Our Credo

No matter how concentrated and concerted our efforts to the contrary, the simple truth is, at times, life is going to throw some significant challenges our way - often times when we are lest expecting. And so, not if - but when this happens, it will be primarily our perspective that will ultimately determine the nature of our attitude. And it will be primarily our attitude that will ultimately determine the nature of our response.

For this reason, and countless others, those who can manage to maintain a passionate, inspired approach to each and every day create a tremendous edge for not only effectively dealing with life's immanent lows - but for maximizing the quantity and quality of life's potentially magnificent highs... not to mention simply being considerably more happy and fulfilled on a daily basis.

So how can you begin to maintain a passionate, inspired approach to each and every day? That's the easy part. Believe it or not, it's as simple as beginning to alter your everyday perspective by changing the things that you expose yourself to on a regular basis... talk about.. think about... and dedicate time to... Exposure to anybody and everything negative, to the extent possible, should be eliminated - otherwise severely minimized.

Have you ever spent a considerable amount of time around someone who is overwhelmingly negative? Did you notice the affect to your psyche, spiritual equilibrium and overall energy level? If you are anything like me, the longer you stay around that extreme negativity - the more draining it becomes. Much like Superman in close proximity to a chunk of a certain glowing green mass from home, there have been times I could literally feel my energy... my spirit my 'Mojo... being inexplicably drawn from my body and mind. After a long period of exposure, I didn't particularly want to achieve anything, improve anything, create anything, aspire to anything or help anybody. I just wanted to, no needed to, go somewhere and commence to recover.

Conversely, spending ample time around someone who is inherently upbeat, energized, purposeful, inspired and continually aspiring to be better is a sure fire way for me to come away from the interaction feeling considerably more inspired and more empowered... that much more ready to believe in myself - and in a more committed fashion strive for my dreams and aspirations.

Well interestingly enough, it works in a similar fashion with exposure to low dosages of negativity or positivity on a steady basis. Negative comments, thoughts, perceptions, expectations, words and deeds will do nothing, over time, but limit your potential - and ultimately tear you down. Truly positive influences on the other hand... from wherever they come... collectively can continuously challenge, encourage and motivate us - forever nudging us forward... forever reminding us that never has a home run been the outcome of either a timid or non-existent swing.

The bottom line is life tends to play out much better when we have the ability to positively influence its outcome. And the most effective way to be that positive influence... is to simply create a you that is as influenced by positivity continuously. Do that and you can't help but be a more positive person. And if you are a more positive person, you can't help but be happier and more fulfilled in this life - even when a challenge or two finds you.

Here's our signature passage, "Begin Anew" to get you started. Read it, consider it, then read it again. For each time you read it, and anything else positive you can get your hands on - and dedicate the time and energy to absorb it... you can't help but have a little more perspective, and be a better person - and the world can't help but be a better place.

A Better Place

Above all else, SomethingToShare.com and STSTheBook.com were established as beacons for perspective - as a refuge for inspiration. And as the namesake implies, the true magnitude and potential of our efforts is ultimately contingent on the extent to which we are all willing to share - share our feelings... our experiences... our insights... our inspiration.

So, what about you? What are your hopes... your fears? What causes your biggest smiles... your heaviest tears? Do you take time out from the hustle and bustle of life every once in a while to examine your priorities... to challenge your perspective... to question your destiny? Do your loved ones truly know that they are? What is the one thing that you wish you could do to make an impact in this life? Exactly what's stopping you?

We must realize that in the end what matters in this life is not what we could have done - but what we do. And no matter how much we tell ourselves that we cannot make a difference, the truth is each day each one of us can make a difference in someway... for someone. After all, it doesn't take a lot to make a difference - just a little time and a little concern as the following passage so eloquently illustrates;

_______________________

_______________________

We can make a difference every day... for people we know and those we will never know. Selfless deeds and inspirational words have a way of taking on a life of their own - many times fostering generations of other selfless deeds and inspirational words in their wake.

So make a positive impact, no matter how big or how small, every chance you get. Whether you bring laughter to someone in the midst of losing all perspective or offer hope where there is a short supply... whether you sacrifice for someone in their hour of need or simply try to appreciate a different point of view with your paradigms freed... whether you pay for the next car at the toll booth or submit an inspirational passage to make a difference in the lives of others... Whatever you choose to do, make even a small difference on this day and the next... And The World Will Be A Better Place…
