Tip of the Day - #27

Lead like there's no tomorrow.

A coworker of mine got some pretty wicked news that she has a very aggressive form of cancer at 36 years of age. Another coworker recently lost a parent in a tragic accident. An old coworker recently lost her job when her company went belly-up.

It is a shame that it often takes events like these to snap us back to appreciating each day and living fully for the moment.

Books, articles, and classes tell us to live in and be fully present.

And yet so few of us live this way.

Think about who you are being right now. Are you holding back more than you should? Are you putting off going for what you want in life? Are you appreciating, and yes even loving, your life today?

I don't want to live in fear for what could happen, but I do want to get better at living well, healthy, fully and for today (with an eye to the future).
