Who Will Cry When You Die Life Lessons From The Monk Who Sold His

55.
Take a Mini-Vacation
While you cannot go on a major vacation every week, you certainly can go on a
minor one. A mini-vacation begins with closing the door of your office, holding
all calls and relaxing in your chair. Then close your eyes and begin taking deep
breaths. Once you feel deeply at peace, begin to imagine you are at your favorite
vacation spot. Vividly see the colors, hear the sounds and feel the emotions that
this special place evokes. After only a few minutes of this mental escape, you
will be rejuvenated, ready for the rest of the day ahead.
When I take my mini-vacations, I picture myself walking through a
mountain meadow. I visualize my feet on the dewy grass and savor the splendor
of the snow-capped mountains that frame this ideal scene. In the background, I
hear the sound of water from a waterfall and imagine what the flowers that fill
this field smell like.
Our minds are extremely potent devices. The subconscious mind cannot tell
the difference between an image that we envision and one that is real. So this
little technique actually fools it into thinking we are taking this quick break from
our daily routines and invokes many of the wonderful physical benefits of a real
vacation.


56. Become a Volunteer
I find a great deal of wisdom in the ancient Persian proverb “I wept because I
had no shoes until I saw a man who had no feet.” It is so easy to magnify our
problems and lose sight of the many blessings we all have to be so very grateful
for. Giving the gift of your time by volunteering to serve those who have less
than you is an excellent way to remind yourself on a regular basis of the
abundance that exists in your life.
After a keynote speech on leadership I delivered to the sales team of a large
insurance company, a man came up to me and told me he was one of the firm’s
top producers. One of the reasons for his success, he said, was his habit of
spending a few hours a week helping those less fortunate than he was. “Seeing
what others don’t have keeps me awake to all the good things I do have. It
prevents me from taking things for granted and, even more importantly, helps
me make a difference in the lives of people who really need me.”
French physician Albert Schweitzer observed, “I don’t know what your
destiny will be but one thing I do know: The only ones among you who will be
happy are those who have sought and found how to serve.” And Anne Morrow
Lindberg wrote, “One can never pay in gratitude; one can only pay ‘in kind’
somewhere else in life.” Volunteering affords you the chance to help others and
pay back the debt owed to those who have helped you.
