REMEMBER WHAT’S IMPORTANT

Last night after dinner I watched a family movie,Kicking and Screaming. Essentially the movie was about the relationship between a father and son and their relationship to winning. The son hated his father’s obsession with winning and being the best. However in his desire to beat his father he becomes just like his father. He sacrifices his own relationship with his own son and forgets what his true values are. Isn’t that what happens to many of us?

In our obsession with making it in the world we forget what is important to us. We become one trick ponies and don’t have time or the energy for other things. Our relationships suffer and we suddenly wake up one day and realize that our life seems empty in many ways. It’s time to assess what’s going on in your life.

Ask yourself…are you satisfied with what you have accomplished so far this year? And then ask yourself how satisfied are you with who you have become? Perhaps the answer to the second question will be more revealing. Don be like the guy in the movie.

Taking time for yourself everyday before the day gets going is the best way to take care of yourself.
