PERSONAL NOTE

This summer was bittersweet for me. My youngest child headed off to college a few weeks ago. I spent the summer helping her prepare and preparing myself for her departure. There were many emotions - excitement for her, feeling proud of her, feeling worried and wondering how she would navigate the steps into independence. 

One thing I could be confident about is that she knows what she wants. She has a plan and a vision for her future. Whenever life throws a curveball, she always has a way to get back on track because she knows her destination. 

She also realizes that it is important to enjoy the journey, to take time to reflect, to play, to be with friends and family. Even though the big goal is to get a degree in psychology, she also has important relationships and fun things she wants to do.

Life is a journey that is meant to be enjoyed. Sometimes, we have a clear vision for where we want to go and sometimes we don't. When we know our destination, we can take a detour - as life does sometimes throw us a curveball or an incredible opportunity - and then get back on the path.

There are days when I don't "feel" like doing what is mine to do in order to have the life I desire, to make a difference and to empower people to live their best life by following their hearts. Having a vision and knowing my purpose help me move forward.

COOL RESOURCE

One of my favorite books is The Success Principles by one of my mentors, Jack Canfield. You may have already heard me talk about this incredible resource. There are dozens of success habits and ideas to help you go from where you are to where you want to be. I reference this book often:

Master the first principle, take 100% responsibility for your life, and that will make a big difference in your life!
