Daily Gratitude

Daily Gratitude: We’ve seen this said in other ways over the past year of Daily Gratitudes but I love how this is worded. We are always trying to be something else. How often do we stop and ask why we are trying to do that? Is it something you love and want to do or is it something you’re “expected” to do. Expected by parents, siblings, spouse, relatives, peers, teachers, spiritual “leaders”, etc. if we don’t take some time and more than a few minutes to look deep inside we won’t know why we’re chasing what we’re after. If it’s not a personal desire, there may be “failures” in your history and even in your future. You can use that as a guide. Look at your “failures” and see how and why you were there in the first place. You can change your desires- your real desires. Go for what you want-what YOU really want

Daily Gratitude: Along the lines of our recent discussion of doing what you desire vice what others have convinced you to desire. Here’s another indication. Are you happy even when you “fail”? I was at the Ohio race. I was extremely happy even though I dropped out of the race very early. That told me that the things that I did accomplish which were not measurable in miles were things I wanted to do! I had the freedom to do the things I wanted. And since I liked meeting and being with all those people I was happy. Nothing can take that away from me. How does this apply to you?

Daily Gratitude

This is something to remember at all times but especially when to wonder why things are happening as they are. Also when you feel bored and don’t know what your next step should be. Just try something. Does it work? Great. If it doesn’t work or you’re not that excited about the results, try something else. Just keep up that experimental attitude and know that you can always try something else.
