"The struggle is beautiful. It means you're in the midst of separating good from great." - Eddie Pinero

In this week's motivational video, I share how some of my most profound lessons came wrapped in the disguise of migraine headaches. Emerging from the haze of debilitating pain I truly began to see with clarity—an appreciation for the simplicity of a pain-free existence, for the often taken-for-granted baseline of daily life.

Sometimes it seems that we only appreciate things when they're taken away. So appreciate the beauty of now, go forward, take chances, our souls need it. Time is relentless; life is unfolding at this very moment, right here, right now. Don’t leave your dreams for sleep, nor keep gratitude on standby for the ‘what ifs.’ The stage is set, the world awaits your move, and the show? It starts right now.
