Are you excited?

I stopped by the truck stop this morning and had a cup of coffee with the guys. One asked me about my books and I just sort of started telling him. I noticed how my voice changed, how I became sort of animated and excited.

That is, indeed, the way we tend to become when we are doing something we enjoy. Whether it is a hobby or a friendship or a job, there is a change that comes about us that others see. Sometimes that change is a positive, such as my excitement this morning or, it may be a negative and our entire countenance may become subdued and troubled.

Which are you?

When it comes to your job, do you get excited or subdued?

When it comes to your general outlook on your life, what is your response telling everybody else?

It is interesting to me that there are so many people who seem to feel trapped by life. They are like hamsters in their wheel. They are running and running and getting absolutely nowhere. They run day after day, year after year – running with no excitement, no animation, no eagerness for what comes next.

Again I ask, which outlook do you have when you speak about your life?

We all understand that there are those days that sort of get the best of us. I have them, too. The telling truth is what outlook is the dominant one on your life?

I urge you all to seek something that gives you excitement, that gives you something to be animated about. It can be a hobby, it may be a new job or a new attitude with the current job, or it may be one of a whole host of possibilities.

My heart sort of swells when I talk of my book ideas….I love to share.

Ok, so book five is going to be the best yet! Want me to tell you about it?
