Why Your Deficits Are Diamonds
I'm here to tell you why your deficits are diamonds. Actually, I'm here to explain that you don't have any deficits but I like the analogy. I endured many years of feeling less-than based on constant comparisons to those similar to me but "doing much better," as I used to tell myself. I focused on what I wasn't or couldn't, seeking ways to improve myself with more enthusiasm than celebrating what I already was.
Nonsense. Waste of precious time and energy. So many diamonds all around me, un…
My Purpose Is To Love
If you would have told me that my ultimate purpose in life was to love and then return to God, I would have had a difficult time accepting that premise.
I worked hard throughout my life, always pursuing my professional goals with vigor and determination. Gotta say, I've accomplished quite a bit since my first job (waitressing) in 1975. I'm sure you've done and feel the same or close to it. That started to change, however, last summer and since then I'm now clear that my purpose is to love - …

What Am I Here To Do?
What am I here to do? What is my purpose? What am I supposed to be doing with my life? Why am I here?
How can we not ask ourselves these questions at some point in our lives? Most of us want to contribute value to the world and feel like we make a difference.
It's especially a problem when you've been in the same kind of work for many years for security and finances but not because it feels worthwhile and fulfilling, or when you've devoted your life to raising kids, or when you are not only i…

How Do You Measure Success
It's not a new question, how do you measure success. We all know the standard answers and we certainly understand that it's not just a house with a white picket fence, a good job and a happy family anymore. Do we measure success by our level of happiness? By the toys we've accumulated? Perhaps, it's by our job title and salary.
My definition of being successful has definitely expanded and changed over the years from the natural progression in life and maturity as well as the challenges I've …
