“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” -Marcel Proust



Little Gems of Wisdom & Fun from Mary Lynn Ziemer


Want a fast-pass to experiencing life in an entirely new, beautiful way? The first step is simple... pay attention!


Sometimes we may start to feel that our days are similar. But, this simply isn't the case. Each day is different, it's brand new, and it brings a miracle (or multiple miracles) all of its own! It's just a matter of paying attention.


Are you present right now? Are you here, in this moment? Perfect. Now, stay for an extra minute or two and look around you. Notice all of the little things there are to be in awe of. Pay close attention to these things! Because, believe me, when you find a new autopilot of love, gratitude, and fun, your life will take off and will never be the same again!


Our day is a sum of precious moments and experiences. We have so many moments in our lives that we can more deeply experience in a joyful way. We just have to decide to give them our full attention. First, close your eyes and take a deep breath. Then do it again, and breathe even deeper. Breathe love in... and breathe it out. Relax, by dropping your shoulders. Then, open your eyes and truly see all the beauty around you.


Smile as you “see” the magnificence of what is right in front of you.


A person being beautifully human

A breathtaking sky

A lovely wildflower

The joyful flight of a bird


Stop and truly listen to sounds that bring you joy. Maybe it's music that stirs your soul, or the tranquil sounds of nature.


Even if you are just sitting in your office or home, pause as you appreciate the room you are in. Be thankful for the comforts that are available, the amazing technologies that you benefit from, the food or drinks that you have easy access to.


Begin to notice whatever it is that’s around you, right now, wherever you are. See the perfection in it. Now feel love for all of it.


Start to feel love for everything that you see. This requires that you see only the beauty and blessings it presents to you. Look for the magnificence that the moment holds.


Once you start doing this, notice how good you feel and how much calmer your mind becomes. Now you’re in the place where the magic and miracles happen!


It IS possible. Just pay close attention.


Wishing you an absolutely magical week full of love, gratitude and fun, fun, FUN!
