"Notes" of An Elder

The world is not here to serve me. I am here to serve the world.

August 18, 2023

We’re excited to announce the launch of The Daily Coach Network — coming this September. See details below.

Nothing in life is of any value unless it is shared with others.

"Notes" of An Elder is a depository of pertinent information, knowledge and wisdom. Available weekly will be an elder's "thinking menu" for your use. Enjoy this bounty.

  • You can only improve what you control ― yourself.

  • The world is not here to serve me. I am here to serve the world.

  • Make people smarter by taking them seriously.

  • People grow together with love and appreciation, not blame, judgment, and criticism.

  • We have around 60,000 thoughts per day and most of these thoughts are negative.

  • The person who gets the most out of forgiving is the forgiver.

  • We can gain a lifetime of knowledge yet never see the wisdom in it.

Life's Basic Questions

  • Who?

  • What?

  • When?

  • Where?

  • How?

  • Making excuses can be traced back to one of these reasons: uncertainty, fear, or lack of purpose.

  • Social media enables people to take justice into their own hands with accountability, evidence, and due process.

  • Note To Self: Accept yourself as a good person who makes mistakes.

  • Your thoughts can't injure anyone but your words and actions can.

  • Treat your failures as practice shots.

  • Focus on the good, and the good gets better.

  • Life's fulfillment lies in the journey rather than in reaching a specific destination.
