Quitting is not an option!



Just 6 short days ago from writing this, we moved the kids, my parents in law, the nanny and the dog Lola to a new house. Amidst the boxes, unwrapped decor, pictures waiting to be hung, and winter clothes mixed with summer...it's been challenging to keep everything and every ONE together. My darling husband was in deep thought the other day, and decided to let me know that all our 'stuff' that he sees laying around is just that, and why do we need so many things? Why do we even own anything at all?  

Okay, while he is right on one hand (spiritually) , on the other, why is he telling me this NOW?

So my cheerleader hat came on, and I let him know that we should go ahead and just give up, quit. He asked what I meant? What was I talking about?  

EXACTLY. Quitting is not an option!  

It's easy to get out of sorts when things are not in their place, scattered all over. This happens in our families, friendships, and teams all the time! Change has a way of challenging our innermost fears, and the easy way out is to just quit.

So next time the thought of giving up creeps in, DON'T! Dig in wherever you are. Clean slate the past and move forward.

In the markets

Interest rates ended last week lower after officials noted that weak growth in other countries could slow growth in the US.   


As always, enjoy your week!
