Perfection is an impossible quest. It is a journey, a destination forever out of reach. Aim for excellence, instead. Excellence has nothing to do with outward appearances or with what you accomplish or with what you possess or what you “should” be ... it depends solely on being the best that you can be. 

 

Be excellent.

Tamara

 

The clock of life is wound but once and no man has the power to tell just when the hands will stop. Now is the only time you own. Live, love, toil with a will. Place no faith in time. For the clock may soon be still.  ~ author unknown

EXPERIENCE

Okay, it happened.  The dreaded I've-been-talking-with-you-all-evening-and-now-I-call-you-the-wrong-name fumble.  Well, I sucked in my breath, and said "I'm sorry <correct name>, for calling you <wrong name>" and we resumed our chat.  Thankfully, I heeded the suggestion of Charles Purdy in Urban Etiquette to briefly acknowledge the error and move on.  It may seem easier to pretend nothing happened but in the long run ignoring the error is not good for how others perceive you.  In the lyrics from one of my fave songs "I get knocked down, but I get up again ..." 

OBSERVATION

Justice, Beauty, Truth, Joy, and Harmony, all these ideals reside as potential in our souls; they are inextricably interconnected and feed each other; they are our spiritual birthright. Our task in this moment of human evolution is to actualize these ideals – bring them to life through our lives, make them manifest through our thoughts, our words, our actions and our unique gifts.  This is a choice that each one of us makes, every moment and every day.   ~ Louise Diamond, CEO The Peace Company

ADVICE

Look within your heart to find a way to create a moment for someone you love - a memory that will live on in both of your hearts long after this day is forgotten...  What could you say, do, or give to them that would touch their heart so deeply, that neither of you will ever forget the moment that you shared?

TILT (This I Learned Today)

The Franklin Covey website has a fun program to help clients build their Life Purpose statement.  There are three paths to create your statement...  Give it a try! Create your personal Mission Statement.
