If I had my Life to Live Over...

If I had my life to live over, I would have talked less and listened more.

I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained and the sofa faded.

I would have eaten the popcorn in the ‘good’ living room and worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace.

You can always choose to be happy

I want to tell you about choices. Not the choices that we make and the consequences of them. But the choices we should be making. And most of all we should be teaching our kids about.

How often do you say to yourself and/or your kids. »I can’t afford it.« »If only we had more money.« »I don’t have time.«

But do you really need a lot of money and time to feel good and enjoy life? No. If I asked you when were you most happy, what would you say? When you had lots of money or would you remembered fun times with your friends or quite evenings with a good book. You know that being happy and satisfied has nothing to do with the money.

It’s all about the attitude. The only thing you really need is an idea of what you want and some effort to follow the idea.

Are you living in the past or the future?

Of course, you would say »No.« And of course, I know that you can only live now in this present moment. But are your thoughts in the now? Or are you spending days dreaming (or fearing) about the future or complaining about the past? If so, you are not living in the present and you are not enjoying your time here and now. Your mind is turned to the past or future.

Let me first tell you two stories.
