Life's Passion: Can you help?
October 25
what comes next?
October 23
It official . . . I'm getting excited about this. Life'sPassion.org is really starting to shape up into a big campaign. I've now emailed 35 CEO's, company Boards of Directors, authors, legislators, teachers, mentors, senators and yes, even the current VP Dick Cheney and President George W Bush.
We've also created a Google Group (http://groups.google.com/group/lifes-passion), in order to provide yet another avenue for people to contribute their ideas to our cause. Please tell your friends, because this is going to be big!
(FYI: You can also email your comments about your life's passion to lifes-passion@googlegroups.com)
progress.
October 21
Sometimes, progress comes in leaps and bounds. Sometimes -- in small pieces. I'm working on a couple of projects, in addition to reading through a couple of great books (see what I'm reading in my library). Of course, depending on my projects, my reading comes in either small pieces or large leaps.
What are you working on? Is your progress coming along at a steady pace? Sometimes your progress is better to be measured by the outcome at the end, not by the time it takes to get there. I suppose it's a little bit like life; You should take several measurements along the way, but the truest measure of the total impact or success of your life will come at its end. Did you reach your goals? Did you show your compassion in your work and life? Did you act on your passion in life?

my passion.
I love working with others to solve their wants, needs and problems. I
love providing solutions to those needs. Sometimes, a client is so
put-off by the treatment they have received from someone else that they
fail to see how genuinely I want to help them. This is where my passion
meets my anti-passion. Then, for a moment, I see a glimmer of hope in
the eyes of the client -- no...my client -- or I hear the distant tone
of their hurts in their voice and it provides another boost of desire
to create a resolution to their problem.
Let the passion of your heart be ignited by any glimmer of hope or
voice of pain and allow yourself to reach out and help others.
What equals 100%
October 16
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been in situations where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 101%? What equals 100% in life? Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:
If A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z is represented as 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 then:
H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K = 97% (8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11)
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E = 96% (11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5)
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E = 100% (1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5)
But look how far the love of God will take you
L-O-V-E- O-F -G-O-D = 101% (12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4)
So we can conclude with mathematical certainty that: While hard work and knowledge will get you close, and attitude will get you there, it's the "Love of God" that will put you over the top!
MAY YOU BE 101% BLESSED TODAY!
