MAKING A POINT

Artwork in Phoenix Airport ... might not be the same as making an impact.Making a point doesn't take very long and it can be gratifying in the moment.  Making an impact happens over time, and rarely brings the same sort of short-term glee.Source:  Seth Godin's BlogREFLECTION:Are you more interested in making a point or making an impact?While you can have both... what are you doing to ensure you have a long term impact?What will your legacy be?

THE OTHER BACKPACKS

A powerful metaphor from a long hike:  every hiker is intimately aware of their backpack.  They picked it out, choosing from dozens of options.  They know which straps are loose and which are digging into their skin.  They can tell you if it's lopsided, and what is in each pocket.  And yet....   Even after days on the trail, they probably couldn't tell you a thing about anyone else's backpack.  Except, perhaps, that everyone else has one.  That's the first step toward empathy:  realizing that everyone else has a backpack, and that it's different from yours.Source:  Seth Godin's BlogREFLECTION:Do you realize that everyone "has a backpack that it is different from yours?"Can you take a step toward greater empathy?

GO FOR A WALK!

"Above all, do not lose your desire to walk:  Everyday I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness;  I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it."Quote by Soren KierkegaardREFLECTION:Is walking a part of your daily practice?If not, how can you add this to your daily routine?Take a walk today!!
