Could the secret to a long life be having the right attitude?
Virginia Halas McCaskey, long time owner of the Chicago Bears, passed away at the start of the year and lived her 102-year life with an “I GET to do this” attitude - a perspective on life that made every day a joy and a privilege. And everyone around her felt it! It was contagious.
We all face hardships, feel tired or frustrated. On some days more than others. It's the same for any job - even in your role as a parent. The day-to-day and the mundane (like housework!) appear to lack any ‘charm’ but the pay-off is there. It is a joy and a privilege to clean a house made dirty by healthy children playing, and to wash dishes because we were able to eat three meals today, and to do piles of laundry because we all have clean clothes to wear.
Change your perspective, and every day is an “I GET TO do this” blessing. Happy Monday!
