When you are overwhelmed by the trials of every day life (as I am right now), remember what Lewis Robinson always said in the Disney animated movie, “Meet the Robinsons”:  KEEP MOVING FORWARD.  It has become, most recently  my new mantra in life.
 
Life is too short to dwell in the past.  And because we are beings of finite resources, I find I also don’t have the energy to relive past challenges over and over again. (They were draining enough the first time around.
 
To keep this short and sweet, and because I’m utterly exhausted (work, kids and WINTER, ugh..) I’m relying on others’ great quotes to keep me motivated through our remaining cold days of the season.
 
We need to stay focused on the positive, as well as keep our minds and hearts open to the universe’s selfless yet random and albeit rare opportunities.   And as my dear and very wise father always encouraged, “Don’t focus on the problem, focus on the solution.”
 
Find what motivates you, search for continued knowledge and growth, and your path will unfold.  You will have no recourse but to “keep moving forward”.
 
“When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds: Your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great, and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.”
~ Patanjali – the author of Yoga Sutra
