Waste your money and you’re only out of money, but waste your time and you’ve lost part of your life. — Michael Leboeuf

I Choose a great day….

We have a Whirlpool product somewhere in our home and I think I we have an extended warranty on it.

So when I saw an e-mail with Whirlpool in the subject line – my first thought was “Dang, I must have forgotten to remove myself from their spam engine.”  As I went to delete it, something stopped me and so I took a closer look.   I am so glad I did because here is what I found…

It really cleaned up my attitude for a cleaner and more caring day.

Tomorrow I will share another from their “Care Project”…that can also be used in a team or family meeting.

Caring About Culture

Last night I watched this wonderful clip in my hotel room – felt so good I cried.

I probably shouldn’t have watched it after a week of being away from my family.

It was like the best moments of the Toy Story movies when for just a few seconds you remembered the joy and imagination you had as a child. The last 15 seconds of this clip is rich

Have a wonderful weekend….

The above flyer is just a fun jpg I found to go with the below quote from Cynthia Occeli.  So don’t get the idea I am promoting “Brew” .

But I am in favor of stopping the invasion of the dream crushers of life.  And to stop them we must first understand them…. and this might help.

Too many have long since given up their dream... and your dream is too painful of a reminder of their own loss.  Your dream makes you different and hard to understand.  And people don’t like what is different and what they can’t understand. So they attack it.

There are so very many reasons that people give up their dreams and lose their vision.   Don’t let one of them be yours.

Dream On –

Live the Dream –

Start today – Dream With Both Eyes Open Wide – In Awe of Your Creation in Process

Here is the lyrics to Aerosmith… Dream ON – the phrase doesn’t kick in until the 3 min mark.

It’s only 1:30 long.
I’ve already watched it five times.
And each time I couldn’t stop smiling.

The video shows a mom dancing with her son.
He is a professional dancer who has worked with Taylor Swift.

She is deaf.
But you’d never know it watching her.

I have no idea how she keeps the beat.
I’m guessing she can feel the vibrations in the floor from the music.

She’s actually very good.
But what I really like is her smile.
And seeing her having so much fun with her son.

I hope you like it as much as I do.

Here’s an extra smile for you today:

As parents, we sometimes go too far trying to help and protect our kids from life’s harsh realities and disappointments.

We don’t want our kids to struggle like we did. 
But Harvard psychiatrist Dr. Dan Kindlon says that overprotected children are more likely to struggle in relationships and with challenges.
We’re sending our kids the message that they’re not capable of helping themselves.
To quote clinical psychologist Dr. Wendy Mogel:
“It is our job to prepare our children for the road, not prepare the road for our children.”
