Words That Inspire - CHOICE
What CHOICE do you want to make? Dictionary* says: the act of choosing, power of choosing, a person or thing chosen, the best part, care in selecting. What it REALLY means:
making a commitment to what matters to you; acting on your priorities and your values; expressing to yourself and to others what you want and need in your life. Why it MATTERS?
CHOICE moves you from stuck into action; from uncertainty to decision. CHOICE gives you freedom from 'what should I do?' Questions that INSPIRE: ? What CHOICE do you want to make? ? What is preventing you from making a CHOICE? What would simplify this CHOICE? ? What would it feel like if you already made the right CHOICE for you? ? What are your values and priorities that influence this CHOICE? ? What can you do today to act on this CHOICE? I would love to hear your answers and comments.

"Blankey" ? as in Security Blankey. OK? All parents know what this is. Sometimes it's an actual "blankey", or it may be a pillow, a doll or some other favorite toy or scrap of material.

The First Step
Today is an anniversary of sorts for me. Three years ago today, I publicly launched Tomorrow's Edge after years of getting ready, talking about how I was someday going to do it, and researching everything but advertising! It was a huge first step in the middle of a bunch of first steps that I had taken up to that point. Naturally, it fell flat on it's face because of my lack of education in the marketing area. So, here I am three years later, better educated, dusted off, boot straps pulled up, repeating that first step. I take a deep breath, psyche myself up, wiggle my toes a bit, bend my knee, lift my foot, and sit back down with another cup of coffee?. Maybe in a minute or so.
