I am tired of chasing
the next shiny object
I am tired of branding
and building market share
I am tired of charts and statistics
and happy talk in the newspaper about economic recovery
when I see people around me all struggling.
Today I go back to basics
meeting people to break bread
and facing them, eye to eye.
Today I will work on what is in front of me
drilling down to the bottom of my desk
to find the diamonds
that have been right in front of me
the whole time.
This daily journal came from a promise. Right before Memorial Day 2009, I met with my business coach Joe Stumpf. I shared with him my total burn out in my business of 20 years. Frustrated by what my life had become, I promised to get up at 5:00 AM every day, meditate and journal and focus on bringing passion back into every aspect of my life, my work, my family and my personal growth. Instead of going to work every day and having a PITY PARTY, I have decided to have a PASSION PARTY.
