Well deserved! And second, re: "things out of our control..." YES! I recently finished The War of Art, and this is a subject I've been thinking about and incorporating into my work-related thinking quite a bit of late, and reading that today just reinforced it and, I don't know if it's the extra bold roast I'm drinking, or that paragraph, but I'm leaning toward the paragraph ;), I just got a rush of adrenaline and a really good feeling of well being from that. Thank you! Excellent post Cathy. Looking at things from a different perspective, be it work, art, life, can be a real game changer and extremely freeing.

I always tell my kids they can't change anything except their own reaction to something. Congrats on your well-deserved award - to me, you are always #1!

Sometimes I think I'd like to BE a teacher, since mine had such a lasting impact on me.....maybe in my next reinvention. You deserve to have a fantastic 2015, Cathy, my friend! xoxo

I'm always telling my daughter to do that too because she can get so self-focused at times. She loves it when I remind her. I had a college professor that moved me to tears when he spoke...I will never forget him. Thanks for helping me to remember those moments.

Good deeds and good thoughts - that's what is important in life.

It takes a little time to do but the changes it can make are worth the effort!

You would have adored him! He let us vote on the books we wanted to read, and there were some genres (like science fiction) I wasn't interested in but after reading them I loved each one!

I still have my high school copy of "Manchild in the Promised Land", "Travels with Charley" (one of my all-time faves) and "Siddhartha."
