"Follow effective action with quiet reflection. From
the quiet reflection will come even more effective action." ~Peter F.
Drucker
"Reflection is the pause that gives a person
perspective and renewed energy." ~John Maxwell
"To sharpen
the saw means having a balanced program for self-renewal in the four areas of
your life: physical, social/emotional, mental, and spiritual." ~Stephen R.
Covey
"Are the changes that are happening in your life
bringing grief or growth?" ~John Maxwell
There is a certain uplift and power that comes into our life
when we take the opportunity to sit back and reflect upon the ordinary
experiences of the day. In fact, reflection moves ordinary experiences into
extraordinary and gives us something to build upon for the future. It is the
silent teacher that helps us gain perspective and direction. It is how we turn
everyday experience into uncommon insight. We always hear the expression
"experience is the best teacher", but evaluated experience is
what really moves us to the next level. Experience all by itself is nothing
more than just living another day, and the moments that could have been
captured evaporate away and become nothing more than the forgotten past.
Mistakes help us to make corrective action so that we
do not repeat them. Success's fuel us to determine what action to do more of.
In both the good times and the bad times, to be a powerful and successful
person always take the time to reflect, and if you do enough of it and in the
right way you will be off and running to a better life.
