The Gratitude Spot
Now living in my 7th country, and having been an expat for 35 years, I have spent a lot of time thinking about Gratitude and what that means for all of us.
Especially when moving to new countries, but also periodically in our lives, it’s valuable to check in with ourselves and ensure we are making mindful decisions about our professional and personal lives.
How can we be more present, more impactful, more inspiring, more effective and efficient, more authentically and unapologetically us. How can we make a positive difference in this world, wherever our journeys may take us? And be grateful for these choices that we make?
What is it for us that gives life meaning?
For me, its nurturing meaningful relationships with my family and close friends. It’s honoring my children’s role as my Greatest Teachers in Life, and striving to be a decent role model for them. It’s being kind and compassionate to everyone, even when it’s hard. It’s caring for my own health and well-being so that I’m able to be fully present for those I care about and respect, and present with substance and something of value to offer.
It’s passionately developing my professional career, serving my clients and sharing my talents in a sustainable way, leaving a positive impact on profits, people and the planet.
I invite you to join me on this journey and leave comments when there’s something that has particular meaning for you, that moves you, or something with which you categorically disagree.
As I perpetually evolve and fine tune what I’m doing here in this world, facing compelling challenges along the way, I always ensure that I’m enjoying the ride!
