Here are some people who accomplished things late in life. I admire all of them. I'm 47, and one day I'm going to figure out what I want to do with my life: http://ow.ly/OZM430j9gsl http://ow.ly/i/DZeT9

I have been going to the office since July for about 2 days a week. Here is why: 1. I miss the office 2. I miss the snacks in the office 3. I miss the people in my office 4. I miss the ease of communicating ideas face-to-face 5. Most importantly, I don't want #covid19 fear to stop me from getting on with #life . How 'homesick' for the office are you? #WorkFromHome #India Image credit: WhatsApp/Source unknown …see more
It’s rare to have a friend from childhood and stay friends for life, and to have shared so many experiences together. I’ll miss Nik Powell enormously, as so many of us will - https://virg.in/5fw

This is Red. Red is my service pup. You see... Red listens. He listens to intuition and senses heightened heart rates and emotion... He notices changes in movement and tone. When he is triggered by an episode, he approaches the subject and puts his paw on the subject to signal change and comfort. If we are on a video call, He is always in the background. Stress, seizures, anxiety and everything in between, he is here to serve others ALWAYS before himself. Always alert. Leading with love. Let's be more like Red. Listen. Support. Love. #leadership #motivation #chantelshares …see more

My little brother would have graduated high school today. A part of me feels so guilty. For being the older brother & for being alive. He was so much smarter and so much more talented than I am. I spent so much time working for a better life for myself and the people I cared about... and I neglected my relationship with one of the people I loved most. If you’re working right now — tell someone you love... that you love them. I promise that’s one thing you’ll never regret. I miss you every day little brother. I’ve become a better person because of you. I promise I’ll make you proud. #justQ 🖖🏽🖤 …see more
I got a glimpse of his #life reading "Travelling to Infinity" by his wife, Jane Hawkins. It made me think at many levels. He would have been 79 today (DOB: Jan 08, 1942). Reducing expectations to zero is a powerful thought; it doesn't mean you give up. It means it frees you from fear and failure. Also, no expectations mean you free yourself from external recognition to validate your work and achievements. This is so apt for Hawkins, who was never awarded a Nobel prize, although, in 2020 (two years after his passing), a Nobel prize was given for his work on black holes, which came too late for Hawkins. #Inspiration #Motivation #WhatInspiresMe …see more

Fun #winefact : most people are drinking their red wine too warm, and their white wine too cold! My secret to perfect wine is to stick it outside for 10 or 15 mins. Your wine will be around 63 degrees - perfect temperature for sipping!! (Although might not work in South Beach!!) 🍷 #winewednesday https://lnkd.in/eNp2mGe …see more
