I heard an interesting concept the other day. This man asked another, if he offered him $1,000,000 would he take it? The man answered, yes of course. The first man replied, what if I raised it to $10,000,000? The man said, yes of course. The first man said, but you die immediately upon receiving it. The man proclaimed, no, no, no of course not. And the first man said, so what you are telling me is that your life is worth $10,000,000? The man was dumbfounded. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that we all, or most of us have something worth $10,000,000. We should wake up every day and treat it like we are millionaires. I get so wrapped up in thought, and worry that I often forget the fact that I woke up this morning. That is something to celebrate. Whether we have all the luxuries in the world or not, we forget the most important things. We forget we have life. The world can be stacked up against you, but you are still here. Look back at all you have fought, all your struggles, and your worries. Look at all your triumphs, and failures. It's never as good as its going to get. You have got to wake up and treat each day like you have $10,000,000, and not like it's the worse thing that has ever happened. The fact that you took a breath. Live your life like you are a millionaire.
