Ever had one of those moments when the story of your whole life suddenly flashes by in front of your eyes? Then shortly after the moment has passed you actually thought the story of your life was boring and full of stuff that really didn’t mean much for leaving a positive legacy for the generations to follow? Well, such a moment happened to me a few years ago and it really shook me up and got my attention.
The good news is moments after that big moment I realized that I had the power to change my story. I realized that I had the power to put a period at the end of that paragraph of my life and start a totally new chapter. A chapter that would be more selfless than selfish. A chapter that would contain more lift-service than lip-service. A chapter that would be more focused on building up He and She rather than Me and I’m happy to report that “yes” a lot of changes and progress has definitely been made for the better since that infamous day.
More good news! You don’t have to wait for a near-death-experience or moment of awakening to start changing the content of your story. You can start today, Right Now, making the necessary adjustments to squeeze the juice out of this life and not just strive to stay alive, but THRIVE! You can take captive this very moment and use it as the defining moment where you re-commit yourself to reach your full potential in this life and then make a point to leave the best parts of yourself in others. There’s no better time to start working on altering the future than in the present. After all, we only get one time through this ‘life’ thing so let’s make it GREAT!
