Greetings!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Gratitude is a fabulous in-body experience that pulls me right to the center of why I'm doing whatever I'm doing. Why pulls to Purpose, which pulls to Meaning, which pulls to Understanding and Satisfaction. And it all starts with Thanks!

Stop right now. No, don't wait. Right now. What are you Grateful for? Feel it. Touch it. Play with it. Honor it.

And now. Now what do you notice inside yourself? What wants to grow from this gratitude? This sprout is an honorable thing. Love it up.
Money + Currencies + You = It all Counts!
hash marks Whenever we interact with another person, whether in a conversation or through packaging, we are swapping energy, exchanging layers of currencies. Money is only one of those currencies.

Counting is a great practice for tracking your success. When we only count  money, we miss out on noticing the fullness of our experience and on entrepreneurial opportunities.

Ask yourself this morning:
  • What do I want to contribute today?
  • What do I want to open up to receive today?
  • Who do I want to play with?
Maybe your answers will re-arrange your priorities for the day.

Now count your results through the day. If you said you want to contribute laughter, count the laughs you give. If you want receive more customers, count all the potential customers you interact with today.

At the end of the day, count your blessings: what you gave, what you received and who you got to play with.

Tomorrow you can decide if and how you want to exchange any of those currencies.

This is an example of what I call a personal experiment with money. Tell me about your experiments and findings.
