Don't Live the Same Day Twice

​by Skip Cohen

It's Sunday morning, and if you've followed me for even the shortest time, you already know I'm about to jump the tracks from anything related to business! This is when I just let my fingers, heart and mind wander over the keyboard until something triggers a topic.

This morning, I was looking through past purchases from Adobe Stock, and the one above hit me hard. A few recent challenges have left me living the same day twice and then some. And while I realize it's time to break the cycle, it's easier said than done. So, I went off searching for "life is too short" quotes, and Dr. Seuss came through!

Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets.
So, love the people who treat you right, forgive the ones who don't
and believe that everything happens for a reason.
If you get a chance take it. If it changes your life, let it.
Nobody said it would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
Dr. Seuss

​There's nothing more I want to add to this little gem except...

​Take the time to let those you love the most know their importance to you. Put all your regrets in a shoebox and kick it under the bed - let them live with the dust bunnies! Most important of all - everything does happen for a reason, which isn't always obvious. Accept the challenges and savor the changes in your life that make each day unique, and if the same day seems to repeat itself, then it's time to put up a detour sign and take a new route.

Wishing everybody a perfect day ahead, jam-packed with smiles that give you that stupid Alfred E. Neuman "What, me worry?" look. Life is simply too short for anything else.

Happy Sunday...or Monday if you're on the other side of the world.
