What if we lived a little more everyday in every aspect from business to love to creating and full circle?


I think about this everyday... I think about my life in this aspect everday...


I guess what really makes me think more and more about this is that as I get older and progress further along in my career and relationships - I see myself putting more and more limitations and restrictions on myself from growing more successful in every aspect of my life. I see a lot of people around me everyday doing the same and I am tired of it!


I am tired of knowing my potential and seeing others around me limit theirs as well!


Here is an example that rings in my head all day everyday - My brother is mentally handicapped and knows no limitations on his strengths. He is a 7 year old in a 42 year old man's body (stress free for 42 years by the way) When you ask him to lift the heavy oak table to make room for more chairs for family to sit during the holidays - He does it with ease with no thought, limitations, or restrictions. When I do it - I automatically put mental restrictions and limitations in my head like - "wow, this is going to be heavy" or "I hope I lift this correctly so that I don't hurt my back and then cannot work" or "am I going to look silly struggling to lift this 'oh so' heavy table in front of everyone?" I have now added 100 lbs to the table and stress to the situation and my health in general.


Not to ramble on too much here - But, I see too many people including myself putting too many restrictions and limitations on their life including socially, personally, business, etc etc that is lowering your quality of life full circle.


I can use this thought pattern as a testimonial to how I have grown my title insurance company / business in a struggling market / economy or gotten people to give and donate to The Boy's & Girl's Club's and Special Olympics in the same - a struggling market / economy.


I leave you with a quote that I thought of while typing this out:


Living with no fear, limitations, or restrictions opens new doors everyday to new opportunities you have only dreamed of or once lived as a kid!

This is what Andy Andrews, the author of the Traveller's Gift says:


Successful people make decisions quickly and change their minds slowly.   Unsuccessful people make decisions slowly and change their minds quickly.


How true!!


Totally agree - don't live in fear - it wastes too much valuable time.
