Words of Wisdom from
an Eight-Year-Old?

You're well aware, logically, that the past
and the future share two characteristics...
they are both illusions! These illusions,
however, have deadly side-effects; dwelling
on the past leads to resentment, while fixating
on the future leads to fear. So it is
paramount that we stay focused on the only part
of our lives that is not an illusion - the
present moment!

As usual, fun is our invaluable sidekick for
staying in the present moment. One of my Fun
Commandments, Stay Focused, Yet Flexible,
teaches us to remain flexible enough to
accommodate life's inevitable surprises, while
remaining focused on our current goals and
priorities.

Balance is the cornerstone for
your ability to achieve "flexible focus."

And now, back to my recent discovery of a
new self-help guru (of the 8-year-old variety)...

The other night I'm watching, fascitated, as
my eight-year-old grandson builds something
with his Kinex toys.

I muse aloud, "Jordan, I wonder what kind of
interests you'll have when you're older?"

Jordan replies, in an offhand manner, "Pop-Pop,
I'm not that kind of guy."

I chuckle and ask, "What kind of guy is that,
Jordan?"

Jordan says, matter of factly as he continues
building, "The kind of guy who thinks about his future."

Yes...out of the mouths of babes! Jordan
reminded me to stay focused, yet flexible.
