As you get OLDER you make a CHOICE to LISTEN MORE and SAY LESS

      Throughout your life you were EXCITED to SHARE ALL YOUR THOUGHTS and FUTURE PLANS.

     The OLDER you get you REALIZE that to LISTEN to OTHER PEOPLES THOUGHTS and PLANS is IMPORTANT so THEY CAN SHARE IT WITH SONEONE.

      You have SPENT DECADES TALKING ABOUT YOUR THOUGHTS and you DON'T MAKE as MANY PLANS because YOU DID MOST OF THEM Throughout the last few decades.

      Just because YOU KNOW that putting TOO MANY MILES ON YOUR CAR makes it LAST A LOT LESS LONGER you just DON'T SUGGEST that to people younger to DRIVE LESS just for THAT REASON.

     Why? Because RUNNING AROUND TOO MUCH was IMPORTANT TO YOU TOO when you were YOUNGER.

     And now that you are OLDER YOU KNOW how HAPPY THOSE DAYS WERE and YOU TREASURE THOSE WILDER YOUNG TIMES.

      OF COURSE you just LISTEN as YOU THINK OF THOSE WILD TIMES YOU HAD and YOU DON'T TELL THEM WHAT YOU DID... YOU JUST LISTEN AND SMILE as YOU ENJOY YOUR MEMORIES FROM YOUR YOUNGER DAYS.

     KEEP YOUR TREASURED MEMORIES because WHEN YOU GET OLDER YOU WILL TREASURE THEM and you will be THANKFUL that they are YOUR SECRET MEMORIES that are BEST TO KEEP TO YOURSELF. 🥳

Don't forget that once YOU SAY IT then it is IN FACT WHAT YOU SAID

       When you get ANGRY then you should STOP TALKING and THINK BEFORE YOU SAY ONE WORD.

       Because ONCE YOU SAY IT OUTLOUD it is PERMANENTLY HEARD..... even if you WISH YOU HAD NOT SAID IT.

       Even when you FEEL LIKE you WANT to ANGRILY TELL THEM how WHAT THEY DID HAD HURT YOU.

      TRUST ME that YOUR ANGRY WORDS would have ONLY MADE THINGS HARDER FOR YOU. 

      If you STOP AND THINK about what you WANTED TO SAY you will REALIZE that YOU ARE GLAD YOU DIDN'T SAY IT. 

     Now HOW IT MADE YOU FEEL may make you CHANGE what you WILL OR WONT DO in the FUTURE.

      But for now just BE CAREFUL about what YOU CHOOSE TO SAY OUTLOUD.

      BEING KIND TO YOURSELF is the BEST THING YOU CAN DO IN ANY TYPE OF CIRCUMSTANCES that you HAVE TO DEAL with.

      At the end of the day the ONLY THING THAT MATTERS is if YOU ARE PROUD of HOW YOU HANDLED the CIRCUMSTANCES that YOU HAD TO FACE.

     

     

Will YOU be HAPPY FOR YOURSELF if YOU COULD BE HONEST about BEING YOURSELF?

      Your family and your friends may be good at SKATING and you MIGHT WANT TO SKATE but the TRUTH IS that YOU TRIED IT BUT YOU REALIZED THAT YOU CAN'T SKATE. 

     Your friends DONT ALWAYS CHOOSE TO DO EVERYTHING that YOU LIKE but there are many other things that YOU DO LIKE DOING WITH THEM.

    DO you like scary RIDES at an AMUSEMENT PARK?

     If YOU DON'T THEN it is BEST to TELL YOUR FRIENDS that YOU will HOLD ON TO THEIR PHONES while THEY RIDE that ROLLERCOASTER WITHOUT YOU.

      If your friends like scary ROLLERCOASTERS that DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE TO RIDE A ROLLERCOASTER because YOU KNOW YOU DON'T LIKE riding on a ROLLERCOASTER. 

      I had a friend that FELT SO MUCH PRESSURE about SAYING NO I AM AFRAID OF ROLLERCOASTERS that SHE MISSED GOING TO THE PARK WITH THEM.

     There was MANY THING'S besides ROLLERCOASTERS that SHE COULD HAVE ENJOYED WITH HER FRIENDS, if she would have went.

       If YOU KEEP CHANGING WHO YOU ARE to PLEASE OTHERS then YOU WILL FORGET WHO YOU TRULY ARE. 

      If YOU KEEP DISTANCE because YOU HIDE YOURSELF FROM OTHERS then YOU WILL HAVE A LONELY LIFE because WE ARE ALL UNIQUE and YOUR UNIQUENESS is WHY THEY LIKE YOU. 

     We all ONLY HAVE ONE LIFE TO LIVE and WE NEED TO BE OURSELVES AND ENJOY EVERY MOMENT WE HAVE and IF YOU HATE ROLLERCOASTERS than DON'T RIDE ONE.

     

     

A TEAMMATE is an IMPORTANT PART OF THE TEAM

      When you BUILD A HOUSE you NEED MORE THEN an ARCHITECT that DRAWS A PICTURE of exactly the size of every wall.

       HOW MANY TYPES OF BUSINESSES do you THINK IT WOULD TAKE to completely BUILD A HOUSE?

