In the beginning of this year I read a book that taught me a lot. One of the things that this book recommended was to write a personal mission statement. It had to be something short that expressed the very essence of what you want to do in your life. I agree with Mr. Stephen R. Covey , writing your personal mission statement is a great way to remind yourself where you want to go. Here I'm sharing what I wrote with you. I keep it in a visible place so I can read it often and make sure that I stick to it.









That's lovely, Elsa

I love this idea, and I love your mission statement too. Such a great thing to come back to in times of uncertainty.

Now that's a mission I could get behind. Very nice. = )

Keep your mission close to your heart. Sadly...to many people in the word today don't. We need your kind of thinking.
Thanks for sharing

I like the idea of writing a personal statement.
BTW, we were listening to the soundtrack from Cold Mountain today, and it reminded me of you. I still adore that movie.

such a great idea to write our insides out... the rumblings in our bones that get muffled by the everyday noise.
and your statement is a marvel to strive towards. a beautiful way to live.
