Growing.
Learning.
Changing.
Going for it.
Moving forward keeps you happy. And, conversely, stagnation is dying.
Live life to its fullest. Search for what you want to learn, become.
Look around you and notice friends, colleagues, others who seem really happy, probably really active, busy. Ask them what they are learning. Ask them what drives them. Ask.
Choose something to read, to learn about, to work toward.
Ask your husband or wife to do it with you.
Maybe get Norman Vincent Peale’s book, “The Power of Positive Thinking”. Good place to start.
Read it aloud to each other. You’ll be amazed at the results.
And you’ll be growing, learning, changing!
Joy awaits!
