L E V E R A G E ! Your Turn to Help Me



Smll t Roses

We're in such a rush...we abbreviate our language, our thoughts...take shortcuts even when we sleep!...this week, it's time to STOP and smell the roses. Get your nose up to that bloom: Real Close. Don't hurry...take a long time. Be the bee that lingers...

See the veins running through.

Understand the design.

Examine the simple complexity of each petal.

Think about how systems unfold.

Place yourself inside. Gently...

Enjoy!


On a personal note...March 16 to 21...
Leverage, for me,
means spending "self" time on a regularly scheduled basis. We are doing a road trip, our quarterly time out for the week. You won't find us easily, since we will be hunkered down on the shores of Lake Superior in a remote lodge in Minnesota. No putes, no emails, no cell phones. Yes: inspiration, nature, silence, fresh air and good wine.

So, I need your help! The "Ideas du Jour" are totally YOURS this week... check out the archives, get inspired, and send me your 7 - 7 word phrases that define LEVERAGE in your world. I'll post them next week!

BTW, roses say more than I love you! Roses mean, "I love me". Treat yourself, or someone you love to the magic of just one fresh bloom.

My grandma used to say, "Bring me flowers now, not when it's too late." That's a phrase that echoes "Leverage to love".

See you soon!

Maggie
