Why Winning the World Series Doesn't Really Matter

"It all starts with a SMILE"

My wife and I went to my son Greg's house for a cookout the
other night.

If you are lucky enough to have a child grow old enough (and
responsible enough) to completely fix your meal for you
(including all the clean up) so you don't have to lift a finger
- than you know what kind of heaven we experienced!

(But, to be honest, only my wife experienced that. I've been
the blessed beneficiary of that kind of treatment most of my
married life!)

As good as the food was. As wonderful as the relaxing adult
conversation on the outside porch was. As calming as the
wonderful Louisville evening was. The highlight of the evening
was my son's three children and their two friends.

We watched these five boys (does my son live off intravenous
coffee?) chase rabbits, leap from stumps, play "lion versus
antelope", football, basketball, and knights-versus-villains. And
that was all before dinner.

After dinner we were extolled to join a baseball game - adults
versus kids. My son, my wife, my son's friend, and I versus
these five boys. It would've been easy to say "no" to the
baseball; I had been speaking in far eastern KY and my wife had
already had a yoga class that day. Plus two of us (I won't say
which two) aren't exactly confident in our baseball acumen!

But we all made a decision to have fun. And that is what I want
to remind you to do this week! Make a decision, each day, to
have fun. Forget about the outcome for a while. Forget about
the results for a moment. Just have fun!

If you make that decision, I promise you there will be plenty of
baseball games and lots of kids to play with. Perhaps not
literally, of course. But the opportunities will present
themselves and your life will be richer and more successful.

We lost the game, by the way. I popped out to the pitcher with
the tying run on third base, which sparked a celebration by the
boys rivaling the last World Series victory! And you what? I
laughed and smiled so much that you'd of thought I had won the
Series!

So get in the game this week. Take chances. Step outside your
normal routines and your comfort zones. Make a decision to have
fun and say "yes" to the opportunities you find!
