Good Evening. Here is a great thought for the day: I always remember that neat line from "City Slickers" - the secret to life is always to keep the #1 thing the #1 thing. There's a lot of wisdom in that simple thought. Get rid of the good to make room for the great in your life. Sometimes instead of keeping the main thing the main thing, we major in too many minor things. In other words, many people do a few things that are good, a lot of things that are mediocre, but nothing that is great. Find the one thing you can be the best in the world at and focus relentlessly on improving that one thing; polishing it to perfection. Ask yourself: How can you make a living at this? How can you help the world value your contribution? How can you creatively stay true to your passion while having the success you desire? Get rid of the good to make room for the great in your life. Keep the #1 thing the #1 thing.
"Each morning is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When the sun rises tomorrow this day will be gone forever, in its place will be something you have left — may it be something good. Follow your heart, it knows what to do."
