Why choosing is so critical to our midlife happiness…

It may not seem so, but what we resist changing, we choose.

And even if we choose not to decide, we still have made a choice.

We know this, but it doesn’t matter what we know, only matters what we do.

Hold onto this notion as if our life depended on it?

Strengthen a midlife weakness or let it go for a better alternative?

Exploit and strengthen what you are really good at already?

All the different ways of saying it come down to a simple concept

jeff noel blog excerpt
Procrastination is a habit

 

When a famous person says something, we notice. A relative unknown, we deeply discount. For example, this brilliant wisdom:

Carried away by our worries, we’re unable to live fully and happily in the present. Deep down, we believe we can’t really be happy just yet – that we still have more boxes to check off before we can really enjoy life – Thich Naht Hanh

All the different ways of saying it come down to a simple concept:

Live, before you die.

Life is not a dress rehearsal. Live like you mean it!

The contrast is striking, and we love it.

 

What one was afraid to say, the other felt it was the highest compliment.

One friend told the other, “Don’t take this the wrong way, but sometimes you think too much”.

The recipient friend replied, “Thank you. I see it as a gift that no one else we know brings”.

Aren’t we set free when we acknowledge and accept what makes us different special?

As we journey from midlife to old age, one of the biggest regrets we observe in those ahead of us is their regret for not taking better care of their physical health. We know this to be true.

Does Lane 8 not feel nearly as important as Mid Life Celebration? I ask this because there’s a decent drop off on Google Analytics from here to there.

Our body is a temple that holds in place all that keeps us alive – is it not staggering to think there are those among us who wouldn’t have time for upkeep?
