I received this quote in my email today and it really applies to my current situation:
“Now” is the operative word. Everything you put in your way is just a method of putting off the hour when you could actually be doing your dream. You don’t need endless time and perfect conditions. Do it now. Do it today. Do it for twenty minutes and watch your heart start beating. ~ Sam Ewing
My four-year-old grandson had an interesting experience a few weeks ago. I gave his mom a box of MultiGrain Cheerios for them to enjoy. The next morning she noticed that my grandson was looking for food in the refrigerator. This was rather odd because his bowl of cereal was sitting on the table waiting for him. When she asked him why he wasn’t eating his Cheerios, he told her that some of them were burned and he didn’t want to eat them. Since this was his first time to eat MultiGrain Cheerios he didn’t understand why some of them were darker than others. Once his mom explained to him that they just looked different because they were made from a different grain he ate them without any problems.
I don’t know about you but sometimes I allow myself to feel bad because I’m getting older and haven’t achieved as many things as I would have liked. However, once again, the Olympic games provided some true inspiration for me. Another swimmer, Dara Torres, competed in the games and broke records at the age of 41. I couldn’t physically have done what she did at age 25 much less 41! During an interview with her, she mentioned that she has a team of people who work with her to help her overcome any problems that age presents, ie. sore muscles, fatigue, etc. Working with her team, she is able to do more than your average 41-year-old.
