Attitude of Gratitude Day 5


Today I'm grateful for my dream job. I love what I do. I love the people I work with. I love the travel. I love the people I meet and the places I go. I love the books. I love our corporate mission.

I know you think I'm nuts but it took me a long time to get here. And yes, there are days I hate the job, the problems, the politics, etc. etc. but mostly it's worth all the hassle.

So, since you're reading this, I've been part of the team that is creating, writing, reviewing, marketing and now-releasing a brand new book called Great Work, Great Career. The book comes out in December and I really really like it. I haven't loved every book we release but this one I do. This book reminded me of why I do what I do and how I can do it better.

Triple gratitude today




Today I'm thankful for my husband's daughters' children: Zeb, Henry, and Friedrick (Ike)---OK, OK, they're my grandchildren too.

But they are A-dorable! They are healthy and happy and smart. Their parents are so much better at this than I was. I'm so proud of them. I miss these boys lots but I must admit I love that they live far away. It makes the stories more fun, the adventures more adventuresome, and absence does make the heart grow fonder.

Attitude of Gratitude Day 2

Today I'm thankful for an incredibly intelligent, talented, good looking, and occasionally obsessive husband. I'm REALLY glad that we still have that zing in our relationship--he still knows how to get my blood racing.


Recently someone commented to me that they were amazed at how we kept our relationship alive. I am too but it's working. He's the best thing that ever happened to me.
As Phil would say "Yeah, baby, that's what I'm talking about."

The Attitude of Gratitude

I'm back and recommitted to keeping up on my blog. It's November and time to think about all that I'm grateful. I'm going to post something here every day through the end of the year.

I'm thankful for my four beautiful, intelligent, and kind daughters--they are my heroes.



What are you thankful for?
