Emerson says: “The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.” When I was in my teens, and 20s, I used to believe the lie that had been perpetuated by society.

Stories of working long hours without pay, Firing someone and dumping their workload in their lap, Not letting them go on vacation because there isn’t any backup available, etc. I’m sure I don’t need to tell you these stories – you are probably…
Are you living up to your infinite potential? This is a hard post to write because it reminds me of the time in my life when I was miserable and unfulfilled.
