Don't forget to stop and enjoy the play!!
"Play isn't something separate from the daily grind of life. It is not something to finally get to when work ends. Rather, play like music, is a force that we feel in our bones and that whispers in our hearts. As kids demonstrate play is not over there, but forever here and now."
-Vince Gowmon
"It's okay to be absurd, ridiculous and downright irrational at times, silliness is the sweet syrup that helps us swallow the bitter pills of life." - Richelle E. Goodrich

Howard Thurman- "Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive."
Use this week to assess your life and ask yourself what you need to feel more alive!! Build a good foundation of good health to help you focus on your passion.
Today I discuss ways to intentionally slow down and create a calming morning routine. Our world is so fast paced that we need to focus on ways to enjoy our mornings without rushing around and creating a hectic atmosphere.
School is starting!! For all of you that are going to school, teaching at school and who have children at school I hope you have a wonderful and fulfilled year!!!

The show Departures by Scott Wilson, Justin Lukach and Andre Dupuis is the inspiration for todays talk. I discuss Season 1 Episodes 9 and 10 and the extreme living that these guys show us. Yes, there is a little discussion of how Scott and Justin represent the Super Ego and the Id, as Freud defines it. We should all make sure we are living with a little Id and extremeness to our life to get the blood pumping and the adrenaline flowing.
