PEBBLE ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Guard well your spare moments. They are like uncut diamonds. Discard them
and their value will never be known. Improve them and they will become the
brightest gems in a useful life.

BOULDER ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Life, like art, is a work in progress.
The fun is in the process.
Don't always be in a hurry to do things.
Sometimes, it's better to just sit and enjoy a beautiful scene than to
paint it.
Your body is just your Earth suit.
It's not who you are.
That's inside.
Don't worry about what other people thing of you.
Do something because you like it, not because you think you should do it.
Don't try to run other people or things.
They'll end up running you.

Time Management. Popular Topic! This week I spend some time with credit
union managers from around the country to explore effective ways to manage
time.

Participants usually expect to learn some secret that will unlock a hidden
storage vault of efficiency along with extra hours to do it ALL! Here is
the secret: THERE IS NO VAULT! The key to effective time management is
facing that you have 1,440 minutes every day and you have some CHOICES to
make about how you are going to spend them.

I dare you to spend a few minutes today thinking about your priorities and
if you are spending enough time on the IMPORTANT stuff.

Enjoy today!
