This afternoon I participated in a roundtable discussion at NARI. For the most part the conversation was upbeat. (More about that later.) Still, I felt a just a hint of frustration and weariness in the room. It’s hard. A lot harder than it used to be to compete, to win business, to inspire customer loyalty, to hang in there.
Sometimes it’s hard when you are running a business (or looking for a job maybe?) – to keep your spirits up. A friend shared this with me today, and while I’m not usually big on the “mushy” stuff, I felt like posting it. Sometimes success comes (at least in part) from finding peace within. Don’t you think?
“May there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us.”
