Find Wisdom in unlikely places

I’m ready to mark this done! I do, indeed, find wisdom in unlikely places on a regular basis. Keeping an open mind and really paying attention to the world around me has helped. I am constantly inspired by things I see or read and people I meet. Everything has a tidbit of wisdom to share. Even me. =)

Initially I thought this would be an easy goal. So far, it hasn’t been. It’s time for me to start paying attention because I’m sure wisdom surrounds me.

Well not so much an unlikely place – 43Thing.com itself…

Entertain a mix of ambitious and silly goals.
Goals should vary from ambitious (write a book, be financially independent) to silly (consider getting a pet fox, bet $100 on a rock paper scissors match) to novelty-seeking (try a new restaurant every week, go to the opera) to personal (fall madly in love, lose 10 pounds) to world-improving (convert to green energy, give 10% to charity) to educational (learn Italian, read a book a week).
Marking off a few silly or easier goals is a good way to build confidence and momentum for larger more ambitious goals.
When you’ve recently gotten rid of your television and spoken in front of a crowd of fifty, it becomes a hundred times easier to pitch your book idea to a publisher, or call someone about a lease on a space for your new business.

After sorting through some old things, I found a notebook. Inside it I had written a message from a psychic a while ago.
They read;

If you believed that you deserve everything you want,
you’d have it.

The other one said Everything you’re looking for, lies behind the mask you wear

The second one really touches me deeply. I have this annoying inner struggle, and I just want it to end.

If you’re not standing at the edge, you’re taking up too much space
