Mid LIfe Mission Statement

Here’s a free resource for developing your Mid Life Mission statement

In my 50 years on Earth, I’ve asked thousands of people what the meaning of life is.  Seriously, I have.  And still do.

Know what the most common response is?

Surprise?

Second most common response?

Guilt.

I’ll bet right now that 99% of you reading this don’t have an answer that rolls of the tip of your tongue.

And the one percent that does have an answer, or thinks they have an answer – their answer will be so unprepared that you and I would find it difficult to clearly understand.

That is why, if you want to leave a legacy for the important people you love, I highly recommend you consider creating some concise, and inspiring,  answer to life’s big question.

Mid Life Thursday?

Mid Life Thursday?  Seems like it surely must be so.

Here’s a good one:

“How far you go in life depends on you being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the strong.  Because someday in life, you will have been all of these”.  — George Washington Carver

It finally hit many years ago that this is absolutely true.  It’s very hard to imagine, even absurd, that I didn’t have a clue about this reality, for most of my life.

Just another reason why I love this Mid Life Celebration so much.

Only 25 days until I celebrate 50 years on our planet.  Carpe diem, jeff noel  🙂

Mid Life Tuesday?

Mid Life Tuesday?  Seems so.

Here’s a thought to get us going:

“The greatness of a nation and it’s moral progress can be judged by the way it’s animals are treated”.  — Ghandi

My goal in life is to become the kind of person my Dog thinks I am.  For real!

So, it’s an incredible wake up call everyday, when I’m filled with choices, to try and find the courage, strength and especially wisdom, to know what to do and when to do it.

I hope I can make my Dog even prouder than he already is.

Make it a GREAT midlife Tuesday, because if you don’t, who will?  If not today, when?  Carpe diem, jeff 🙂

PS.  Nice entry today at Lane 8.org

How long can I keep it up?

How long can any of us keep it up?

How long can I continue to write five blogs a day?

I don’t know? Do you? Wanna guess?

One thing I do know for sure, and this should not surprise anyone – I won’t know until I really try.

What type of person do you want to be? One that tries or one that doesn’t?

Whatever your choice, all the best to you and I wish you Mid-Life blessings beyond measure. Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂
