I have been reading your blog for the past few months, but this is the first time I have ever commented. I’m not sure why, but I don’t generally leave comments on websites.

But I felt the need to write this time because I wanted to tell you how your Make it Happen Monday series has really impacted my life. I find myself anticipating Monday all weekend long so that I can see what you’re write about next. You are an incredible motivator Darryl and I want to thank you for what it’s done for me.

Thank You,

Jennifer

I like that attitude. I think I can learn a lot from Tambo. Thanks for another excellent Monday post. I agree with Joel and I hope you keep these coming out every week.

I’m glad you’re a fan of Make it Happen Monday….but then again you are one of those guys who makes it happen every day. You are totally right….if you look for it, there is a lot of worry out there. But with an attitude like the one you describe, you’ll definitely be living the Tambo way.

You’re MIHM posts are always so engaging. Today, however, you’ve really got this
racecar in the red. I’m not saying it’s
dangerous, I just had to find another gear.
I could literally feel my brain swell as thoughts about this subject
raced through my mind as I read it. You broach on the
essence of serenity when you speak of living worry free. The deck is stacked against us bro,
everywhere we look, everything we see, everything we hear; we are inundated
with things to worry about. The news is
nothing more than a daily dose of stuff to cause worry. Seems like the only thing they advertise
anymore is some kind of drug to treat a problem 11 out of 13 people will become
afflicted with between the ages of 18 & 61.
For a long time, I worried about everything, all I can say about that
is, “That’s about 30 years I’ll never get back”. Worry is fueled by doubt and lack of
trust. This is not something I picked up
from reading a book by some self-awareness guru, but rather a statement based
on decades of experience. I’ve found
happiness because I quit looking for it and started making it. I worry less and concentrate more. Sure life is going to have its obstacles, but
I know I’m prepared to deal with whatever comes my way. Like riding downhill with the wind, effortless,
but aware there are still hills, even mountains, I’ll have to climb.

Love it D!
I think worry is really just another form of fear. Which are both the result of lack of knowledge. I just try and accept things as they are and keep them in overall life perspective. I had a Rasta friend that always said “Wutch you worried bout mon”
