So much truth here! I’m at a place in my life (been here before) where I feel out of place. And I haven’t moved! Actually ......as soon as I wrote that last sentence...I realized I already have the solution. If Im in the wrong place, I may need to ‘move’!! (and quit asking ‘who moved my cheese’). And I don’t have to pack up and travel or buy a new house in order to move.....for me it’s a mental move. I can move away from stale thoughts, explore new ideas, nurture new relationships, explore new ideas. The options are endless. I can move my own cheese. I love how the The Lift stirs the creative thinker in me without telling me what to do.....but rather stimulates my own thinking about where I am and the many available options. Thanks for the Sunday morning Lift.....it’s the highlight of my week for sure.

You make a point, I like it.
But what is value?! Do we really need approval, recognitions from social media, family and friends, or from our thoughts? The correct belief is: I am valuable. Period.
I think a water bottle is valuable no matter the price. Where we sell it and for how much is unimportant… someone’s thirst is satisfied and that is the real value.
We forget what real value is. It’s sad and mental health is in big trouble because society pushes the wrong values in life.

Thank you for this! And yes, there are so many ways to ‘move’ ourselves. Enjoy the exploration!
Yes! This is an awesome perspective. Thank you!!! ☀️

Just my perspective.
Absolutely agree!
