Show Notes

A few days before my 54th anniversary, May 28th, I spoke to my good friend, Joy. I had been down with bronchitis for three weeks. I was challenged to keep up with caregiving and was feeling down, not at all like myself.

At the time, I was reading the book Master Your Mindpower. One exercise was to make a list of 100 things you would like to see happen in your life. I didn't know if that was possible. Caregiving requires a lot of time and emotional and mental energy. I had given up my former life as a speaker and writer to care for my family. I felt like I didn't have any current goals or dreams. What few there were were hazy and far in the future. And I would be older, and then what could I really do? I was also challenged because I am at a place in my life where I am paring down, I don't want more things.

Join me as I share how this exercise changed my days and how it can change yours.
