An Inspiring Thought for Today

If we want to change our lives, we must be the instruments of change. Don't wait for the world to change. We must change the way we see the world to change our experience of it -- then (and only then) our world will change.

Thank you, HuffPost!

And to start things off, I wanted to share this quote that hit me like a bolt of lightning the other day. Boom!

The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes. -- Marcel Proust

See what I mean? Boom!

The meaning was so profound that I just had to Tweet it and post it to Facebook and LinkedIn.

Minutes after tweeting it, I was retweeted by Sheri Salata (President of Oprah Winfrey Network), with a bold and euphoric, "YES!!!"

Yes, indeed!

If we want to change our lives, we must be the instruments of change. Don't wait for the world to change. We must change the way we see the world to change our experience of it -- then (and only then) our world will change. We are the power!

And just like that, boom!

Be inspired and make it a wonderful day,
Gigi G.
