What interesting times we're living in! Never before have we had so much, and never before have we had so much to lose.
Today's financial news is stressful, to say the least. I know I'm not the only one who has been rethinking my priorities.
For example, I will never again spend a crazy amount of money on a house or a vehicle. I now know that both can lose half their value almost overnight.
Never again will I miss my son's football game for a chance to "catch up on some paperwork."
Never again will I judge my acquaintances by who they know or what they have.
Never again will I believe that I can't make a difference, because I am only one person. I am one person, and I am making a difference.
Never again will I believe that I don't have time to sit down at the dinner table with my family each night.
Never again will I believe my happiness is tied to what I have in my bank account.
And never again will I make my friends and loved ones feel as if they are somehow secondary in my life, behind work, and behind my own selfish interests.
I wish you all a wonderful week ahead, and I encourage you to explore what your own priorities truly are. Even though times are tough, it's never too late to turn hardships into something positive!
