Why Not?

Hey Gang! Just back from a 24 hr plane trip to see my favorite football team, Nationally Ranked, University of Charleston increase it's record to 6-0, WTG EAGLES! So I'm running on about 4 hours sleep and I hope this makes sense!

I get a lot of e-mails from readers with comments, thanks, and suggestions. Keep them coming! I love the input! But...I've got to say, everyone of them are worth sharing! Please feel free to use the comment section of the blog. Everyone here has so much to share and it's all positive!

On that note I recently got an email from a friend and reader who decided to "question boldly" her doctor's diagnosis. She found after living for decades with an ailment she was able to have day surgery and drastically alter her lifestyle! It's a great example of how you can empower yourself and make changes. Never accept the status quo! Don't be afraid to ask, Why not? Or, Why not me? That's how great things happen! Looking back, you'll find greatness has always been just the other side of adversity. Think about that for a second. Can you think of anybody who achieved greatness without a struggle?

With that in mind, let's ponder the daily struggles we face. Are they opportunities for greatness? Do we treat them as such? Re framing our challenges as opportunities changes our focus. The negative become a positive. We could all use some additional positive in our lives! And remember.........

'If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under.' - Ronald Reagan
