I will experience Joy at least once a day. I don't care what it costs me.

This is a personal mantra of mine that I've had for many years. I try to live it at least once a day, even if it's just for a fleeting moment. If I can do that, then the day will not have been wasted.

You can do it if you decide to. It takes practice and yes, sometimes it cost you a lot of time and effort, but the older I get, the more grateful I am that I invested the time and energy teaching myself how to do it, even if sometimes it seemed silly and idealistic.

This is one of my favorite emails every day. His book Ignore Everybody is a must read. Check out his blog at www.gapingvoidgallery.com
