so serenely, loving each step along the way, that is when the magic happens.

Go make some big dream/serene awesome sauce today!

Happy Thursday!

Dr. Joel Lindeman
