Einstein’s Code for Peace of Mind in Daily Life!

Albert Einstein once said, “Everything that can be counted does not necessarily count; everything that counts cannot necessarily be counted.”

How much money do you have in your bank account? And when was the last time you spent some quality time with your family?

We tend to give too much importance to things we can count, like money and houses and cars.

But tell me honestly…

When was the last time you went to sleep with complete peace of mind and a contented feeling of gratitude?

In our daily lives, we often overlook the things that really count, simply because we can’t measure them. We fight for position, money, and power and forget about the greater purpose of our existence. We forget that we are here to contribute to and make a difference in the world.

In this article, I want to bring your attention back to what really matters in life. Or as Einstein said, to those things that count but cannot necessarily be counted.

Why must you focus on the things that matter?

Simply because that is the ONLY path to happiness and satisfaction! Yes, money is good and being rich is a true blessing. But remember that money never brings true happiness and satisfaction—the way you use the money does!

Therefore, you must not overlook the small things that connect your body, mind, and soul and hold the real essence of life. If your money is not put into service, then it is a wasted value.

Think about this: nothing can compare to a moment of total gratitude and inner peace. Nothing can compare to those special seconds when you feel that you’re in complete harmony with the universe.

The true joy in life is hidden in the things you can’t measure—a baby’s smile, the beauty of nature, breathing in pure, fresh air. Those things are what represent the true value of life.

Focusing on collecting money and material goods is a very exhausting endeavor. You can be the richest man in the world, but when you’re on your death bed, you’ll find that the little things you overlooked in your life are what matter to you most. Your value, your legacy, and what you have contributed to the world are the only things that will ensure you pass out of this life with a big smile on your face!

Starting today, pay more attention to the things that can’t be counted. End each day by reflecting on what you are most grateful for in that day. Live every moment with a peaceful mind and a loving heart.

Conversations with Inspirational Women

I've received the following message from my friend and partner Christine Jackson, international life and career coach. She asked me to share it with you and I think it is of great value to you.

It is only for women, but I think men are invited too :)

Here you go:

---------------------------------

Finding someone to mentor you these days is not easy. Everyone is so busy trying to juggle their own lives and careers, that those who would have made great mentors have little time or energy to share advice that might help youto develop your career.

Can you imagine what it would be like if, instead of having just one mentor, 12 successful career women would each share their wisdom with you?

Well, that is exactly what I have planned for you. Starting in May 2008, I will interview one inspirational woman every month. I will ask all the questions you've been dying to ask and more that you may not have even thought of yet.

Best of all, these speakers don't even want to sell you anything. They are women just like you - women who have successful careers and would like to give something back to their sisters. By sharing what they have learned along the way, they hope to shine a little light on the more difficult aspects of your particular career journey.

This month I will be having a conversation with Sandra Schwimbersky. Sandra Schwimbersky, 31, studied International Business and Economics at Innsbruck University, Austria and Stirling University in Scotland. After graduating with a master's degree in 2002, she followed her passion for academic research and policy consulting for four years, working for the European Commission as well as universities and research bodies all over Europe. In 2006 she joined a multinational oil and energy corporation in a business development position in London and, earlier this year, transferred to Germany with the same company.

Sandra has achieved an excellent position and garnered much respect in an industry that traditionally would be considered very much a boys club, and she has a lot of great insights to share with you.

Join us to learn more:
Date: Tuesday, May 6th
