A Little Help

“No man is an island unto himself” is something I’m certain most of us have heard. It’s a rather simple message within the quote that we can’t do it all on our own. I know this to be true. I’ve tried it and failed miserably. I’ve run my life with determination that I could do things on my own and when I discovered I was wrong, I asked for help. Some people do not.

Pride, ego, or insanity may be the reason. I’m not sure. What I know is going through life without assistance, without others, living in solitary, is practically impossible. A hermit may disagree, but I haven’t been able to find one and ask them.

The type of assistance you require is what’s important. You and I will need help from others as we strive towards our ends. I choose to seek the assistance of experts. I choose the assistance of those with experience. I choose to only ask from those with the experience and knowledge I desire. When I don’t know what I need, I’ll ask for assistance in determining what knowledge I need and who possesses said knowledge. I would suggest you do the same as “no man is an island unto himself.”

Today, Tuesday, January 3, 2023, I am grateful that:

The new work week is off and running. I don’t really enjoy working, but I do enjoy the benefits. Compensation works for the moment. At a later date it’ll be something else, but for today, this works.

I’m gaining some clarity of Kaizen. Small, incremental improvements over time become significant. I’ll take this approach to business, my personal, spiritual, financial, and physical life. A little better today than yesterday consistently will do wonders.

I can see the finish line. It’s a bit distant, but I can see it. It’s nothing so abstract or obscure I can’t envision it. In fact, I’m more clear on what the finish line looks like today than I’ve ever been.

How can you surround yourself with experts?

Which experts do you require?

How can you meet them?

What can you offer in exchange for their expertise?

Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
