Whenever I can... I try to erase the "In" from "Invisible"

  “I’m not invisible.”

 
When I travel through airports, I notice folks who may seem invisible.
 
For example, have you ever paid attention to the attendants who are stationed in airport bathrooms? In the men’s rooms (as I can only speak to this sector), some have a table and mouthwash. Their job is to keep the bathroom they’re assigned to, clean, sanitary, and nice for us to visit for only a few minutes. Can you imagine how nasty an airport bathroom could become in just one day, if these folks were not so strategically positioned?
 
By mentioning this, I’m not trying in any way to diminish anyone’s value, station in life, or contribution to the greater good. Rather, I try to go out of my way to say hello, tell them “Thank you,” or contribute to their tip jars. Their response is often one of amazement that someone noticed they were there.
 
Whenever I can, I try to erase the “in” from “invisible.”

Make a "QUOTE" Challenge

By
As a man it is my wish to positively impact someone's life by certain words or a quote of wisdom that maybe I was known for saying often.  Something to impact a persons thoughts and inspires a healthy habit in their lives each time they think of it.  An example would be something my Uncle told me as I was preparing to go into the Army many years ago. He said: "In the windstorm do not be like a oak tree branch and crack....be like a blade of grass and bend! "  I have never forgot those words.  When life gets stressful we sometimes crack.  Instead... like the blade of grass.... let us bend and bounce back up even though its windy. I am challenging you all.  Kids & Parents to create or write down your favorite quote that you enjoy.  Please share your quote on as a comment on the blog!  Lets see what beautiful wisdom we can be blessed with!  Here is one I created about a year or two ago.  It helps me to work on myself daily and fo...

Develop Your Personal Development Plan 3 Gratitude's This activity helps people “start to retain a pattern of scanning the world, looking not for the negative, but for the positive first.”  “Because we can only focus on so much at once, our brains push out those small annoyances and frustrations that used to loom large into the background.”  To get started, make a list of the good things in your life, in school, in your family, and in your career. At the end of each day, reflect on the previous 24 hours and record three good things that happened that day.  These “good things” can be things that made you laugh, that gave you a feeling of accomplishment or something that gave you hope for the future. Journaling “Journaling about one positive experience you’ve had over the last 24 hours, allows your brain to relive it.”  To get started, take 20 minutes, three times a week and write about a positive experience. Exercise “Physical Activity can boost mood a...
