It’s a numbers game.
And you get what you give, not what you take.
Gradually then suddenly.
The reason we gawk at mountains, get lost in the stars, and are taken away by the crashing of ocean waves is because they read us…they reflect something that is true deep in our core…they encourage us to come and climb, to shine, and to sail.
The richness that I’ve been able to claim in this world is the divine allurement of life, family, and business. They’re my mountains, galaxies, and oceans.
They carry a tone of exploration. They have a theme of discovery. They are a bouquet of beauty.
What do you feel on the inside looking while looking at the outside of mountains?

Now ask these same questions looking at your life, family, and business.
Climb.
Shine.
Sail.
Breathe.
Repeat.
Buying happiness is an oxymoron.
We don’t live on bread alone.
What are you stocking up on?
