Reminds me of Stanley's book, "The Best Question Ever." Such a simple concept, but something that needs to be drilled into our heads daily! Hope all is well, my friend... Great word to the wise!

This post is great - a true inspiration and reality check for me today. I know that bad things will happen - but how I deal with them is where I need to make that change. You hit it perfectly - I need to learn to "change the circumstances". I no longer want to feel "defeated". So thank you again - I enjoy reading what you have to say. You (and Kelly) actually have inspired me more than you both realize!! Say hi to Kelly for me (and congrats on the new arrival). Take Care - Denise Hull Jon - Good morning.

Oh man… I really am a 2 year old. I find myself always asking the ‘why’ questions, but your post just made me think that maybe I’m asking the wrong ‘whys.’

So what if you did make more money?
What would it really mean for you if you increase the bottom line?
Why put all that work into losing weight or running a marathon?

The spirit of these questions made me consider my motivation. For myself, I’ve found that getting motivated is the hard part, so when I eventually do find impetus, my greatest fear is stifling the energy, thus often overlooking the obvious outcome/effect/repercussion of my action. Asking the right ‘whys’ early on could really help me be sure that I’m on the right track in those rare moments of motivated action.

As painful as it would be, I would love to have you ask me some hard questions specific to my oddball profession.

Thanks, Jon!
