Smiles Per Mile

Are you living your life with a focus on MPG or SPM?

My career in multifunctional (R&D-ENG-MFG) organizations taught me to approach work with a lean methodology and profit optimization mindset. I have learned the opposite is true for life. We only have a spark of existence. Why not live it to the fullest extent possible?

A mentor once told me to live each assignment to the fullest no matter how short because the future is always unknown. This led me to a dream house in France, a 3-story penthouse with jacuzzi on roof in Singapore, a Homearama house in Cincinnati, a House Hunters pad in Cape Girardeau, and an Ocean Front home in Laguna Beach... which of course influenced choices in transportation... Lamborghini Gallardo engine Audi, Autobiography Range Rover, v12 Mercedes AMG...

What is within your control and brings you joy?

Choose:

Giving vs Taking

Abundance vs Scarcity

Vulnerability vs Pride

Empathy vs Judgement...

Cheers to living your life in SMILES PER MILE (SPM) as opposed to MILES PER GALLON (MPG)!'
