I am streaching to get there

“Wake up! If you knew for certain you had a terminal illness–if you had little time left to live–you would waste precious little of it! Well, I’m telling you…you do have a terminal illness: It’s called birth. You don’t have more than a few years left. No one does! So be happy now, without reason–or you will never be at all.”

~ Dan Millman, 21st century philosopher
from Way of the Peaceful Warrior

The Question Behind The Question®

Friday, September 21st, 2007

The spirit of the QBQ! The Question Behind the Question is personal accountability:

  • No more victim thinking, procrastinating, or blaming.
  • I can only change me.
  • Take action.

You can choose the low road and act like most people or take the road less traveled, the QBQ road:

  1. Begin with “What” or “How,” (not “Why,” “When,” or “Who”).
  2. Contain an “I” (not “they,” “them,” “we,” or “you”).
  3. Focus on action.

Life is (relatively) short. You need to read QBQ! to help ensure you are on the right road.

Easy for you to say

It really is when you are convinced and passionate. Convinced of the path you are traveling. Passionate about life.

When you are saying something daring others may exclaim “that’s easy for you to say!” It is easy because you know if you fail it is not the end. We can only go as far as we have been taught and teaching can (& should) take place continually.

What have you done to make today great?
