"To truly love yourself is the key to greatness. This love is the belief in yourself after all your failures have been pointed out to you... Practice for this greatness by smiling when no one is looking, laughing when nothing is said, and living as if nothing will stop you. Your dreams may never seem so far away as when they are close at hand."

- Jeffrey Hansler (1957 - )

Fighting frustration and rushing to get ready for an upcoming program, handling emails, returning phone calls, getting dinner ready for the kids, and keeping commitments made to others, I came across a fortune in my desk from a meal at a Chinese restaurant long ago. It said, 'Good Luck bestows upon you. You will get what your heart desires.' It prompted me to think, 'I'd better refocus on what my heart desires.'

Wishing you greatness.

Sincerely,
