first and last

Think about the words "first" and "last"... in different situations we have a preferred association with one over the other. For example, you may want to be first in line for the food buffet or first to come up with the next big idea. On the other hand, sometimes we want to be the last to be vulnerable, or the last person to have to give up something for someone else. And if you are in a renting a house situation, well you just hate first and last's... (my attempt to be funny) Okay I won't try that again lol. 

But whatever word we associate ourselves with, whether first or last, it's usually with a self-serving motive. We choose our preference of first or last based on what will be best for us. 

What if we turned that upside down. And in decisions that we make, consciously make them for the benefit of someone other than ourselves. 

 In a “me first” world... it's hard. 

But imagine what even just one full day would look like if you committed to making decisions with others in mind before yourself... in every way possible... 

I am willing to bet that at the end of the day, you would feel more fulfilled and purposeful than any other day living for yourself.

Just some food for thought...
