What is the coolest thing we can do to be true to ourselves?

An uncommon question and unlikely we have a ready answer. But what if we did?

Why are so few of us are able to pull ourselves out of our deeply worn ruts. Ruts that began long ago as ‘finding our groove’.

Do only the luckiest of mid-lifers have role models who encourage them?

Do only the luckiest have role models who have blazed a trail as a decent example?

The rest of us, well, do we still have time to become a trail blazer?

Do we even think it’s worth it at this stage in life?

Fighting for survival severely strains thriving.

 

In our exhaustion from the daily grind, an opportunity presents itself everyday. Except it’s probably invisible to most of us. Maybe the decently self-aware person doesn’t miss it. Who knows for sure?

If no one is immune from life’s demands, how do some seem to make the obvious first choice?

Survive or thrive.

Pick.

All are eligible to thrive.

All of us?

It would certainly seem so.

We should never judge others on their perceived luck or privilege. This would certainly start looking like an excuse. Denial. We don’t need any more of that in our life.

But it sure beats trying to do the challenging work of learning how to thrive despite the hell we all go through.

Who helps us make the most of our day? (trick question)

See the sign in dead center? Who helps us make the most of our day?

 

Hoping our answer is always yes, no matter how often or infrequent we ask ourselves….

Are we living like it matters?

We are in charge of this answer.

The temptation is to tire of this type of thinking.

Imagine where that puts us for the rest of our lives.
