Finding Joy in the Little Things… I woke up this morning around 6am, which is pretty late for me. Yes, I’ll admit that I was saving up my energy for my 3 year old grandson who was being dropped off for the day. Most of you know that I hit the gym around 6am so you’d think it would be far easier to just hang out at home and watch some cartoons and eat gogurts. Well…you’d be wrong. The amount of energy it takes to keep up with a 3 year old has reminded me just how flexible and laid back my daily routine really is…and that is saying a lot. However, I am always excited to take some time off to enjoy the simplicity and wonder of someone so young and disconnected from the problems of the world today. It wasn’t always this way for me though. I can remember raising my kids (who are now grown up and gone) and always feel the pressures of business, finances and life weighing me down. This made it very hard to concentrate and enjoy the time I spent with them. In hind sight, I definitely lost out on a lot of quality time and enjoyment. Now dont get me wrong. We have lots of memories of trips, events, and life, but as time has gone on I have learned to enjoy life much more along the way. So I wanted to just remind you to do the same…enjoy your life. Don’t be so caught up in achieving your goal that you don't take time out to live a quality life. If you work hard and create discipline in your life, you will certainly accomplish your goals and still be able to enjoy the process along the way. Here are few thoughts, ideas and suggestions I want you to remember:
