Today is Tuesday, February 29, 2012...LEAP DAY! How exciting. I really never thougth about how special this day is, until today of course. I began to think about how rare this day is, only repeating itself once every four years...here today, and then gone for 1,460 more! I began thinking that if the average person lives until age 80, he/she will only experience twenty February 29th! WOW...that is crazy! From there my mind wandered into thinking about where I am in my life, and am I living each day to its fullest. Am I living my passion? What am I learning? Am I growing? What are my goals professionally and personally? Am I making a difference? What is my worth? What is my potential? Do I know what really makes me tick? Fortunately for me, while I may not have the answers to all of the above questions, I have thought about all of the above questions. But what about the people who have not ever taken a look at the list of questions above? What about the people who just go through life merely existing, and not TRULY LIVING? While I cannot judge or change others, I can reflect on myself. How many things am I putting off on a daily basis that I can complete today, (right off the top of my head, I can think of 3 art projects that are sitting on my dining room table!). Why am I procrastinating, after all, I really don't know how many more tomorrow's I have! So, while this Leap Day may just seem like another day in the world, it has really hit home for me. I feel really blessed to have an extra day of my life, and I wish the same for you!
Today's activity: LEAP
Today I encourage you to LEAP into an adventure, or project that you have been procrastinating about. Perhaps this adventure is life! Maybe you feel like your are living on the outskirts, but not really diving into the adventure heard first! What are you waiting for? Tomorrow, or the day after? Is anything really going to change? Probably not! Today I encourage you to put aside self doubt and fear. Trust in yourself, truly believe. Today I encourage you to...LEAP, the net will be there to catch you if you fall! xo
