Dream Think Act

Life is like a buffet.  

Imagine you pay a hundred dollars for the world’s most amazing buffet. There are appetizers, salads, soups, main courses and desserts. You can’t wait to eat it all to get your money worth.  The dishes all look so good and amazing. You want to eat them all.   But wait…  There is a problem.  Your stomach can only hold so much food.  If you eat too much, it will make you sick.  You need to be selective.  You need to pick the best dishes in the house.  Focus on the best dishes first so you and your stomach can both enjoy this great experience. 

You need a strategy. You need to find a way that you can identify the best dishes in the house. The issue is that the look of the dish doesn’t always guarantee the taste. Many dishes look great from the outside but when you actually bite into them they may not be so tasty.   If you choose the wrong dish, you have a choice.  You can either just down it or spit it out.  It takes courage to spit it out.  You probably will get some dirty looks from the buffet line and feel embarrassed.  They might think you are crazy and wasting food.  But don’t forget that you are eating this buffet for you, not for anyone else. 

The food won’t run away, but there are other people in the buffet line. If you don’t decide quickly some of the best dishes might be gone. But also don’t forget your plate is only so big and you need to finish one dish before you can come back for another one.  

Life is like a buffet.  

There are many things you want to achieve; thousands of things. They all look so exciting. You want to conquer them all. You can’t wait to accomplish everything, but you only have so much time, energy and brain power. 

What do you do now?  

You need to take one bite at a time. 

Focus on what you have in front of you now. To truly enjoy the food you can’t put too much in your mouth. Your stomach needs to slowly digest it.  Focus on one dish at a time and get the most of each dish.   

To truly enjoy your amazing life journey, you need to focus on and pay full attention to what you have in front of you right now. Allow your mind, body and soul to completely submerge into this one thing.  Allow yourself to get the most out of it.  Allow yourself to truly taste it.  

When you finish the first dish no one will stop you from getting your second, third or fourth servings. Get one thing done and then come get your second serving as soon as you can.
