Stephen- You shine so bright that you make me want to shine that brightly & with my light I will unconsiously make another person want to shine and they will make another…and on and on.. Kinda like the Dr Pepper Im a Pepper too commercials..lol
You must have a great life. I know maybe you have had your tough times, but I am thinking this:
1- With seemingly vast knowledge on life’s curve balls, you sure seem like you have “the edge” as Tony Robbins would market it.
2- Why arent you as known as Deepak Chopra or Wayne Dyer? (if you are, I apologize, but I have not ever heard of you before last week)
3- I am in finance (when I am actually working) and I have so many visions (free to you of course) on how to market & bottle up your wisdom.
4-Figuring value of a daily dosage to start any given day would be worth $2/cup. Yup one of my ideas is to market you, 1 cup at time. YOU are more addicting than coffee.
I force myself to stop reading so I could let it sink in..
Thanks from One of your #1 Fans-

Great post, you gave a lot of great tips on being resilience. My favorite is “Focus on the good in yourself” This is an important message.
Thank you,

@kirwin, thank you so much for commenting. Bob Proctor says to laugh. It works great. You simply cannot feel bad when you laugh, especially out loud and hard. It’s weird but forcing a smile or laughing in a bad situation does wonders for my mood and perspective. Maybe you can teach your children to laugh at themselves.

Great post. As a mom of two young children, it’s becoming very evident to me that I need to find creative ways to teach resiliency to my children. To teach them that it’s okay to make mistakes and that’s it’s okay for them to not master something on the first attempt. This would be my “Do as I say, not as I do” sort of thing. (I’m working on the resiliency thing, myself.)

Thanks!
