A Moment to Pause

“We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden . . . over the

horizon – instead of . . . enjoying the rose blooming

outside our window today.”

Dale Carnegie 1888 – 1955, American Writer, Lecturer and

Developer of Self-Help Courses

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

A moment to pause

 

Our life is moving at what seems to be at the speed of light . . . . the hours go by so fast that we never seem to have a moment for ourselves.

 

You become so focused on your next task . . . . or objective without giving much reflection on what you have just accomplished.

 

We all need to take a moment to pause . . . .

 

Without that moment we will fail to recognize the importance of the people in our lives and the value that they being into our life.

 

You will miss celebrating your successes . . . . and the value that they create in working towards your long term goals and objectives.

 

Life is a journey . . . . Appreciate what you have . . . . and strive to achieve what you want. 

 

Take a moment to pause . . . . and enjoy the people in your life . . . . and be thankful for what you have. In that moment you will refresh your awareness . . . . and be appreciative for the people in your life and your accomplishments.

Lou - it is so true

We all need to take a moment to pause .

It looks like Sunday will be a good day to take a pause from the busy world of real estate.

Good morning Lou. If the message is that we should smell the roses, I will have to do that from the inside as nothing is blooming on the outside.

Make it a great weekend!

 Good morning Lou. In our busy world, we often do not take the time to hit the pause button. Instead, we raced down the highway of life with the petal to the metal.

Thanks for the reminder Lou. Sometimes in the midst of such a busy day we need someone to tell us to lift our heads up for a second and enjoy the day we've been given.

     My Dad handed me Dale Carnegie's classic book, "How to Win Friends and Influence People", when I was 15 or 16 years old.  That book, and Dale Carnegie, have been with me ever since.
