A Good Plan

.

.

Have a good day,

unless you've

made other plans.

"Efforts and Courage

are not enough without

Purpose and Direction."

~ John F. Kennedy

You know well about the best laid plans

of mice and men, however, without a thought

nothing ever happens.

Some people are morning thinkers, others think they know better after dark.

Some people plan weeks in advance, others plan a minute before the action begins.

Actions and Attitudes, you need a plan for both.

Go to work, with a good Attitude.

Go to school, with a good Attitude.

Do the household chores, with a good Attitude.

Run the shopping errands, with a good Attitude.

Meet with friends and family, with a good Attitude.

Smile when you answer the telephone,


the person on the other end can hear your Attitude.

At the end of the day you may have not done all that you had planned,

but if you kept to your plan of doing whatever you did with a good Attitude,

you will have had a good day.

You should have a basic plan that works for you, a plan that makes every day

start out well and end well.

A good way to start your day is to make a gratitude list. Try to get your attitude

on the good feelings side of your emotional barometer before you plan anything else.

To enhance your plan for today try to find the time to help one other person.

Remember, you cannot give what you do not have.

Have a good attitude, a good plan and share with others who may need your guidance.

There is more than enough bad advice and bad attitudes in the world already,

no need for you to add to the pile.

You may not be able to change the world, but you can change you.

Live in the now, but plan as though your Higher Power has more for you to do.

Doing the will of a loving God knowing that being of service to self,

others and your Higher Power is always the best plan.

"The purpose of life is the expansion of happiness."   ~ Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

An attitude of happiness is a good plan.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

Vulnerable

Mean

people

prey

on the

vulnerable

and the

weak.

Stay away from mean people.

We are vulnerable because we trust too much.

We become vulnerable when we are distraught because

of a crisis or we are grieving over the loss of a loved one.

When a person becomes old and tired they become vulnerable.

Children who have yet to learn about mean people

are the most vulnerable.

We are all emotionally vulnerable at some time in our lives.

Some people are more vulnerable, more often, than others.

We want to be loved, we want to be helped, but do not be needy.

Opening yourself to vulnerability because you are greedy

does not fall under today's topic.

"It is my view that our society can be no more stable
than the foundation of individual family units upon which it rests.
Our government, our institutions, our schools...
indeed, our way of life are dependent on healthy marriages
and loyalty to the vulnerable little children around our feet."
Dr. James C. Dobson

Balance trust with caution.

Have a friend, be a friend.

When you see a friend falling head over heels in love with their

newest addictive habit, warn them nicely.

When a friend warns you that your opening your feelings

up to a world of hurt, listen to them.

Don't ever crawl into a shell to hide or to stuff your feelings.

Let your feelings flow and allow yourself to enjoy life.

We allow ourselves to become vulnerable

when we stumble through life without purpose, without focus,

with only a weak desire just to survive.

We learn from experience not to stumble.

"I do not believe that sheer suffering teaches.
If suffering alone taught, all the world would be wise,
since everyone suffers.
To suffering must be added mourning,
understanding, patience, love, openness
and the willingness to remain vulnerable."
Anne Morrow Lindbergh


Experience life today to its fullest and learn from

both the good and the bad.

Ask your Bridge Club partner and they will gladly tell you

about the positive side to being vulnerable.

Tennis is not the only game that has love.

Golf teaches frustration and something else??

Today, look for the positive side of your game;

love well.

laugh loudly,

care intensely and passionately,

and do the will of your Higher Power.

Share your trust so that you and your friends are less vulnerable.

Do not be a mean person.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.
