Who do you know that doesn't have the economy on their mind these days? I usually don't pay much attention to money matters because up until recently, the market had not affected me much. That is the beauty of not being rich--and by rich I mean having gobs of disposable cash. I am rich in ways that transcend the monetary. One of the biggest blessings in my life has been the ability to laugh in the face of most anything. I was leaving improv practice the other day - yes I am one of those crazy people who get up in front of people and make up wacky stuff!!! Anyway I was thinking about how I don't fret or worry while I am actually playing. Improv is about being in the present. It is about focusing on the immediate and it is about choice. What a concept. Staying in the present and focusing on the funny. When I try to remember the thing I worried about last week, I am often at a loss. Do you remember the biggest thing that caused you to worry a month ago? Worrying never helped and never changed an outcome as long as I have lived, yet if I decide to dwell on something that I have no power to change - in no time - life sucks. If I decide to wear my life a little more loosely, if I decide to see the funny in all situations, if I look at my life with a tiny bit of perspective - IT DOESN'T SUCK. Diverting the mind - choosing to see the beauty and fun - taking some time to express my inner beauty - I think I choose that for today. Check out my Improv cd, along with the Creativity Booster. Divert your mind and laugh all the way to success!!!!
