“Life’s what you make it – celebrate it. Anticipate it –
yesterday’s faded.” If you don’t
recognize these lyrics, they come from a song by the 1980’s English band, Talk Talk. You should YouTube them – they are awesome!
Getting to the point of this blog posting, this Mantra of
sorts will be more relevant than ever as we finally see momentum in climbing
out of the recession.
Bad news and bad things happen to all of us. As humans, we are allowed to wallow from time
to time. It’s when we continually hold
ourselves back or, worse yet, burden or unnecessarily worry friends, relatives
and even complete strangers with our woes that it becomes a major issue.
Many times, the latter actually serves to drive these people
away. It’s hard to remember when life is crashing all around us, but how we
respond to the situation at hand is really the more important testament to our
character.
Here’s the cool thing. We have unique opportunities out
there to rise from the proverbial “ashes” and reinvent ourselves. It’s up to us to be open to the
possibilities.
A week from now (May 30), you have the opportunity to attend
CBE’s “Eighth Annual Business Summit” at the Daytona Beach Hilton.
There will be many valuable workshops, but I would be remiss
if I didn’t mention our keynote speaker Connie Podesta will be addressing this
topic. So, what are you waiting for? Click
