Where is happiness?
Happiness is not in your memory or your imagination. Happiness is not in the past or future. Happiness is only in the present. Be present to where you are, what you are doing and who you are with. It is here.
The Major Enemy to Success
Fear and doubt are the major enemies to success. Because they come from within, we see them as valid. We stop ourselves. Face your fear, over and over again - and it will fade away and come back as confidence.
Challenges we choose
We all have challenges. Some we have to face. But it's the ones we choose to face; the ones we could elect to ignore but don't, that leave our hearts and minds celebrating the most when we have tackled them. What challenges have you chosen?
Be the architect of tomorrow
What world do you want to live in? What are you doing to make that world a reality?
Rock what you've got
Most of us don't look like models and have perfect bodies. But that's ok, because being attractive and feeling good about yourself is an attitude. Take care of yourself, and rock what you got!
We like our illusions
There are some ideas we'd rather go on believing and promoting, than to see the truth. The world is more violent than ever, poverty is a growing problem, the neighbors are really bad people, people from X country are dangerous, I am a victim, this is going to be very…
Personal victories
You didn't eat the cake. You ran around the block this evening. You spoke up. You cleaned the garage. You made a public presentation. Personal leadership victories come before public ones.
Are you externally or internally driven?
When we do things because others expect us to, it's what we are supposed to do, we want to look good to others, or we want to have things, it may leave us feeling empty in the end. But when we do things that we are internally motivated, driven or…
You're the CEO
A life is a precious thing. You can do so much with it, or not. You're the CEO, the leader, of your life. How are you doing with that job?
Accomplish something
The satisfaction of a goal, leads to the desire to go after more goals. We can help others this way too. Get a win, no matter how small, and you'll have the desire to keep going.

Happiness can be fleeting. I prefer serenity.
I once had my mentor tell me that Happiness is not something you should search for nor do you necessarily deserve it but it is simply a by product of doing the next right thing and being of service to your fellow man. That has served me well over the years!
Hi Larry- I look forward to your inspirational emails daily. Thank you! I own Ice Cream Emergency here in Oxford (we are a mobile ice cream parlor bus). I received an email from Jennifer Collings this morning regarding an event tomorrow at your facility. Unfortunately, as I told her when I called her back a little while ago, that we are already booked for an event at the same time in Plainville. So sorry not to be available. The call got me to thinking that I read your blog regarding the construction of the playground and thought it was awesome. Please let us know if you need help for the next good deed. My husband is an architectural designer and can perhaps assist with construction plans and I can scoop free ice cream for the volunteers as a thank you to them. Best wishes!