      When you BUILD A BUSINESS it will TAKE more than you DECIDING WHAT BUSINESS you want to INVEST YOUR TIME AND MONEY INTO.

       TAKE THE TIME to LEARN EVERYTHING that you WILL NEED to MAKE THE BUSINESS that you want to SUCCEED if you WANT TO have A CHANCE TO SUCCEED. 

       But ONCE you CHOOSE THE STANDARDS THAT YOU WILL LIVE BY DURING YOUR BUSINESS or YOUR PERSONAL LIFE then STICK TO YOUR STANDARDS NO MATTER WHAT ANY TEAMMATE MAY SAY.

       BECAUSE at THE END OF THE DAY the ONLY THING THAT MATTERS PERSONALLY OR PROFESSIONALLY is whether YOU ARE PROUD OF EVERYTHING THAT YOU CHOSE TO DO OR NOT TO DO EACH DAY.

      In LIFE whenever it TAKES A TEAM to GET IT DONE then remember that EVEN A BOSS HAS TO BE A GOOD TEAMMATE for the TEAM TO SUCCEED.  

      And if ONE DAY YOU REALIZE that YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN DO SOMETHING because it takes only ONE TEAMMATE ALONE then ACCEPT IT AND GET UP AND GET 'R DONE.

      

       

        

      

Having A CHANCE is AT LEAST A CHANCE

      Lots of PEOPLE TRY even WHEN everyone KNOWS that there will be ONLY ONE WINNER.

      Lots of PEOPLE MIGHT THINK ABOUT IT yet they DON'T REACT ON IT.

      But EVENTUALLY SOMEONE ELSE DOES REACT QUICKLY and THEY ACCOMPLISH IT and ARE SUCCESSFUL AT DOING IT.

     The TRUTH IS that OPPORTUNITIES YOU MISS OUT ON ARE NEVER LOST they are JUST TAKEN BY SOMEONE ELSE. 

    SOME PEOPLE ASK WHY something HAPPENS...

     SOME PEOPLE ASK HOW something COULD HAVE HAPPENED....

      SOME PEOPLE MAKE THINGS HAPPEN....

      WHICH ONE ARE YOU?

      IF YOU GOT A CHANCE THEN TAKE IT because IF YOU DON'T then YOU WILL NEVER EVER GET IT.

     

JUST BECAUSE means....ADJUST AS NECESSARY.

      You may NOT LIKE THE ANSWER but whether YOU LIKE IT OR NOT it STILL MEANS it is STILL THE TRUTHFUL ANSWER. 

      Which MEANS YOU HAVE TO ADJUST so YOU CAN ACCEPT THE ANSWER and JUST DO IT. 

      When the ROAD YOU ARE ON IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION then whether YOU LIKE IT OR NOT the journey YOU ARE ON WILL TAKE LONGER TO DRIVE ON.

     So YOU HAVE TO ADJUST and LEAVE EARLIER so YOU WILL HAVE TIME for a LONGER RIDE because YOU KNOW CONSTRUCTION MEANS LONGER RIDES.

     PRICES ARE HIGHER so it MEANS YOU HAVE TO ADJUST and SHOP SMARTER and STOCK UP when things GO ON SALE.

     JUST BECAUSE things CHANGE MEANS....YOU HAVE TO ADJUST so YOU CAN KEEP UP with all the CHANGES whether YOU WANTED ANYTHING TO CHANGE OR NOT.

     LIFE IS FULL OF CHANGES but to ENJOY LIFE YOU HAVE TO GO WITH THE FLOW ON YOUR LIFE'S JOURNEY and ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF IT.

     REMEMBER that YOU CAN'T GET TOO COMFORTABLE IN LIFE because LIFE IS ALWAYS CHANGING so ADJUST AS YOU GO. 

     

     

It COULD BE just a CARD AWAY

      I wanted to LOOK for SOMETHING SPECIAL for someone yet I KNEW that NO ONE I NEW DIDN'T NEED MORE JUNK in their home. 

      So I walked around for a moment then I EVENTUALLY ENDED UP in the CARD SECTION AT THE STORE. 

      I  DECIDED I COULD SHOP FOR A SPECIAL CARD that WOULD MAKE SOMEONE SMILE. 

     And ANYTIME YOU MAKE SOMEONE SMILE FOR EVEN A MOMENT it is SPECIAL!

     I started out PICKING BIRTHDAY CARDS then I NOTICE some SECTIONS for THANK YOU CARDS, ENCOURAGING CARDS, as well as MANY FUNNY CARDS that WERE MADE JUST TO MAKE SOMEONE SMILE for NO REASON AT ALL.

     After around 30 MINUTES LATER I was HAPPY WITH the CARDS I PICKED and I HAD A BLAST as I READ some REALLY COOL CARDS that were actually available.

     How long has it been since YOU ENJOYED THE CARD AISLE at a store?

     The NEXT TIME YOU are BORED and YOU HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO DO just HANG OUT AND READ AS MANY CARDS THAT YOU WANT TO and REMEMBER that it is also TOTALLY FREE ENTERTAINMENT.
