Ice Chip #7

Let me say I apologize for the lateness of this week’s Ice Chip.  I had a cardiac incident on Saturday afternoon, and now have a stent in one of my arteries.

Yes, around 2PM on 3-28, I had a wake-up call.  A blessing in the form of an opportunity to shift some paradigms for my life.

I am very grateful for this opportunity.

While in the hospital, I was away from my computer and away from emails.  When I returned home on Tuesday, I found the following Quote Action in my inbox dated Sunday 03-29-09:

Here’s your “QuoteAction” of the day:

“The art of living is always to make a good thing out of a bad thing.”
Economist, E.F. Schumaker

Your action for today is to take a bad thing that has happened
to you recently and see if you can make a good thing out of it.

Enjoy an extraordinary day!

What an incredible coincidence!!

I am so blessed by the love and care of my wonderful wife, partner and best friend:  Nancy.  The care I received from the medical team…my friends…the calls…and emails…and well wishes…and flowers and cards; went way beyond anything I could have imagined.   THANK YOU ALL FOR THESE PRECIOUS GIFTS!!

So here is an Ice Chip that will forever change my point of view:

“I embrace any circumstances that come my way, because I have been blessed with an opportunity to shine in excellence.”  ~~Bob Nicoll

Remember to acknowledge your areas of growth and change, as well as your greatness.

You are a remarkable miracle, and it is my honor to continue to share this journey with you.

Until next week….

Best regards, and love and respect,

Bob
