My friend Mackenzie is one of my favorite people. She's fluent in French; has run several marathons around the world, the most notable of which probably being the the New York Marathon; she was one of the first Pat Tillman scholars; she is able to do the splits-which is a serious accomplishment in my book... and the list goes on. When she puts her mind to something, it gets done. She consistently motivates me to be a better person which brings me to this post. The other day we were at lunch and she said something to me that really stuck.
It's such a simple statement that I thought I would share. Sometimes we don't realize that we have to go out of our way to be "good." From not saying something negative to volunteering your free time, it can feel like work but it always feels like the right thing.
I also wanted to share another quote by Howard Thurman that my yoga teacher read yesterday.
What makes you come alive?
