Was chatting with one of my group-home boys the other day while cruising around town and as we drove by the local aquatic center we saw several people swimming in the pool. He then asked, “How deep is the water there?” Before I could answer the question this thought suddenly popped into my mind and I found myself making the following statement, “You can’t swim, huh?” “Noooo… No one’s ever taught me how to swim.” he said timidly.

As a result of this casual conversation, it got me to thinking about how this represents a similar parallel in life. Those of us who have developed the confidence to overcome our challenges and adversity in life no longer ask “how did this happen” or “why me”. We just say “Let’s Get it DONE!” “Let’s Push Past the Pain!” “Come-on Let’s GOOOO!” They realize that it doesn’t matter how deep it is, what we want is on the other side of fear and adversity so let’s jump in and swim-on over.

I want to take this opportunity to encourage those who have not yet learned how to swim to find you a mentor or life coach that can teach you some techniques to build your confidence level to get you from point “A” to where you want to “B” in life so you can “C” your way past “D, F & G” and Make it GREAT!

So what’s really the secret to life many may ask? Well, I submit to you today that the secret to life is really no secret at all. It’s quite simply “Your Purpose and Passion in Service to the Masses”.

I’ve found that many of us stumble through this “life” thing looking for the answers to our most pressing questions to be hidden in some complicated, deeply profound thought articulated by some great budda or diety or divinely ordained profit. But, the real truth is our answers can be oftentimes found in the simplest of words like the flutter wings of a small bird, or from the flow of your own pen capturing your own subtle words from deep within. Then again, maybe that’s why most people miss it. Hmmm…

Don’t miss this breadcrumb of wisdom today my friends. Continue to lean forward in your attempt to Make this “good” life, GREAT!

Did you know that our minds appear to have a special ability or tendency to seek-out things to worry about? Even when things seem to be going well in our life, our mind can oftentimes effortlessly drift over to a thought of something to worry about. How do I know this, you may ask? Well, it’s simply because it frequently happens to me.

That’s right my friends, not even Mr. BreadCrumb himself is exempt from this phenomenon. But a few years ago I made a solemn pact with myself that I would never give myself over to worrying about something in advance. After consistently putting this new philosophy into practice over the last few years, I now feel like I’m a master at not worrying.

I’d like to encourage you today to adopt the same philosophy and become a master of being worry-free. This little breadcrumb of wisdom can definitely make all the difference between you making this life “good” or you making this life GREAT!

Let’s choose to Make it GREAT!
