I started to write on a different subject. But as my hands hit the keys, I heard a voice in my head say: “If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you…that will be enough.”
Clearly, Meister Eckhart was sending me a message (and maybe you too) which I imagined went like this: “Toss the original topic. Focus on giving thanks. Stop looking at what you lack (as I sometimes do). Instead, appreciate the abundance you have….and those who’ve made it possible”
So today, in the spirit of Thanksgiving and a 13th century mystic, I’m taking this opportunity to say Thank You…
…to all of you who are reading this blog, even if it’s the only time you ever do, I truly appreciate you reading it today.
…to everyone who’s ever written to tell me how my work has impacted your life, you have no idea how your words have impacted mine. In fact, your notes and emails are hanging on my office walls.
…to anyone who’s bought my books and perhaps passed one onto a friend, this means more to me than you can ever know.
…to those of you who’ve joined The Wealth Connection or signed up for coaching, I’m endlessly grateful you trusted me to guide you while teaching me to be a better guide.
…to my amazing team—Lynda Jo, Carney & Ben—for taking care of all the details I abhor and for supporting me in such a deeply loving way. I really would be lost without each of you.
…to my ex who gambled away my inheritance and my father who wouldn’t lend me money, you taught me that, indeed, the obstacle is the path, leading me straight to my life’s purpose.
…to my wonderful financial team, because even if the market is a bit rocky, my portfolio is dramatically higher than 20+ years ago when I first found you.
…to my kids, grandkids and stepson who are traveling on the busiest days of the year to spend Thanksgiving with us. Truly, my cup runneth over.
…to my beloved husband, Lee, who rarely lets a day pass without expressing his love, appreciation and support for me. I feel exactly the same about you.
Once again, from the bottom of my heart…THANK YOU ALL!
I’d love to know who’d you like to thank this holiday season. Leave me a comment below.
