You hear and read daily about how the world is changing, but in reality, it is we who are changing. The clock is ticking.

Change is not new. Down through the millennia, it has always been with us. Like it or not, we can’t hold it at bay. Life isn’t about what you did yesterday. It’s about what you are doing today and planning for tomorrow.

It is about continually learning, growing and sharing: sharing love, sharing success, knowledge and ideas. Helping others along their path, making a positive difference and doing stuff that matters.

Try as you might, there are five things you cannot take back in life:

1. The stone – after it has been cast.
2. The unkind word – after it has been spoken.
3. The occasion – after it has been lost.
4. The time – after it has gone.
5. A person – after she or he dies.

All of this to say, if you are not altogether happy with your life and the picture you see, let today be the day to break with conventional wisdom and the status quo.

Vow to unlock your heart, unleash your creativity, screw up your courage – and try something new. Something that will engage your whole being, not just your wallet. Let go of yesterday and, while it’s here, grab hold of today.

If this is resonating, and you are consciously considering making some changes, I invite you to read the information in the box below….we’re starting something new.

Happiness is not ready made. It comes from your own actions. Dalai Lama.

Happiness is elusive. It’s a constantly moving target. If you asked me to describe what I thought constituted happiness, I would say that happiness happens when what you think and say is in sync with what you do.

Reduced to an even simpler level, happiness is loving what you do and loving who you are with.

Over to you…..

Boredom is the route of all evil – the despairing refusal to be oneself. Soren Kierkgaarde.

Doing the same thing, month after month, year after year inevitably leads to boredom. Sheer, numbness of the mind that is guaranteed to produce ennui and squeeze the joy out of your life.

The way out of boredom begins with a change of some sort. To change is to grow. We all need to grow. Growing is as necessary as breathing. Humankind thrives on the new and different. It is in our DNA.

Change, though, is something most have a great deal of accepting. To the fearful, it is threatening because it means things might get worse. To the hopeful it is encouraging because things might get better. To the confident change is inspiring because the challenge exits to make it better.

Change can be disruptive. No doubt about it. But when you’re engaged in something you love doing, you never see the time. Happiness is a constant companion.

Doing what you love, finding that thing that gets you up every morning is a challenge. It doesn’t usually come without a lot of thought, sacrifice and hard work.

Easier said than done, I know. But there it is.

The best part of life is not just surviving, but surviving with passion, humour, style, and kindness. Maya Angelou.

In the great parade of life, 90% of people don’t even know there is a parade going by, 7% are standing on the sidelines watching and 3% are the parade.

Hmmm…

Life can only be understood backwards but it must be lived forwards. Soren Kierkegaard.

In today’s world of constant change, there is growing community of accomplished men and women who, regardless of where they currently are on their journey or their life situation, are not content to sit back on their laurels.

They continue to reach out, looking for a new vision, something more, something else to engage both their mind and their heart.

Always up for a new challenge, determined to stay relevant, they want to maximize their potential and get to the very top of themselves.

Curious and courageous, they see life through the front windshield rather than the rear view mirror. They are living forward, in what I euphemistically call The 3rdAGE.

Ring a bell? Can you hear yourself speaking as you read this?

Then you won’t want to miss my new, thought provoking 3rdAGE WORKSHOP. It isn’t just another run-of-the-mill, casual get together. No,no.no…. it is a pilot program for the spirit. A gathering of like minds who want to (re)invigorate their spirit, do something that matters and live more joyfully, with ease.

For some that might mean simply stepping up their current game and sharpening their skills. For others, it could well involve re-imagining themselves and striking out in a totally different direction.

The thing is, whatever it is, regardless of the quest, often many in this situation find themselves at an impasse, unsure how to move ahead, to get on with what’s next: More often than not, it could just mean identifying what form that something else takes.

Life can be complicated. Living well doesn’t just happen. But if you have been thinking about your present direction and are considering other alternatives, I invite you to attend. You’ll find all the details online.
