It can however be ridden and enjoyed to extreme levels!
So many people live in their past dwelling on what they used
to be or upset with the way their lives have been lived!
Consider your life as a speedboat and wherever you have
steered that boat you have left a trail or a wake that is behind you! It cannot be changed; your trail is marked
with your deeds and actions. After a
while they will slowly go away and end up on some shore.
As Captain of your boat, it is up to you to steer it in the
direction of your desired course in life. In every instance you leave a past that should
be kept there. It can always be
remembered and cherished or simply forgotten.
The wonder of it all; it is up to you to choose! Some people will go out and buy a map and
chart a course or follow one that others have set forth for them while others
will simply drift!
My favorite will lick
their finger stick it up in the wind and decide then and there where life will
lead them today!
The benefit of leading an exciting life is the wake of your
boat is always fun to play on. Your past
is appreciated and celebrated and easy to visit since you left such a magnificent
trail!
I recently stepped back into a past chapter in my life. Managers that use to work with me at WaterFurnace
International came to visit and talk about old times. I
truly enjoyed hearing the stories of cool adventures and profitable times in business. We all appreciated how we steered our boats
back then and were proud of the wake we left!
The other benefit of this analogy involves the understanding
that there is always a new course that leads to a new day and a new life! A life that you create with your new
path. That new path leaves a new trail
to be remembered and appreciated.
Where are you steering your boat today?
