LAST LECTURE:
"If you can dream it, you can do it" - Walt Disney
I always like the story of Pandora's box, so Tammy and I painted our version of it. Pandora, from Greek mythology, was given a box with all the world's evil in it. She disobeyed orders not to open it. When the lid came off, evil spread throughout the world. I was always drawn to the story's optimistic ending; Left at the bottom of the box was "hope".
That's too bad. There are no better role models than people like Jackie Robinson and Sandy Blatt. The message in their stories: Complaining does not work as a strategy. We all have finite time and energy. Any time we spend whining is unlikely to help us achieve our goals. And it won't make us happier.
Carry a crayon around and smell it. It will bring back childhood memories
Each of us must decide: Am I a fun loving TIgger or am I a sad-sack Eeyore? Pick camp.
Watch his last lecture on the internet
"It's not about how to achieve your dreams. It's about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you."
