An Exciting Opportunity

Your best friend gives you his gleaming bottle green Lamborghini to use for theweekend whilst he’s away on a business trip. He tosses you the keys and tells you that you can go anywhere, as long as you return the car with a full tank of gas.

Your imagination runs wild…your options are limitless. You mind conjures up that trip to Las Vegas that you promised yourself so long ago…maybe Paris isn’t so far away after all..your grey matter is running wild.You career through hundreds of fantastic imaginary journeys, yet, moment by moment, the weekend slips gently by. It’s late on Sunday.

You’re weary ..you’ve been nowhere.

Monday morning eases its way in. Mournful, dejected and confused, you give your friend back his keys. You didn’t even drive the car out of the garage.

What can you learn from this weekend of woe?

    Human beings spend their lives deciphering feelings and figuring out how to express what they mean. Some people think feelings and emotions as well as free will are what distinguish us among other creatures. Many people also find it a challenge to say what they mean and mean what they say.

    The book Emotional Intelligence by Danile Goleman is a thought-provoking take on the subject.

    Hello Liara:

    Goleman’s book truly did bring about a shift in human conciousness. Now that we “know” so much, we now have to consciously decide what we want to become.
