So last week we celebrated Thanksgiving here in the United States. All over the web and places we saw advertising and discussing Thanksgiving and being Thankful!
In order to be thankful, it requires you to be reflective and internally considerate of your history and actions taken by yourself and others. I have much to be thankful for, and if you are reading this, so do you! We have all been granted life and breath this day and this is quite a big thing to be thankful for.
However, I wanted to use this post to look at the process of being thankful, the process of being reflective and introspective, and how this discipline could or should be implemented on a daily basis in all areas of our lives. We need to be thankful for the history, as it has taught us what we know and needed to know for today to be a successful one.
In my years of training and business, I am always amazed how so many people do not seem to learn from their experiences and apply these learned lessons and experiences to their future and future decisions. So I wonder if people truly follow the chain of thanksgiving, facing the reality of truly has occurred in the past.
This is a tough question and something that needs to be consciously considered on a daily basis especially during decisions and planning periods. So lets thoughtfully look at the reality of our past, not for judgement, but from a perspective of learning and improving how we do business, being thankful for the lessons, and grateful for the opportunities that lie before us, opportunities that we are well positioned to take advantage of, but only if we apply the lessons learnt from our past!

So what are we doing to prevent our history from repeating itself?
