Good, Cheap, Fast & Urgent or Important

You have a big presentation coming up & just discovered a stain on your favorite outfit. Quick, to the cleaners! Your regular shop is perfect but they have a standard 3-day turnaround so that won't work.

Your only choice is a designer shop, the one in the fancy part of town, they'll do a special for you. And you're off! We all pay companies for...

Karl, Thank you for sharing the experience you had while processing the loss of your father.

In their 2016 Book of Joy , the Dalai Lama and Bishop Desmond Tutu instruct us to consider our own mortality. They rightly contend that this will bring a sense of urgency, perspective, and gratitude. They also share that the best way to achieve joy is by serving others. Amazing stuff!! Thank you for your post and sharing Karl.
