Welcome

I believe excellence is more about how we live our lives than if we get 10 out of 10 on a test. So with this Blog I hope to inspire people to find the excellence in their lives. I'll be sharing ideas, articles and other bits that I come across in my day to day work and life - things that make me feel good, or inspire me. I hope you'll like them and that you'll pass them on.

Spring has Sprung

In celebration of the first day of Spring (Vernal Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere), here are some random thoughts and a couple of photos taken in Vancouver, BC March 20/11.

This is my favorite time of year. There's a bit more daylight, the temperature is little warmer, the air seems cleansed and the songbirds have returned. I've always felt that it is a time of renewal, and fresh starts.






Spring is sprung,
the grass is riz,
I wonder where the boidies is.
They say the boid is on the wing.
But that's absoid.
The wing is on the boid.

I invite you to take a few moments and reflect on the things you like most about Spring. Is it the fresh air after a rain shower, or the joy of planning and planting a garden? Maybe it's the fact that there's now a bit more daylight every day; feeling the warmth of gentle sunshine on your face; the sound of birdsong; the discovery of vivid, light green tree buds that seem to appear overnight?

What is it about this time of year makes you feel good?


Here are some Spring rituals from around the world
