What are you craving today? We all want something different. When you go to a cafeteria or buffet - that is the draw. You only have to get what YOU want. Do you want chicken? Pasta? Salad? Dessert? well get that. And if there is something your don't want....just move along. And at the end of the line you only pay for what you choose. The same is true in life - you get to 'choose' what you want to do. Life has a lot of options - and you don't have to do everything. But it isn't so easy.... Here is the challenge... yes you get to choose, but you must choose wisely. What you choose is what you get AND you must be willing to pay for what you take.... Do you want to be more productive

i love my car, but one thing i don't care for is the maintenance part of owning a car. It takes time, money and effort to keep it running. However if i don't maintain it, it will not run, or perform, at the level i need it to.... and i need my car to run. We are like our cars.

We want the end results but are not willing to do what it will take to get there. It isn't enough to be in love with the end of the journey - you Must believe in and fall in love with the process to get there. You must find a way to love the work it will take, the habits you need and the daily disciplines required along the way. I will also say the process will not always be fun and you may n

There was a man and his dog sitting on a porch. Every few minutes the dog would let out a low moan. This went on for a while. A friend came by and asked the man “what’s wrong with your dog? Why is he moaning like that?’ “well, said the owner, he is laying on a nail.” “why doesn’t he just move?” asked the onlooker “because it doesn’t hurt him enough to move.” I love this story because many of us do the same thing. We have pain, but it is not quite enough to make us move. We stay in a situation, dealing with the discomfort because the idea and effort to move is greater than the actual pain we are enduring. The situation hurts…but not enough. The problem is this…. if we don’t move, we c
