Monday Morning Motivation – Absence

(Sharing Resources to Help You Grow Personally, Professionally & Financially)

Sometimes it helps to get a little dose of encouragement — along with a good cup of coffee! — to start the day.

Hopefully the message below will help you get off to a good start for the week.  Please feel free to forward the newsletter on to others that you think would benefit from the content.


Absence

Mr. Webster offers three definitions for absence:

  • The state of being away from a place or person
  • The non-existence or lack of
  • Inattention to present surroundings or occurrences

In all of the above cases, the key message is that following:

  • Absence involves missing something

It’s a bit ironic in today’s world where we are so blessed with an easy life style and a preponderance of material possessions, the sense of absence is more common than ever.   Perhaps it’s the case that all of the things in life are not really that important.  Perhaps there is something more important that is missing.

With the above in mind, my question for you this week is the following:

  • What is absent in your life?

Thanks for sharing a bit of your time with me this Monday morning and I wish you all the best for the week.
