Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Pema Chödrön, “Rejoicing in ordinary things is not sentimental or trite. It actually takes guts.”   YouTube: https://youtu.be/9r89lzyRBbY   Check Out These Highlights: What a great quote.  It takes guts to find joy in the little mundane things in life!   I know I feel like I run from one thing to the next every day, and even on the weekend.  Lately, I have been asking myself, “Why do I have so much going on all the time?”   During my entire career and business, I have always been a doer.  As I age, I am realizing that each moment in life is precious.  Yet, I find myself at the end of the day noticing that I'm not pausing enough during the day to appreciate a client call, an email with a joke, or time to run and grab a bit to eat.  Why do I do this to myself? Perhaps you may ask yourself the same question.   About Jacob Aqua: Jacob is a Master in Mindfulness Studies Candidate, a teacher of Cognitively Based Compassion Training, and the co-founder and Chief Mindfulness Officer of Source Wellness.   How to Get in Touch With Jacob Aqua: Website:  http://www.sourcewellness.co/ Email:  jaqua04@sourcewellness.co Free Webinar Series:  https://www.sourcewellness.co/the-intersection-webinar   Stalk me online!
