HOW DO YOU STAY WHEN THE BAR KEEPS MOVING? Has anyone read the book, “Who Moved My Cheese?” by Dr. Spencer Johnson? It is a profoundly simple narrative about the reality of change in life, and the inevitable, often elusive, search for happiness and satisfaction in life. If you haven’t read it, check it out through Audible if you are an onthe-go reader, or grab a copy and cuddle up with a steamy cup and comfy blanket (well maybe not the blanket in summer, but you get the drift). If you have made it through any real “phase” of life, you know satisfaction and happiness are not something you can chase. There are certain things we can, and should, do to create space in our lives for success and passion. However, we need to realize that circumstance, situation, and possessions do not define us or CREATE happiness in us. They are fleeting; mark my words - someday your cheese is going to shift (again, refer to “Who Moved My Cheese”). So what steps can we take to stay focused in spite of a bar that is constantly in motion? The bars of finance, business, relationship, education, politics, etc. are either moving up or over; they are rarely stationary. How can you manifest peace and genuine forward motion in spite of this?
