Three Things to Catch Your Attention in 2014

Three Things to Catch Your Attention in 2014 In 2014… I’d like you to think about Humility, Serendipity, and Giving Back, To me each of these three are related and inter-dependent upon one another. Humility I have been humbled many times in this past year by so many things. Incredible acts of kindness, people that have gone out of their way to make a difference. This relates directly to the third point of giving back and that’s for a reason. Humble people don’t need to prove themselves to be superior to others. They are comfortable in their own skin and are willing to share what they know. The sufficiency of my merit is to know that my merit is not sufficient. ~ St. Augustine Serendipity No matter what someone says… things happen for a reason. Call it whatever you want, but be aware that there are times when serendipity just happens. Enjoy it. Seek it. Revel in it. There’ll always be serendipity involved in discovery. ~ Jeff Bezos, Founder and CEO of Amazon.com Whether it’s in personal relationships or in business there will inevitably be situations where serendipity intervenes. Enjoy it. Seek it. Revel in it. Giving back There are so many ways to give back. It can be as simple as holding a door open for someone or offering a smile. Or it can be as elaborate as you can imagine and deliver. The point is… seek at least one way every single day to give back. Do Something. Do Anything. Just Get Started. If you wait until you can do everything for everybody, instead of something for somebody, you’ll end up not doing nothing for nobody. ~ Malcom Bane There is no wrong way to give back. Just do one thing every day and you’ll see. That’s it — Three things to catch your attention in 2014 It’s pretty easy and fairly obvious. Your success is directly tied to others. By embracing humility, serendipity and giving back, I think you’ll find 2014 to be your best year yet. Enjoy it and Revel in it. Then Share it. You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want. ~ Zig Ziglar
