Live according to our own truth
Too often we react to the outside world and stop living according to our own ideals and the way we believe we should live.
Gail Pursell Elliot wrote in her Food for Thought article that we should like what we do. She said, “What really defines us is our approach to what we find ourselves doing, not the job itself. We may not always do what we would like but we can find something to like about what we do.” In her article she also quoted a man named Kent Kieth as saying, “If you're not giving the world the best you have, what world are you saving it for?" - Kent Keith
To tie these two people with good messages together, Gail and Kent, I searched the internet for the name Kent Keith. I like to find out who these quoted people are and other things they’ve said. In my quick search however, I could not find anything official on Kent Kieth. I did find a blog with something he wrote though:
Ryan Masuga wrote about Kent Kieth’s 10 Rules for Living:

For your reference, here is the link to Gail’s website: http://www.innovations-training.com/index.htm You can subscribe to the free “Food for Thought” newsletter, attend her training and buy her books on Mobbing and Dignity and respect. I like Gail because she always has a message about how to treat other people like we’d like to be treated. Kind of the golden rule in day-to-day terms.
Ryan makes a good point about not taking things personally. We should continue to live in the best way we know how regardless of how other’s are choosing to live.
