The Space

You have millions of spaces in your mind where you store all of the options that surround you.

There’s a space for hotels.

There’s a space for cars.

There’s a space for shoes.

There’s a space for insurance.

There’s a space for massage therapy.

There’s a space for a spa.

There’s even a space for a spa for your pet.

There’s a space for restaurants and then subspaces for a sushi restaurant, Italian restaurant, Paleo restaurant, etc.

There’s a space for anything that can be dreamed up and everything that is.

Are you what comes to mind when one thinks of that thing that you do, that market you serve, that service you provide, or a specific category of thoughts?

We tend to the think billboards, yellow pages, SEO, pay-per-click, and social media streams as the space where we must be, but we can’t continue to overlook this unseen and underestimated and underutilized space.

Own your space.

Become the expert for the space you should occupy.

The space is tight and the mind tends to not accept two when one will do.

Also, spaces of the mind that have vacancies can spot fake from a mile away. Be you. Be real. Be genuine. Say please. Write thank you. Care.

Mirror Talk

The recipe needs a chef.

The art needs an artist.

The poem needs a poet.

The blog needs a blogger.

The music needs a musician.

Want do you want?

Maybe the bigger question is, have you accepted the label/role/responsibility/obligation/duty that is required to get what you want?

Don’t wait to feel it.

First, be it.

Next, do it.

Eventually, you’ll have it.

Appraised Value

We are all appraisers.

We give a value to our moments.

We give a value to our day.

We give a value to our years.

We give a value to our meanings and metaphors.

We give a value to our words.

We give a value to our actions.

We give a value to our hopes and dreams.

We give a value to our relationships.

We even give a value to our values.

We do this individually.

However, probably the best thing we can do in our appraising is in asking another where and how they’ve obtained their values.

No man is an island and it takes at least two to create harmony.
