Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone! What Are You Doing Today?

Yum!

The Pilgrims made seven times more graves than huts.  No Americans have been more impoverished than these who, nevertheless, set aside a day of thanksgiving.  ~H.U. Westermayer

When I was choosing a good quote for your Thanksgiving 2013 – I saw a lot of funny ones and meaningful ones, but also dark ones that provoke negative thoughts and all that.

Well, when I came across this Westermayer quote I nearly dismissed it out of hand because it was starting to look like negativity and I won’t share negativity.

But it is quite the opposite of negativity.

Sometimes it’s all about perspective.

How much MORE can we be Thankful now for the nation that we have, the food on our table, the family we have all around us, the relative wealth compared to most of the world, etc etc?

This smacked me right in the face when I realized it!

We have SO much to be thankful for, folks, that we didn’t live in that era when this great nation was being forged through hardship and lives lost!  All for the sake of Religious freedom from tyranny.

Freedom is not free, I’ve heard said about justification of going to war, but that statement is as true as the driving rain, folks.

Today, let’s solemnly bow our heads in Thanksgiving to the God who saw our Fore-Fathers and Fore-Mothers through the most difficult of times so that we could enjoy what we have before us!

And then enjoy it!

“Put on the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness”!  – Isaiah 61:3

What are your plans on this Thanksgiving Day?  You may share them ’til your heart’s content in the comments section below!

In the meantime, do your level best not to cry (happy tears) when you watch this Thanksgiving (early) Homecoming Surprise:

Really though, tears are ok, in fact they’re actually good for you!

TGIF, Am I Right, Folks? Enjoy This Smattering of Humor on Your Special Day!

LOL!

Thank God It’s Friday!  I don’t know about you, but I had a bit of a challenging week myself.

But challenges only strengthen us, don’t they?

I should say the week started off good, though, and Tuesday was pretty ok…

…but Wednesday was quite a challenging Hump Day for me.  What about you?  How was your week?  May share that in the comments section below.

Oh!  Is THAT really what TGIF means?  I had no idea…

And everyone loves a dog, right?  Especially one that’s “smiling” on a Blessed Friday!  😀

 

This YouTube Video sure brought a chuckle and a smile to my face:

What Does Your Dog Do When You Start Vacuuming? (Video)

“The way my dog acts, you’d think his entire family was murdered by a vacuum cleaner.”

My dog, Buffy, would ATTACK the vacuum cleaner while I was vacuuming with vigor and ferocity.  Seems like a bit of an overreaction?  LOL.

Do tell.  What kinds of things does your dog do when you vacuum your carpets?

This singing Husky has gone viral and garnered over 12 million YouTube video views:

Are You Feeling “Broken Down”?

“It’s not the load that breaks you down, it’s the way you carry it.”
― Lou Holtz, Accomplished NCAA Football Coach

Here is a REALLY GREAT Motivational Speech from Lou Holtz at a Notre Dame pep rally:

 

 

Are there ways you can “carry your load”, perhaps smarter, or more efficiently?  There must be methods you can discover that will help you to work smarter, not harder. Challenge yourself on this Tuesday to be innovative with the things in your life that tend to break you down.

Have a GREAT rest of your Tuesday, everyone!

Do NOT Be Afraid to Fail! That is How You SUCCEED! (Video)

“I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” –Michael Jordan

Really, good people! Do not be afraid to fail.  “Experience is the best teacher”, right?

Well, both successes and failures ARE in the category of “experience”.  They are both our best teachers!  I would like to hear your thoughts on this, but would you agree with me or not that failure is more often a BETTER teacher, even, than success?

INSPIRING!  If this great, viral YouTube Video about Michael Jordan doesn’t inspire you…then nothing will!

Also VERY inspiring!  Enjoy (I sure did)!

GREAT Monday Inspiration via Wayne Gretzky to “Slap Shot” Your Week Off Right!

It appears that this particular Monday’s inspirational theme is more of an encouragement to take action, so…be inspired!

A Wayne Gretzky Slap Shot

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. –Wayne Gretzky

Are you taking shots on this Monday?  If not, “kickstart”, or, more appropriately “slap shot” your week off right by doing just that!

What slap shots can you take today?  Because, if you don’t take any…you miss EVERY one of those shots.

Thanks to the greatest hockey player of all time for your inspiring words:  Wayne Gretzky!

Here is a funny commercial, YouTube Video featuring Wayne Gretzky:

Can Amazon “Hold a Candle” to You?

The common question that gets asked in business is, ‘why?’ That’s a good question, but an equally valid question is, ‘why not?’ -Jeffrey Bezos, Owner/Founder of Amazon

I recently learned that Amazon has already cleared $17.09 Billion in the 3rd quarter this year, 2013, an increase of 24% from 2012.

Here is a Viral YouTube Video of Jeff Besos giving Princeton’s Baccalaureate Address to the graduating class of 2010.  Besos graduated from Princeton in 1986 with a degree in Computer Science and Electrical Engineering:

Walmart.com, by stark contrast has projected a paltry $10 Billion by end of FY 2013.

Amazon, for good reason, is now being called the “…Walmart of the post-2000 period”, said Matt Nemer, an analyst at Wells Fargo.

So, be inspired on this Monday morning because Amazon cannot “hold a candle” to you.

How can we say that?  You may ask.  Jeff Besos is “worth billions”!

Because every person is priceless!  YOU are priceless!  You are a person, aren’t you?  😉

So, like in the Jeff Besos quote above, if you feel down on this Monday morning and every time you feel yourself about to ask yourself “why am I trying to build this business”?    Just ask yourself “why NOT build my dreams”?!

Indeed!

Why NOT build your dreams?
