Path…
Finding and/or creating your path is hugely important. A path is the direction and destination of a life. It is how you make your mark. It is where you invest your personal energy. And if you don’t, it is what takes your personal energy away from you.
The way I see it is that what you do today is going to move you into tomorrow. The choice each person has to make is whether they adopt the ‘one day at a time’ approach or the ‘full planning’ agenda. There are benefits to both, and perhaps it is safest and wisest to imagine a continuum that we are plotted somewhere upon.
A touch of spontanaiety and a touch of planning. This empowers the ‘free spirit’ that resides within to meet the ‘promethean’ task master that is often associated with the ‘ego’. When teamed, these two forces of energy have a synergistic effect that may very likely result in success and satisfaction and meaning while in the process of ‘making our mark’ in the world.

Personal Mission Statement
Business and corporations typically put together a mission statement that identifies who they are, what they do, and how it will be of service to their clientele. When kept simple, and if truly expressive of who they are and where they want to go, these mission statements can become an integral part of an overall campaign of promotion.
I have been working with individuals in the creation of personal mission statements. In so many cases people do not think about who they are, where they have been where they are now, and where they want to go. Our work creates some clarity relative to this, and offers empowerment to move ‘effectively’ into the future. Proactively rather than reactively.
A good mission statement will be brief, and offer who you are and what it is you want to accomplish. It can be referenced daily so that one may assess whether todays’ actions are in alignment with purpose and intention for tomorrow.
What you do today is what moves you into what you will be tomorrow, goes the working mantra.
