This morning I woke up with lots of anxiety. I felt so hopeless and lost, as if I was the only person in the world with no talents or skills. I didn't even want to go to work, but somehow I managed to motivate myself to just go because 99 percent success is just showing up.
When I took my break this afternoon at work I sat at the piano and quietly played some classical and contemporary music.One of my co-workers heard me as she walked by and yelled out "I'm impressed, keep playing and don't shy away." She came over to the electronic piano and put the volume up so that I could be heard. I was a bit embarrassed but to my surprise others gathered near the piano and listened to me and encouraged me to keep playing.
Sometimes when we're in the dumps and feel worthless all it takes is one person to make a difference. I'm forever grateful to "BIZ" my co-worker who also plays the piano for giving me some recognition this afternoon in front of other people especially since I started the day feeling so discouraged with myself.
It's true, 99% of success is just showing up because you never know what's waiting for you. So just show up!

Tomorrow is another Day!
Every morning if we're lucky we wake up to another day.
Some days might be wonderful, others not so much, and
some might be down right miserable.
Life with it's rollercoaster ride gives us seconds, minutes, hours, days, week, months, to try to do the best and be the best we can despite the obstacles and challenges. Some of us have more opportunities than others, more successes than others, better health than others BUT there's usually something to be grateful for.
Whatever your dreams or desires, whatever your goals, whatever you yearn for or which to accomplish, may 2020 bring you the best
things that life has to offer!
HAPPY 2020!
This year try to keep a journal and write a paragraph or two about
the day you had or wish to have. Everyday write down something
that you are thankful for; seeing the sun rise in the morning, being able
to quench your thirst with pure water, having the gifts of sight, hearing,
feeling, touching, tasting.....and remember there's always something to be
thankful for whether your day is bright or not.
TOMORROW IS ANOTHER DAY!
