Eliminate Fear of Failure! @natashabdnfield sings "Unwritten" & Teaches us New Ways to Look at the World

"I break tradition, Sometimes my tries, Are outside the lines, We've been conditioned, To not make mistakes, But I Can't live that way"

The first time I heard Natasha Bedingfield perform "Unwritten" I knew that it was going to become one of my theme songs.  There are a number of great thoughts throughout the lyrics of this song.  Keep reading to get more.

Do You Live a "Cats in the Cradle" Life?

"When you comin' home dad?
I don't know when, but we'll get together then son, You know we'll have a good time then"

These lyrics are from a 1974 hit song by Harry Chapin - Cats in the Cradle.  Ever since I was a young person listening to this song, I've been impacted by the lyrics.  I've said it before and I'll say it again!  I REFUSE for this song to represent how I live my life.  What about you?  

If I could save time in a bottle, the first thing that I'd like to do

"But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with"

I've loved this song since I was young, and still do.  It reminds us that time is fragile.  In his song, Croce Time management has been sung about for years.  Here, the late Jim Croce sang about how he wished he could bottle time in his 1973 hit Time in a Bottle.  We know we can't really bottle time, but what if we could?

Introducing - Singing Saturday!

I have shared before that Music inspires me!  There are a slew of different kinds of music listened to around the world and different types of music have different impacts.  Anyone that stops by my office unexpectedly will often find the music blaring and me singing at the top of my lungs.  Why not share that fun with others?  I'm starting a new segment I am calling SINGING SATURDAY!
