I can’t think of a better time for me to read this. I was just laid off my job and after the initial shock and tears I was reminded that like the words of Henry Ford- “If you think you can or can’t, you’re right.” I can act like poor little me or grab the next adventure and see where it leads. I am looking to sell some articles or research work if anyone has suggestions. I enjoy your blog. AND yes it helped. Thanks–pat

Just——————–thank you…for sharing/saying—what is on a large number of 40somethings minds—-can a person move, change, improve, grow with in the long held and ANTIQUATED beliefs that prevent us from enjoying life and the joy that comes from doing what one loves and being compensated for it….WOW…thank you…James in Alaska!

For me, finding value in all things means, the backlot is a great chance for me to gain a little extra exercise during the day. So, I choose the back lot because of its distance from my destination, not because I don’t believe there won’t be a spot for me up front.

Just another way of seeing the same thing from a different perspective.

BTW — I enjoy your writings.

Thanks!

“Attitude is everything” is so true! I have lived most my life(48 years)with low self esteem and have struggled with wanting/attempting to pursue more out of life and striving for goals but feel I’m my own worse enemy. Never having the confidence to even attempt change or a better life. It’s frustrating and has kept me from more satisfaction in life and a career. I read everything I can find on developing confidence and changing my “glass half empty” perception of life. Your articles are encouraging to me and I enjoy reading and getting a new perspective, giving me hope for a new and better future.
