Below is a list "about me" as to what I view as important in my life as well as the core values that I believe in and live by:
1. You can't succeed alone. Every story of success is a story of people working together both in life and in love, each contributing their own unique talents, skillsets and abilities. I believe in doing what you do best and letting others fill in the gaps. (Rob, I love you, and I love the gaps you fill in my life which make me more complete.)
2. Perseverance always wins. You can't fail if you don't quit. Find yet another way to make it work. Whatever *it* is for you - you must never, never, never give up!
3. Take time from your busy-ness every day - even if only 10 or 15 minutes - to center yourself daily. I call it meditation. It'll make you more effective and you'll accomplish much more.
4. If you don't like where you are today, don't expect tomorrow to be any different without change. Change your attitude, your priorities, your activities. Change from being rea-c-tive to being c-rea-tive.
5. You are a product of your thoughts. If you "change your thinking" then I believe you can change your life. It is true that "thoughts are things" and whatever you think about most of the time is what you will create in your life so don't *ever* give energy to negative thoughts.
6. You always receive back what you give of yourself. Consequently, if you want help, be helpful. If you want honest relationships, be truthful. If you want success, help others get what they want. If you want love, be loving. The corollary is that you always find what you're looking for in life.
Basically, I view life as a movie. You write the script. You are the star, director & critic. And like a movie, it will end. What's important in life is not just the journey, but the quality of the journey. That's why it's important to make every day be the best it can be, 'cuz now is all you have - to quote the musical RENT - NO DAY, BUT TODAY!!!
