Stephen and I had a book signing this week. We were approached by individuals that were badly shaken by our current economy. They were both fearful of their future, but hopeful that our current administration might set things right again. We talked about all the changes that have occurred in the last six months that have impacted our lives. In reality, we have little or no control over many of these external forces.
When we asked individuals more about their personal lives, we heard interesting stories of changes they have made to improve the quality of their lives. One couple on a fixed income has started an E-Bay business to produce additional income. They are having fun with this business, and would not have dreamed of operating their own small business if the economic times were better. Another woman has started consulting and nonprofit work in her 'secondment.' Her life is full and happy. Another individual shared that they have always wanted to write a book. We encouraged her to pursue her dream.
Our message was about 'What's Next In Your Life' that can lead to fulfillment. How can you turn your past successes into significance or simply weather the storm with more grace and control? Ask yourself about changes that would improve the quality of your life. We have more control than you might think. Do it today!
Joan & Stephen
