I hope this visit finds you all well and prospering. I had an experience this week that I thought I would share with all of you today. I believe once you hear about the event then you too may benefit from the 2 lessons that I took from the events of that day. Essentially the story goes like this, I was in a courtroom this past tuesday. No worries, I wasn’t there because of anything I had done but rather as a witness in a case. As I waited for the case I was involved with to be heard, I watched the ebb and flow of the court and all involved. I listened to one after another case be presented before the judge. The first lesson that came to mind while I watched these proceedings was how blessed each and everyone of us are in our lives. If you ever feel like having a great big pity party for yourself and your life then a great exercise that you should partake in is to go to a local county courthouse to see and hear the truly heart breaking stories of those accused. There you will see one after another life that has been broken by this world subject to the courts.

If any of you think for one second your life is not yet what you always dreamed of then stop the pity party now. Nobody wants to hear it!! We all have our horror stories of where life has knocked us down but remember it’s not how many times you have been knocked down – it’s how many times you get up and move forward. The people I saw stand in front of the judge were not much different than you and I. The only difference was you and I have definite HOPE. Many of the people I saw this past Tuesday did not have any hope at all. I could see it in there eyes. Their soul or spirit was literally broken. Just like a dog that has been beaten so much that their spirit has been broken and they cower to everything and everyone. So were these people that stood before the judge. However, you don’t have to be one of those people because you are a chiropractor that has a very unique opportunity that fulfills one of the vital keys to success. I will share that essence at the start of our next visit and eventually we will get to the lesson number two that came from that day in court. Until then God Bless!!!
