Week 18 – Reading obituairies

It’s sort of a sad experience.  Reading the death notices of strangers.  First is the staggering difference in ages.  My oldest was 98 and my youngest was 24.  So much life and so little.  Could the 24 year old actually have “lived” more than the 98 year old?  Reading one a day sure puts my life in perspective.  Maybe my problems aren’t so bad after all.  Most of all it stirred up gratitude.  One of my gratitude cards now says ” I’m grateful I’m alive”.  I’m grateful I’m still here to share the dance with those I love.  To take it a step further, I watched a funeral this week.  I took my son to see the movie “American Sniper”.  When I came home I googled “Chris Kyle” to learn more and ended up watching the whole hour video of his funeral.  He lived a full life.  He had highs and lows, but always stayed true to his DMP.  He made a difference in the lives of many people.  I want my life to count.  I want to make a difference too.  This course is making that possible.  We were each born an original, don’t die a copy.  No more quiet desperation.

Another great aspect towards that goal is the masterminding which continues to blow my mind.  It has been such a blessing in my life.  for those who still haven’t found a like minded partner I urge you to keep looking.  The mastermind along with the Go90Grow skills is changing my business and my life.  I can’t recommend them enough.
