Change of subject. Half-heartedly. One of the powerful ideas I heard years ago is simple. If you want to live inspired to do your best, read inspirational books, attend inspirational events, surround yourself with inspirational people, watch inspirational movies, live in everything that can be inspirational. For this reason, it is also vital to change the subject, or, as in this case, to return to the essential.

With apologies to all the speakers of the last week, last night I listened to a talk that surpassed them all at The Openhouse Project, because it brought me ideas and contributions that do enter the zone of what is truly important. And since I found it available on YouTube, here is a portion of that presentation by Andy Stanley, with apologies as it is only available in English. One additional word from me is superfluous:

Do you have difficulty managing dissatisfaction or discontent? Do you often desire something as if it were irresistible? If so, there is a reason, and it is in message number five of the Balanced series, explaining why the appetite for more may be insatiable. However, once the message is understood, and the principles presented are applied, it will be possible to find the satisfaction and peace we all seek. The series has five more chapters and they are all just a couple of clicks away.

And well, I thought it would be a good idea to share it with you after today and at the beginning of this week. Especially, because perhaps it is timely to remind me that less is more as well as the axis where the gaze should be focused.
