Texxas777 Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 [size="5"]Good morning friends and fellow investors. I have been silent on our forums for a while, just been reading and doing some research with outside contacts regarding our investment. As some of you may know I am a former senior Marketing Executive who is now a Senior Pastor. My family and I pastor a great, growing church in northern Arkansas. I received a call yesterday from my former administrative assistant regarding the passing of a dear friend, actually the person who hired me for my first major, senior executive roll. He was 50 years old and lost his battle with cancer. Interestingly, I had already been thinking about our investment, the amount of time I spend looking online, reading posts etc. and weighing that out. The call yesterday sealed the deal for me. So, I am going to pass on some thoughts for you below. Take them, leave them...your call, your life; 1. Live life now. Do not wait until this investment hits to begin enjoying those around you. If you are spending more than an hour a day (which is generous by the way) on DV or other sites that is too much! Your family, friends and community need you. You can make money...you CANNOT MAKE TIME. 2. If I told you that I knew that on August 15, 2012 this was going to RV...how would you live between now and then?( I TOTALLY FABRICATED THE DATE TO MAKE A POINT) Faith is believing in what you do not see. Plan for the future but LIVE today. 3. Spend 30 minutes a day dreaming about what you would do with the investment...talk with your spouse etc and dream. Spend the rest of your day working and enjoying your life NOW. This may seem simplistic to you. The best things in life are usually that way. Stop worrying about when this will happen and how much it will RV for. I do believe it will but whether this year, next year or five years from now...I need to live, love and enjoy the time I have been given. As Adam has said..."The investor is in it for the long haul." Folks we are not here on this planet very long...enjoy the time you have...now. Diatribe complete. Texxas[/size] 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
