I SEE... I MUST...I Will Three Key Words To Help Us Live Exceptional Lives © Lee Wise 2003 All rights reserved

A GREAT TRIO

If someone were to present a set of Olympic medals to top three finalists for key phrases that help propel us toward living an exceptional style of life, finalists might very well be:

*I see! *I must! *I will!

"I SEE"

I see is vision.

It is ability -- or sense -- of a "way we need to go." It may be an inner emotion that says...

"We should do this... and we can do this." It may be a burden on heart that won't go away. Or a dream that must be realized.

You just see it.

You see book produced, organization formed, children helped, homes built, or people energized.

Next comes...

"I MUST"

This is feeling that something *must* be done.

In this phase of living exceptional style of life, there is a strong personal *conviction* that is inherently present at beginning or developed over a period of time.

I see -- that's vision. I must -- that's conviction.

Then comes...

"I WILL"

No surprise here: final medallist that steps onto winners' block is *determination.*

As watching world expresses its appreciation...

CREATE YOUR OWN "POSITIVE MEMORIES" LEGACY Working Hard At Making A Lasting Impression On Your World © Lee Wise 2003 All rights reserved

All of us have potential of leaving a set of positive memories in minds and hearts of people.

I would *love* to know that memories people have of me will be a blessing to them instead of a burden.

WE WILL LEAVE A LEGACY

Each day I live I am building a legacy of one kind or another. I *will* leave behind a set of memories and their corresponding emotions in minds and hearts of those who have known me -- or known about me.

That's a guarantee. It will take place.

My legacy -- and yours -- will "happen" and...

*It will be unique to who we are, what we have said, and how we have lived. *It will fall on either negative or positive side of "good or bad" scale life.

SO TODAY'S QUESTION IS...

Why not work hard at creating your own legacy of memories? A "positive memory legacy" if you please.

*Positive memories of yourself *Positive memories of your values *Positive memories of your lifestyle

A common term today is "intentional." That's as good as any! Why not be *intentional* in terms of legacy you will leave behind?

YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I MEAN...

Good memories. Memories that inspire people. Memories that are a blessing to others. Memories that leave behind "a good track record of life."

PLAN IT!

Plan to leave something of "high value" behind. Something that reflects deepest desires or concerns of your heart. It could be a legacy that...

*People might consider "a gift" *Causes people to fight for what is right *Saves lives *Heals hurts of others *Encourages *Inspires people to live up to their potential

The exact nature of each individual legacy will be defined by what is most important to that person.

In other words...

Your heart will provide motivation that drives you to design what type of "memory set" you desire to leave in minds of others.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT
