Two beautiful words: "personal mastery". They have an inspirational vibe to them. They offer the sense of hope. They challenge. They provoke. They affirm (and remind us of our highest possibilities).

To be given the gift of life is to be given an awesome responsibility. Each of us must go out into the world each day and live our best. Yes, life doesn't always seem fair. We'll encounter difficult customers and low performing suppliers and angry commuters. That's just life happening (and each one of them can reveal something to you about yourself). But, at the same time, life offers you daily opportunities to shine. To polish your gifts. To release your chains. For personal mastery. Make a commitment today that will alter the course of your life. Forever. Dedicate yourself to personal mastery. Think about your thinking. Get to know your fears. Refuse to tolerate negativity.

Get to be so good at your craft that your organization cannot run without you. Become the friendliest person you know. Work on happiness. Be nice. Be good.
