We were born with inherent talents and ambitions. If we ignore them, and try to be someone we aren’t, we will likely find ourselves unhappy.
Mix virtue and best effort with who you already are. I think that’s the recipe for happiness.
What do you think?

Well said. Couldn’t agree more.
I agree Larry. Add in a good dose of steadfastness. You need to stay the course every day. No coasting
“ YES “
Agreed. We all have to hone our natural talents to be our best selves.
Being authentic with yourself and others breeds confidence and builds self esteem… Someone once said, be yourself because everyone is taken! xo
Surrendering yourself to the work you were made to do results in amazing outcomes – so true!
Learning who you are and what you inherently love about this world is not an easy task. It requires good introspection skills, honesty, integrity and courage. But it is the most important process in one’s life – like solving the riddle of your life and then being free to act on the solution. Thanks for the inspiring dose of reason!
So right! Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.”
We must define who we are in business and mesh it with who we are as people. “Start out as you intend to continue”. Be authentic.
This approach has served me well.
BE the best version of YOU, you can be.
Hey Larry,
trust you are well? I believe that often people seek the emotional feeling of happiness and as a result, end up always wanting more to fuel the addiction of the hormone we think is happiness.
instead, happiness should be thought of as a state of mind, acknowledging our past, grateful for what we have today and recognizing of what we can contribute tomorrow.
Meditation teaches us the state, and Reflection applies the principle to our own perspectives

Yes it is so important to stay true to who you are and if you don’t really know then find out so that you can be all you were meant to be which is exactly what you need and those around you need.
Just working with and Understanding strengths and weaknesses of you team members can get the best out of them and keep them happy and productive.
