Do you celebrate meaningful milestones in your life? Or, do they come and go like the seasons – here and gone before you know it.
In two days, I’m celebrating one year of writing five daily blogs.
The learning curve has been amazing. Sometimes steep and challenging. Sometimes flat and easy.
At jeff noel.com, I wrote a Mid Life Celebration summary. Wanted to share it here, one last time, before it’s removed:
“Mid Life Celebration is where I challenge myself to: Rethink. Reprioritize. Recommit.
There are four key areas to my life, every life actually, and I share thoughts, tips and on a good day, a decent dose of motivation.
I’m challenging myself, because I’m crystal clear on the fact that none of us is going to live forever.
I am very thankful for the wake up calls in my life. I no longer ignore the clock. I embrace it and am inspired by it. What about you? What have you got to lose, seriously?”
As we go through life, we have obvious opportunities and some not so obvious. Have you ever considered this as part of your reality?
Many of the biggest opportunities happen at midlife. What we do when they arrive makes all the difference.
And the most overlooked, and inexpensive, opportunity to keep motivation alive is to celebrate milestones along the way. They come in three sizes: small, medium and large.
Yesterday I promised a few of mine, in an effort to practice the preaching. And by the way, all within the past 72 hours:
309 pages of raw content (not blog related)
Met with CPA
Ran 5 miles without any foot pain
Eight hours of sleep for 7 consecutive days
347 straight days of starting each day on my knees
Do you find time to celebrate your milestones, no matter their size? What if you did.
