I’m back from vacation — well, not really a vacation, but a family reunion and then a day or two of down time. Being away from work can be a very positive and renewing experience. The first day or so I feel as though I am missing out on everything and want to make sure my email and cell phone are handy. But then as I relax into the “real world” I realize that work will still be there when I return — and I will be more capable of meeting my business needs because I have taken time to renew myself.

I recall several years ago when I went to a spa in California for a few days. I had been “stressed out” and overwhelmed with work demands. But after a few days of yoga, meditation, walks in the hills and several massages — I felt completely recentered and rejuvenated. I was able to see my life for what it was, and set personal goals to create the life I wanted. It was a turning point in my life. I would suggest if you feel you cannot leave work because there is too much to do and too little time — take a break, give yourself time to relax and you will come back more energized and be able to work more efficiently — plus the quality of your life will be better and you will find more personal peace and happiness.

For those of you who love Eric Dowdle art — his paintings are on sale at a website called Canvas Wrapped. You can get a really nice gallery wrapped print for only about $150. I love his Noah’s Ark Painting. There are also tons of Americana prints, prints of individual cities such as New York, Boston, and Washington D.C. These are great deals and I thought I’d pass them along.

Seventeen Magazine and MySpace.com are sponsoring a contest for 15-30 second videos which will encourage social activism. These ads will be public service announcements and the winner will be featured in Seventeen magazine. The hope is to spotlight awareness to public issues.

Well, over the weekend I attended the Stadium of Fire Celebration. I was able to get some backstage passes to meet Taylor Hicks. My niece is his biggest fan, so I surprised her with front row seats and going backstage. That was my favorite part — to see her face when he put his arm around her, gave her an autograph and had photos taken with her. It was a very memorable experience for me — and gave me a tremendous amount of joy to make a dream come true for her.

I was grateful she had her camera and took tons of pictures — so I can scrapbook about the event. It’s an occasion I don’t want to forget and pictures always seem to bring back the memories much more easily than words.

If any of you were able to attend the Stadium of Fire — it was one of my favorite celebrations ever. I loved it! It was the first year I was up front — so that probably made it more interactive for me — but if you ever have a chance to attend — definitely go!

During the past few years I have studied extensively the power of positive thinking. I believe that what we focus on is what we experience. If we are hiking and the sun is beating down on us, we are thirsty, and tired — what are we generally thinking about? It’s that we are hot, thirsty and tired — right?

But what if we have been locked in a cage for years and this is the first time we are outside in the sun? Do you think our focus could be different? What if this is the first time we’ve been able to see? Would we be thinking about being hot — or feeling thrilled and excited just looking at the blue sky, the trees, and little flowers along the path?

It all comes down to perspective and what we focus our energies on. Are we present in the moment — enjoying what IS — or are we thinking about the hundred things we need or should be doing?

I believe positive thinking is important, but not just “thinking” — we need to FEEL and IMAGINE what we want. It’s also important to use positive words in our conversation. I’ve felt the difference in my own life when I have used words which build versus words that criticize — it changes the energy not only in my conversation but also in my own body.

“No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars, or sailed to an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit.” — Helen Keller

I love the attitude Helen Keller presented in her life. She focused her energies on discovery and learning — and look at the life she led. She is an inspiration to me and I hope to keep getting better and better at focusing on the positive in life and enjoying “what is”.
