Question every Assumption.

Wake up! Do not allow yourself to be complacent! We are the most dangerous when we believe that we have the answers. Be courageous in exploring the unknown and relish the discomfort of a provocative thought. Allow yourself to be challenged and to question every assumption. Surrender the desire to be "right" and engage those who disagree with you for deep understanding. Be a master in desire and a student in all things. Wisdom is not a friend of the weary. Be mindful of the opportunities that cross your path on a daily basis. Be willing to go a little deeper.

Think of the person that most often gets "under your skin."  Consider that wisdom that individual holds for you. What can you learn from him/her? What is underneath the negative emotion? Does this person's behavior mirror something in yourself that you have rejected? How can your experience with this person enrich your life today?

Success or sabotage?  Be willing to challenge your personal paradigm to increase your growth.

Is this going to be an incredible day?  What do you THINK?
