Every day we learn something new about ourselves and the world we live in. It is how we respond and react that really plays the part in who we are. I know I am far from that little girl you see below and instead of waking up years later and thinking “wow I have changed!” I wanted to make in effort to be aware of who I am becoming.
I started a twitter experiment. Life Lesson #. Each morning, right when I woke up, I thought about my entire day yesterday and what was the greatest thing I learned. It could be silly, it could be profound but by taking those minutes to really invest it, I was allowing the life lesson to have a greater hold on who I am. Allow it to really sink in instead of pass me by.
My journey to date: (in reverse order)
Life Lesson #090911: Cheating on Boxed In is more fulfilling than sitting there stumped. Sometimes cheaters do make winners.
Life Lesson #090912: Talk Soup is the cure for the common cold. That and Bill Rancic.
Life Lesson #090913: It is not until you are content with yourself that you will find true happiness.
Life Lesson #090914: Never understimate the power of a sneeze.
Life Lesson #090915: Ignorance is bliss. Unless when sneaking you find something you like…that ain’t bad either!
Life Lesson #090916: There is a good & a bad side to every situation it’s how you respond to it that counts.
Life Lesson #090917: Forgiveness & trust are not rights but privileges. Ones we should spend our energy being worthy of.
Life Lesson #090918: Look less, see more.
Life Lesson #090919: Laugh often an earnestly. http://bit.ly/pkanI
Life Lesson #090920: Always find a positive spin. Sunday isn’t the end of a weekend but a fresh start to a new week.
Life Lesson #090921: It is best to work with kindness & grace. You never know when the tables will turn and who may return in your future.
Life Lesson #091016: If you are constantly looking for the better offer you will miss the beauty of life that is happening right now.
As you can see, I took a 3 week break from my experiment and now I’m deciding between continuing it or finding a new twitter schtick. My thoughts are leaning towards “I’m determined” and instead of it being life lessons, but life goals. Those to can range from silly to profound. I will keep you posted.
