PERSPECTIVE - with Henry Calix Henry Calix

You were saying? I'm sorry what? You had a plan for 2020? Mike Tyson said, "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face." Everyone has their own story of 2020. One thing is for sure, literally the entire world can say no one expected any of the events of 2020. Regardless of who you are and how 2020 impacted you. One lesson in my perspective we have to learn from this year...

Out of the unlikeliest places and unlikely of things a great outcome may be born. 

"I'll Try my best" - How come it comes across as a negative statement? Is it a pre-excuse to prepare others in case we fail? Is it lack of confidence? Why would it be if the Frase speaks of doing one's best? 

Listening is not passive at all. Listening is the most active thing one can do. Listening requires intent. Intention to understand, not to respond. Like one of the 7 habits of highly successful people says: "Seek to understand, before being understood." 

Don't wait for opportunities to "come to you". Go looking for them. Be aware of your surroundings so you don't miss the opportunities that are all around you. 

No matter how difficult life may get, Let's be thankful nothing is for ever. Thankful for every moment we are alive. Let's take a moment and be thankful for the all the things we normally take for-granted. Thankful for the moments life continues to gift to us.
