Time to Kick Back and Chill

"Each person deserves a day in which no problems are confronted, no solutions searched for. 
Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us."
Maya Angelou

It's Sunday morning, and if you've tuned in to read something about marketing and business, you've got a better chance of winning the lottery! This is my day to have the fun of a brain dump with whatever's on my mind.

Writing this morning has been a challenge. I usually start the morning knowing exactly what I want to write about. But this morning, the pipeline was empty - no ideas to share, not even a rant. After half an hour of procrastinating and scrolling through cyberspace, I realized that was precisely the point - I was simply just content.

Every day doesn't have to have a formal "to-do" list. I went scrolling for a good quote, and Maya Angelou's statement above says it all. We don't have to slay a dragon every day! Most of us don't allow ourselves time to relax and recharge. We're all sick of the line, but it's true - we don't stop to smell the roses.

So, I'm wishing you the same kind of day I'm shooting for myself...Wishing you the time today to simply not worry about much of anything. Make it a day when you can take the time to look around you and cherish your family, friends, pets - everyone who makes you smile. Slow things down and follow Maya Angelou's advice - "withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us."

​Happy Sunday...or Monday on the other side of the world.
