Kool & the Gang Really Have It Right!

As you plan your day or week, I can imagine that you, like many of us, have all sorts of ideas and fragments and snippets floating about you.  And you’re determined to grab as many as possible with your mental fishing nets and toss them into your “To Do” bucket.  What did she ask me to pick up?  Who did I want to see before the end of the day?  What’s that feeling behind me reminding me to do?  Where did I leave that thing?

All those many questions asked, trying to remember things you’ve forgotten, in an effort to “be productive” and “get it done”.  It can be so very dizzying.  At times I’m sure it’s downright frustrating!  And while asking those questions and doing those things may be very necessary, there’s something else you may want to put right in front of you now and answer for yourself:

• What have I forgotten to celebrate?
• If there were something, ANYTHING – the tiniest little thing, I could let myself celebrate, what would that be?
• If I really allowed myself, if I gave myself permission, what could I celebrate now?

Don’t misunderstand what I’m trying to get across here.  I’m not saying that you should make this easy for yourself, set yourself up for success, and really have fun with it.  What I AM asking you to do is the following:

1. Turn up your speakers
2. Click the following link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwEMxYggoKQ
3. Ask yourself the “celebrate” questions from above
4. Capture your answers on paper (afterward you can put it somewhere you’ll see it throughout the day)
5. Do what the guys on YouTube are telling you!

“We’re gonna have a good time tonight!  Let’s cele…”  Sing along!  You know you want to!
