Satisfying Saturday


Ask yourself, “What can I do today that I can look back on years from now and feel real satisfaction that I helped someone else?  You may need to write or type a short list of ideas. If one that looks manageable in the time you have today, why not go ahead? 

If all your ideas look impossible, instead of making a NEGATIVE PREDICTION, try listing the individual things that need to be done to make your idea for helping someone else become a reality. Break them into smaller and smaller actions until they only take 5 or 10 minutes  each.  Now, do the first one! Tomorrow you can do the second one, and so on each day.  This is how the continuous dripping of a substance as insubstantial as water will wear down the hardest rock. As the great Bruce Lee said “Be like water my friend,” and achieve real satisfaction.
