Happy Birthday Roxane! ????
Remember to wish your spouse, and other favourite people, a very happy birthday on their big day.
Now my lovely wife intends to celebrate for the entirety of the year. That should be fun!
So for now, suffice it to say, Happy Birthday Rox!
Better Late Than Never
Have you ever missed an opportunity, birthday, special occasion, etc? It’s not ideal and you feel a little rough about it. But in the end, you are better late than never. Just get there and enjoy from that moment on. There is not a lot more you can do in that moment.
Plan Your Golden Years Now
Even if you’re only 15, start planning now. You might simply note the years that you’ll be 60, 70, 80 and 90. Perhaps you’ll write down how much money you’d like to have flow into your pocket each month from your passions, savings and investments. Then you know what you need to accumulate to reach that income goal in 50 years.
Sort your will, funeral arrangements and inheritance planning. Get an outline of these things together and speak to people in these areas or read books and magazines about it.
Spend some time and money to create a very simple and effective plan. You’ll sleep better knowing it’s done and everything has been taken care of. And your family will greatly appreciate it when you’re gone as they can focus on mourning you rather than racing around to sort out the estate, plans and time-constrained challenges.
Take A Chance
If it’s moral and no one should get hurt, take a chance. Sometimes it will work out well in the short term, others in the long term and some not at all. The experience will be worth it.
Start Early
Whether it’s your day, a journey, planning, building or a major project, it’s always helpful to start early.
Rise Up!
Be your greatest self!! Lift yourself out of your situation. You can do it! Begin!!
Spice It Up!!
How can you add a little variety or fun in your life? Do you even know what feels fun anymore? Better have a think about it!
Think Better, Feel Better
This is very true. If you have poor thinking, you’ll have poor experiences in life. You may worry, be negative, get angered easily or have unrealistic expectations.
If you can train your mind to think better, be more positive and balance your emotions, you are very likely to feel better more often.
Give it a try for a week or two.
Trying To Make Things Better, Can Make Them Worse
Whether it’s welfare, tractors in Africa, lower lending standards, or government covid policies, when people with good intentions get involved, the long run outcome can be worse.
Of course the immediate benefit is observable and often desirable. Unfortunately, the second and third order implications can be less beneficial, or even damaging or disastrous. (Though rarely for the people that initiated the policy).
Many of the world’s modern issues are derived from well intentioned people getting in the way and trying to control outcomes. Most often, people would be better served if there was less human intervention and they let the natural course of events take place. There is balance in the universe. Sometimes we should respect that and be patient.
