"Oh, the Places You'll Go"- Thank you Dr Seuss

Who remembers the Dr. Seuss book "Oh, the Places You'll Go"?

Well, when my kids were little I wanted them to become familiar with life as a journey.

Sometimes it's amazing, interesting and exciting. You know exactly where you are going and what to do

" You'll pass the whole gang and you'll soon take the lead. Wherever you fly, you'll be the best of the best. Wherever you go, you will top ...all the rest."

Other times the journey can be more challenging with "bang ups and Hang ups."

The amazing thing is this: We DO eventually figure it out.

This lovely book goes on to say: "Somehow you'll escape all that waiting and staying. You'll find the bright places where the boom bands are playing"......"Ready for anything under the sky. Ready because you're that kind of guy!"

And then it happens again....the dark, hard and trying places. "But on you WILL go....though your arms may get sore and your sneakers may leak."

Will you succeed??????

"YES! You will, indeed!

(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)

KID, YOU'LL MOVE MOUNTAINS!"

Never give up working to be the BEST version of yourself you can be.

Where are you on your journey??

Are you settling or are you striving?

How do you know what you are truly capable of?????

Think about it.
