I was just editing a transcript from a client who’s one of the top chiropractors in San Diego, and he was talking about how biz is not fun unless he’s putting great fun into the rest of his life — in his case it was surfing (natch!)

Being “full” of what makes us “be” our best is so multi-dimensional, and it not only reflects in our work, but it draws the kind of people we want to work with, helps us draw the right boundaries, and maintain time for what’s more important than work.

Look forward to the follow-up post!

The post is already written, actually. I wrote it this morning immediately after writing this one. And then I wrote another one after that — three in a row.

The next post is scheduled for Monday morning. :-)

@Perry – We’re all the same in that regard — it’s very difficult to stay consistently focused and not waste time.

Molly is such a sweet and smart lady. I attended a live workshop she also attended. She hit the nail on the head.

And Jason, you crack me up. How are you going to work the controller if your hands don’t work? :)

Not wasting time is probably the biggest battle I face. When I really focus, I can get a ton of stuff done in a short time.

When I allow myself to get distracted, I waste incredible amounts of time.

Keeping in mind the scriptures you’ve quoted above, can help everyone, even they don’t have a religious or spiritual bone in their body.

And getting those goals written down and posted where you can read them helps.

As the saying goes, “When we are young, we spend our health to get wealth. Then, when we are old, we spend our wealth to try to get our health back.”

Ironic, isn’t it?

I just like to add that we sometimes feel as if our greatest assets can be measured in monetary value or “How much money and possessions one has”.

Here’s some great assests-
Relationships-spouse, family, friends
Our gifts or abilities and using them to benefit others, not just ourselves
Our time- we all have 24 hours in a day but we can profit from using it wisely
And I really like this one- Our Health, If we’re sick it’s hard to enjoy even the greatest financial wealth.

Finally, We are not robots-We posses the power to make quality decisions.
That’s a great asset
I look forward to seeing how your goals have changed in your next blog post.

I was on a call with Molly Gordon yesterday, and she was talking about how to find your niche and “thrive in the sweet spot.”

Something she said stuck with me. She said, “The ’sweet spot’ is where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.”

I might say, “where your deep talent and the world’s deep hunger meet.”

This is just another way to think about our unique skills/abilities and how we can serve others.
