You’re designed to live a life that only you can live. Singular.
Here’s a sure-fire plan for misery: chase others’ dreams in place of your own. Marching in someone else’s parade is not good for anyone. It robs the Larger Story of YOU.
Dreams. They’re personal … between you and the Creator.
You don’t need to be a hero. The big man.
You have the chance to walk with everyone else in the journey, appreciating the diversity of it all …
You want to fight your fight.
We all do.

Time is a gift. Overflowing with potential.
Should we make resolutions and set goals? Sure. But it’s smart to intentionally place them in the larger setting of STORY. Our lives are a series of smaller stories (sub-plots) composed into our personal LIFE STORY.
A key part of our happiness is to be creative. Creativity and happiness seem to go together. Why? I believe it’s because we were designed in this fashion.
But it’s even more than that. If our creativity is self-absorbed, the outcome will not be happiness. Our quest must be to create for the benefit others. And in that, we benefit ourselves.
A recent commencement address at Wellesley High School in Massachusetts went viral. English teacher David McCullough Jr. said, “Selflessness is the best thing you can do for yourself.” Counter-intuitive, but happiness is that way.
We each have unique ways to add value … even multiply value. We then reap blessing and happiness as we sow value.
How can we experience an increased flow of creativity?
