Piecing Together Life’s Puzzles
Some days, Life feels like one of those 10,000+ piece puzzles. If we concentrate on the number of pieces we have to assemble, it’s daunting.
We’ve got to start somewhere, then step back and look at the big picture.
Putting everything together, One piece at a time eventually makes a pretty picture.
Release One, Reach One
You can’t get to where you want to be if you’re not willing to move from your present place; it’s still impossible to be two places at once.
Influence & Accountability
Sink, Surf or Swim
There are a few ways to enjoy the waters of life being fully immersed in the experience. We can sail and be carried through calm or storm from shore to shore. We can swim, being fully in the water, moving with and against the flow making progress while being one with the water. We can also surf, experiencing the adrenaline and thrill of riding the waves.
But sometimes, we just tread water, barely moving, getting nowhere; only surviving.
We lack confidence, and see others as somehow “bigger” than us…”better” than us we look to these bigger, better people and say, “What do YOU think of me?”, “What do YOU think I should do with my life?”
Or we do it silently by meandering through life with no direction and getting nothing done. Well meaning people who see our “potential” watch us treading, or worse, drowning in a sea of distraction and discouragement, then throw in life savers in the form of their suggestions to save us. None of that resonates, because it’s from their observations, influences, fears and dreams and not our own souls. So, we pass, and either keep treading water never getting to the other side or give up and sink to settle at the bottom.
I’ve decided to choose the freedom of charting my own course, swimming to the other side or riding the wave, spills and all.
Following the song in my heart is better than being pulled to the wrong shore.
