Monday Morning Motivation

There's no place to get to. You're already there!

You've probably heard, "It's the journey, not the destination." Do you believe it? Then why all the fuss? A few reminders:

Slow down. Drive the speed limit. Start sooner. In fact, get there early and practice some of the tips below.

Breathe. Shallow breathing won't do. Expand your lungs to their fullest. Try it now. Feel the tingling? That's called being fully alive.

Chew more slowly. Learn more about the slow food movement. Discover what food really tastes like. You should, because after all, you're asking it to become part of you!

Notice. Don't just see, but observe. Don't just hear, but listen. Only when you slow down can you pick up the subtle nuances of shadows and sounds.

Become present. Living in the future is a dangerous choice. It accelerates aging and you miss the gift we call the present.
