MUOAR?

So,you’ve CHOSEN your goal and crafted your ACTION LIST based on your own knowledge and experience.

Now it’s time to expand that knowledge by working with all your RESOURCES.

I remember when I was younger watching an episode of the TV series Black Sheep Squadron where Major Greg ‘Pappy” Boynton preaches to Marine Attack Squadron 214, AKA The Black Sheep Squadron, “Maximum utilization of available resources.”

That's also something my father taught me throughout his life.

The “Maximum utilization of available resources” principle has made such an impression on me that I’ve made it part of Carpe Diem Life:  RESOURCES

Your greatest resource?  YOU!

“The best place to find a helping hand is at the end of your own arm!”
      Swedish Proverb

But sometimes, as the Beatles sing, you need to get by with a little help from your friends.

Today, more than any time in history, we have more resources available to us – literally at the end of our arms and the end of our hand -- at our fingertips:

  • Family and Friends are just a phone call, text, or email away
  • Web Sites and YouTube videos
  • And public libraries offer books, magazines, and a world of services

You either find a way or your make a way.  Hopefully the Carpe Diem Life Map is a resource that helps.

Carpe diem!
