Ray Bradbury, said (in "Fahrenheit 451") "Stuff your eyes with wonder, he said, live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It's more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories." What a vivid quote! It reminds me of a conversation I had recently. A friend had dropped his cellphone and cracked the screen. Everything still worked, but the corner of the screen where it landed, was the top right corner. That's where his battery life indicator is located. He never knows how much battery life is left on his phone. He said he needs to be close to a charger later in the day. He said he cuts calls short in the middle of the day and he conserves his energy by scrolling less all day. I was thinking that I might benefit from such a crack on my phone screen!

Anne Frank said "No one has ever become poor by giving." I love this! If you think about the most successful person you can think of, you'll probably think of someone who gives back. I hope so anyway. That is a true sign of success. I recently spoke with billionaire / philanthropist John Paul DeJoria, best known as co-founder of the Paul Mitchell line of hair products and The PatrĂ³n (Tequila) Spirits Company. John Paul DeJoria epitomizes the American dream, he started his first company with a $700 loan while living in his car and grew it into the largest privately held salon hair care company today. He has a new book out called Success Unshared is Failure. I'll be sure to put a link to it at MotivatinMinute.org. I think he sums up today's quote quite well!

Saint Augustine said “Take care of your body as if you were going to live forever; and take care of your soul as if you were going to die tomorrow.” I love this quote. I need to listen to this advice WAY more. I've gotten much better recently, but at one point, about ten years ago, I was over 350 pounds. I never really cared about the number, but the way I felt was not great. I'd get winded doing simple things and I really struggled to go up a flight of stairs without issues. We made a decision back then that we needed to make some changes. I dropped 30 pounds right away, but then I'd lose and gain the same twenty pounds over and over, with every diet you could think of. Each one worked a little, but recently I've gotten out of the three hundreds and I plan to stay here!

Arnold Schwarzenegger said "Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths." Excellent quote! I agree with Arnold! I know, in my personal life, I've never grown at all during the good times. It's always been a time if struggle and hardship that I've found a way to survive and thrive. We tend to think outside of the box when we need to, in order to survive. When things are good, who needs to scrimp and save? But, when times are tough, we pinch pennies and find a way to make it through. My wife and I found a way to make it many years with almost nothing, but we did have God on our side, and I believe that we witnessed miracles during our trying times! Money showed up when it was needed, and that happened over and over!

Vincent Van Gogh said "Great things are done by a series of small things brought together." I love this. My wife and I have been living in the same house since 2022. When we bought it, we knew we were going to do a major remodel. We took out walls, we put in new windows and doors, we changed all of the flooring and pretty much everything else you CAN change. We did this project in phases. The first phase was the biggest, but since then, it has been small projects that take less time and money. Little by little the whole home and yard have been transformed. It was not one big thing, but many little things that add up to make the transformation look amazing! I think this very much feels like the quote from Van Gogh, a series of small things!
