Ask One Question Every Morning

Lifehacker writes:

We often find ourselves trying to figure out ways to be successful; initiating ideas that could be stepping stones towards the goals we set out. Sadly, certain obstacles may set us back in our tracks, and what started off as a plan of action may turn into something we wish we could have done. Little did we know that success comes in different forms—it could happen overnight or it could take months, or even years. The fact remains that what we’re able to accomplish every single day contributes to the likeliness that success is just a few steps ahead.

Never Settle For Less

See on Scoop.it – Wholeheartedness

Know your worth. NEVER settle for less than you deserve.

Todd Lohenry‘s insight:

The word ‘deserve’ makes me feel uneasy because in my past, what I deserve has led to feelings of entitlement and expectation that lead to disappointment. Still, a healthy self-compassionate perspective is a necessity; only you can find the balance in your life…

The Timeless Teachings of “The Road Not Taken”

Road Less Traveled

The folks at FinerMinds say…

For all you poets, romantics and lovers of literature out there, today is World Poetry Day.

To pay homage to all the weavers and rhymers of words, we wanted to share one the top poems of all time (which also happens to be a personal favorite of ours), The Road Not Taken, by Robert Frost.

“Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Live & Learn

Spring officially begins tomorrow at 11:02 am. In his novel Great Expectations, Charles Dickens said:

“It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade.”

Charles, you are a wee bit off this morning.

I stepped out the door. The Earth is covered with a six inch blanket of wet snow. The Wind is gusting up to 20 mph. It is 28F. I shiver. And think…

Where’s my Sun with a spring kiss of warmth?
Where are my cherry blossoms?
Where are my bubbling brooks?
Where are my budding trees?

You are a college student. You go to see Billy Joel perform on campus. He was a childhood idol. You also happen to play the piano. You raise your hand during the Q&A section. He calls on you. You ask if you can play your favorite song with him. He agrees. The rest is history. As this student describes it: “The greatest moment of my life.” Sit back and enjoy…this is something special.

Thank you Lori @ Donna & Diablo for sharing this wonderful clip. (LOVED IT!)

A life of quality!

Wow. This video of a talking, mad sausage is funny, sad, outrageous, and a little bit insane. Think: Danny Boyle meets Babe. But it sure will make you think twice about eating meat today.
