I just went back and read the original post. This so very helpful to me – thank you once again!
Thank you for stopping in Julie! 🙂
10,000 hours is too short for me, because there is a lot of things that we can do for everything. First thing to do is travel around the world 🙂
What a interesting post. It really does make you think doesn’t it. I spend a good amount of time just pondering that thought, time really is of the essence isn’t it.
Its hard sometime the hours goes so fast especially sipping hot chocolate & coffee. It is about the choice we make in life. Like your article concept . Thanks for sharing.
awww.. it’s true, you shouldn’t be in a bowl if you were meant for the ocean..
Settling just leads to everyone getting hurt later down the line. And that’s worse for everyone involved. We’ve all done it though, or at least most of us have…
Lately I find it harder and harder to find the time for my friends… I must make more effort
It’s difficult to be at the middle. For me, it makes a person somebody without resolve & standpoint. I find that dangerous because it tells me that if someone is like that, I can’t give my trust to that person. There’s power and freedom in making choices.
True… however, there are time when the middle road is best.
Ha-ha. I also have that topic whenever my friends and I are hanging around. Perhaps, it is more of appreciating life and its wonders.
I love Nelson Mandela’s quote. It is so true and very inspiring indeed. It does so make you think about how you are living your life. Thanks for sharing.
When I was younger I worked a lot of promotions and one was for green mountain coffee! Great company & great products!
Time flies, that’s for sure. I find contentment with my family especially with my kids and husband.
I agree, the choice is OURS to make. And we had to make a conscious effort to make a good one. 🙂
very nice topic, choices how do we really make a good choices for ourselves and for our family… we do have tough choices to make and some risky choice in order to live our life the way we want it to be.
I look not on how lavish others lives are. All I am after is every second of my life is spend wisely with my family.
Some would call it the “american dream”. I am happy with my simple life.
Hahaha! Yep, the American dream can easily become a nightmare if we don’t take moments to simplify.
When you’re having fun time especially chatting to a friend, time is unlimited.
It is amazing how quickly time flies especially after high school. I remember school taking forever some days and now I wish time would slow down. 🙂
Eliz, those same questions run through my mind everyday. I thought I was the only one. When I try to speak to anyone about it, they just roll their eyes. Too deep of a topic for most people to chat about.
Exactly… even as I reply to you. Some are rolling their eyes. Hahaha! 🙂
Life is all about choices. If you take away people’s ability to choose, then you essentially make them slaves. There should be choices in everything that we do.
Choices are a powerful thing. Making choices can change your life forever, and hopefully for the better!
