Lesson learned from Con: In the hustle and bustle of life we often forget what is important to us. Life has a way of distracting, enticing, seducing us to do and be something we are not. Forces and dependencies and needs motivate us to strive after things "they" believe are important. We lose that sense of peace within ourselves to be replaced with anxiety, worry - "will I do enough, be enough, succeed enough?"

At the moment of our deaths - and make no mistake we all will die - what really matters is what we think and feel about our lives. Am I happy with my life? Am I at peace with myself? If our answer to these questions, if asked right now, is "no" then something is wrong. Fix it. Find peace.
