Wisdom Writings: Sunday Serenity

 

Have to vs Get to

"We spend a lot of time talking about everything we have to do.

You have to finish 10 things at work. You have to exercise today. You have to cook dinner for your family.

Now, change one word in each sentence. You don’t “have” to. You “get” to.

You get to finish 10 things at work. You get to exercise today. You get to cook dinner for your family.

The right perspective transforms your burdens into opportunities."

 

Executive coach Cherie Carter-Scott on life-long learning:

"Lessons are repeated until they are learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can go on to the next lesson.

Learning lessons does not end. There's no part of life that doesn't contain its lessons. If you're alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned."

From ‘Generation Wealth’ Documentary (2018)

1.    Unfettered, unregulated capitalism does what it’s designed to do, which is commodify everything.

Even human beings become commodities that you exploit for profit, until exhaustion or collapse.

2.    Global Capitalism has done a very effective job of destroying culture. That inability to hear the voices of the past, to understand traditions, makes it much harder for us to grasp who we are and where we came from.
