SUCCESSFUL FAILING
I have a new book coming out called The Secrets of Successful Failing. It's a paradoxical title because I really believe that everything that happens is meant to teach us, even our failures. Some people get confused and think that I mean that I believe that you should be able to turn any failure into a success. But that is not my point. My point is that even the most devastating things that happen to you do so because they are capable of teaching you something. It's really about trusting that everything that happens does so in support of your growth. Even if that event is unpleasant or feels awful. There is something of value in it. Can you see it? Have you ever looked for it that way? Try it for yourself and see if a new perspective gives you any freedom. It has worked for me.

SHOWING UP
There are very few times in your life when you really get to show up for the people that mean the most for you. When I say "show up", I mean you get to "be there" for them and show them how much you care. The benefits of showing up are enormous. The person that you care about gets the support they need and you get to experience the sheer joy of giving love and support. It's the original win-win. I challenge you to see who you could show up for, RIGHT NOW, in your life and then just do it.

PRESENCE
This week I have been privileged to be "knocked into" the present moment. I had all these plans. You know what I mean. I have stuff to do. Do do do! It was all very precise. Things had to get done. Then, I got one phone call that changed all of that urgency. One of my friends had experienced a death in her family. A tragic death. I needed to be there. Suddenly, all of that stuff wasn't really that urgent. I dropped it all to be with her. There was a moment when she needed me and (thankfully) I was there. That's it. One moment to be present with the grief of another person. Then it was over. And I got back to my "stuff". I still had stuff to do. Then, I got another call. Another death. Another good friend. This cannot be a coincidence. Something is trying to get my attention. I will heed this call. I am on my way to be with my friend to be there with her. Perhaps my "stuff" isn't all that important after all!
