"All Our Dreams Can Come True, If We Have The Courage To Pursue Them." ~Walt Disney Finding and keeping this kind of courage is challenging at best. So much in life seeks to suck that out, to bring us down and drain our dreams into dust. Pursuing our dreams is often more work than surviving, but it's far more rewarding, giving life and energy.  May you find and nurture that inspires and invigorates you. 

This notion terrifies me, in the best possible way.

I've had to remind myself of this quite a few times.

Go get 'em, folks!

My motivational post of the day:

Here's a little motivational thing:

A mediation on today's post by Seth Godin: "The respect of 'why'" . Questionsall was my first Twitter handle, and is the title of my poetry blog, and my very first site here on  Blogger .  I deeply value questioning, on probing. In not accepting things at face value. I believe the path to a great life comes through questions. What do I want to do with my life? What feeds my soul? What makes my heart soar? What steals my energy? My passion? My joy?  Hence, wise leaders accept the value of questioning. Everyone on the team needs to value the mission, share the dream and the goals. Then, and only then, will you have a team of innovators.  Obedient serfs don't innovate!

As you may have noticed, I think very highly of Seth Godin. This blog post gave words to an idea I've been considering: Money for nothing Seth says "...your best work isn't nothing...". I adore that! A reminder that our work  is valuable, that our lives have worth. Seeking shortcuts to accomplishment not only shortchanges the one seeking the easy path, it short changes us all. We need to see the value we add, embrace that, and, then, get to work! I hope you have a marvelously productive Monday! When searching for a "Featured Image" for this post, I came across this one. Reminds of my favorite things when working for Starbucks and Microsoft.
