Comment on The Quote of the Day

"To be capable of steady friendship or lasting love, are the twogreatest proofs, not only of goodness of heart, but of strength ofmind."
~William Hazlitt

Here is what comes to my mind when I read this quote:

To care for someone else, from friendship to true love, is a real gift that we should use more often. Lucky are the people that have this gift because it shows not only their goodness of heart but also their strength of mind and isn't this a winning combination, especially in these festive time? How about proving it to someone today with a unexpected phone call, a special gift, a nice pad on the back or just a smile?


Have a great day!

Who knows what is Good or Bad?

Hi,

Have you ever considered what is good or bad?

Usually we think that this is a "black or white" issue.

Good is when things go well or as we expect and Bad is the opposite.

Well, I'm not so sure.I think it comes in shades of gray.

Here's what just happened. You can decide for yourself.

Today my wife took my two year old son Max to the doctor for acheck up. She just called me and told me that Max has to be testedfor a problem!

He needs an eating test. (I didn't know what it was either)

My first response was anger! Who says he needs a test? He's fine!

My second response was concern. At this point I am thinking that this is one of those "Bad" things. After asking a few good questionsthis is what I found out.

Well, as it turns out he does chew his food in a manner that isincorrect and can cause stress on his jaw. It is something I havenoticed but didn't realize was an issue.

The treatment consists of working with a speech pathologist to helphim learn to chew correctly.

My third response is resolve and relief.

After thinking about it I understand that this is really a "Good"thing.

What?
Is Josh crazy?

No, it is "Good" because ignorance is not bliss, ignorance isfuture pain!

Knowing there is a problem and getting the services Max needs willallow us to lessen it's impact. We are forewarned and thereforeforearmed.

While it is not what I wanted to deal with, thank goodness it isn'ta major issue like some people have with their kid's health. Inthat I am blessed.

So, who knows what is good or bad?

What do you think?

Goals

Hello Friend,
I want to share this post because i have been getting so many questions regarding these two topics:

Goals and Goal Setting.

So important.

Frankly, if you don't know what you want or why you want it you will get whatever comes your way.

That might be good, it might not.

The only question I have for you is what do you most desire?

Do you know?

Is it written down?

Let's face it, if YOU don't even know what it is that you really want, how do you expect to get it?

The truth is that while I am a bit of an expert on goal setting it is really GOAL ACHIEVEMENT that I want to help you with.

Goals are the road map for achievement but without the vehicle to get there they don't do much good.

So, you are probably wondering-

What is the Vehicle?

That's a great question.

The vehicle is more than just one thing. It is a mixture of personal values, visualization, action steps, a system, support systems, accountability and desire.

If life is an art, achievement is a science.

Please let me know what you are passionate about and would like to achieve is the next year or two.
