Repacking Your Bags

"When was the last time you had a real good belly laugh?"

"To put it simply, the formula for the good life is: Living in the Place you belong, with the People you Love, doing the Right Work, on Purpose."

"Ultimately, it comes down to a series of trade-offs. What are you willing to trade in one area of your life to get what you want in another?"

"The more we do, the more responsibilities we have, the heavier our loads tend to be and the more important it is that we ask ourselves why we're carrying what we're carrying."

"Knowledge of what we call doing the right work, together with a strong sense of talents and purpose in life, is an essential part of answering the question, ' What do I want to be when I grow up?'"

"We're inspired by stories of people who seem to have the "perfect job"?whose talents, passions, and values are in alignment and who regularly feel a powerful sense of personal fulfillment. We call this "lifestyle of the rich in purpose." "

"How many of our friends are what we call 'nutritious people'? Nutritious people are the people in our lives who genuinely 'feed' our souls."

"The quest for the good life is a product of daily schedules and nightly dreams but in order to really live it, you need to find a place beyond schedules and outside of dreams, a place where time stands still and you can stand still within it."

"If you know where you want to spend your time on work, love, place, or purpose and can allocate it accordingly, you won't feel so trapped. You'll feel less weighted down by the demands of your schedule and more in control of where you are headed."

"You don't just radically change your life one day and pick things up right where you left off the next. You need to give yourself time to get used to the changes, to adapt, to get comfortable with what's new and different."
