how you react impacts the final outcome

“It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.”
- Epictetus
We got to test our ability to choose how we react to inconvenient circumstances this morning; I’ll share more in tomorrow’s Note because I want to see how the remainder of our travels go today. Let’s just say we SHOULD be halfway to Jamaica as I write this, but we’re still at the Baltimore airport. We get to leave in a couple of hours and will have a little less time on the beach today, but we’ll still be there for our trip and we’re all together. Our reaction impacted our outcome—things could have continued to work against us if we chose to react differently. You can’t control everything that happens to you–but you can always control how you react. Sometimes, your reaction may not be positive, and that’s ok because you can always change your reaction and find a positive perspective that will help turn things around and in your favor quicker. I’ll share the details of today’s travels, including my initial stress-filled reaction, which was a little out of character in tomorrow’s Note. JC |

In addition to sharing a video that I see the Authentic Life in,...
"The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts". - Marcus Aurelius See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
The Authentic Life is the life you were created to live. Not the life you were told to live. Not the life designed from other people's expectations, cultural definitions of success, or the quiet pressure of what everyone else is doing. It was placed in you by the Divine–unique to you, complete within you, and waiting to be discovered. You were born with unique gifts and talents, passions, character traits, and even weaknesses that no one else possesses in quite the same combination. When you...
