Your Dynamic Life Liaison

Dear Friend,

I hope that you had a fantastic 4th of July week ~and this finds you refreshed and recharged. For many of us, we celebrated our country’s Independence with festivities that included people we love ~ friends & family, young & old, near & far. Maybe your holiday was steeped in tradition ~ a parade, Great Grandma’s famous potato salad, a water balloon fight at dusk before the night sky was illuminated with brilliant bursts of glittering light. Perhaps this year marked a new chapter and your celebration was a spontaneous one, or the beginning of new traditions to carry on in the years to come. No matter where or how you spent your Independence Day, I would bet that you heard the sounds of laughter, voices of loved ones catching up and visiting. It’s likely that at least one person told you they loved you, and if you were anywhere in these United States of America, you heard the telltale BOOMs as fireworks erupted in every direction as the last light faded from the sky.

I’d like you to do something for me. Close your eyes for a moment, and replay your day, all that you did, with all those around you, however, imagine that you couldn’t hear the laughter, couldn’t hear the conversations taking place around you, couldn’t hear the voice of someone expressing their love for you.

Now….. Imagine………. being able to give someone the GIFT of hearing.

I would like to invite you to join me in declaring the month of July as Independence Month, and together, playing a big game with one common goal…..SO THE WORLD MAY HEAR!
The Starkey Hearing Foundation is a remarkable organization dedicated to making a difference in the world. As Bill Austin says, “Alone we can’t do much, but together we can change the world”, and you can see from their videos they are in fact changing the world each and every day. I am certain that once you see what I have seen….your heart will be just as touched, just as moved, just as inspired.

Here is a link to view some of the missions that the Starkey Hearing Foundation did ~ One of my personal favorites, if you click on “Africa”, and then “Nairobi 2010”. To experience witnessing the exact moment that these children hear for the first time – it takes your breath away.

This is my request…. I know, that together, by opening our hearts, and giving what we can, whether that is $1, $5, $10, $100…. and by sharing this email with your networks, friends, colleagues, etc…and asking them to do the same, we can raise at least $10,000 in the next 3 weeks…. and, by leveraging the matching gift that has been granted to us, each dollar will actually turn into $5. So, by our raising $10,000, that becomes $50,000, and THAT my friends changes the lives of 200 children forever……
So, please join me, let’s rally, and together, make a difference….. SO THE WORLD MAY HEAR.

Success is for the people at the precipice. The entrepreneurs, innovators, risk takers, and dreamers. Remember to never stop thinking. Proactively seek out fresh ideas and fresh answers. Find partners. Remember that you are only as smart as the people that you surround yourself with. Seek out people who are smarter, more talented, more successful, more giving, more loving than you. Nurture them.

Reward them… because they are part of your future. Become leaders of change. Become a Leader that helps others step into the light and become the leaders that they too were born to be. Move forward. Find your buzz. Create a buzz. Stir things up. Remember that life is a continual uncovering. Most of all discover the things that thrill you and do them. Shift your thinking from what is usual and predictable to what is possible. Dream again. Dream big. Be generous with your time, your love, and your spirit….take the time to brighten someone else’s day every day. Breathe. Rest. Play. Work hard. Live your Life TODAY….don’t wait until everything looks a certain way, or lines up just how you think it should, or likely, you will wait your entire life to start living it.

At some point each and every day allow yourself to be amazed….
