Sunset flight with a friend I made by reaching out – Beautiful view of Ucluelet and the Pacific Ocean
I try to surround myself and connect with people that will educate me, guide me and provide me with inspiration. Today I was fortunate enough to read some wise words from one of those people in my circles.
His words were the following
I used to read Dr Seuss to my daughter. “Oh the places you’ll go” was a favourite. I changed a few words around, but generally it was a good story with a great message. I thought of the waiting place in it, Life is too short to wait. Do it now. whatever it may be. We only have a limited amount of tomorrow’s
I was thankful to read that today and his response to me was that I was the one living the dream. I responded that I feel I really am not.
Is it a dream or just a vivid reality where you just decide you want to reach out to others and find a connection of mindfulness and positive intentions . Like he said , we just have to decide to do something ….. Our tomorrow’s are finite.
So starting tomorrow start making a decision to use those days wisely.
- Go meet someone new
- Go explore somewhere you have never been
- Try something new
- Control how you react to things that happen, be mindful
- Start saying yes to new opportunities
In the end , just be a damn good human being and do something #BeyondTheUsual
Cheers

This post reminds me of a Winston Churchill quote I like to think about when I’m feeling doubtful: “Fear is a reaction. Courage is a decision.” Thanks for sharing this!
Equally wise words Nicholas, I’ve been working hard on how I react to things within my circle as ultimately it is all I can control.
