“How do you want to be remembered?”That was the question I asked a recent guest on our Live Inspired Podcast.Seth Godin is one of the greatest marketers, thought leaders and influencers of our time. He has shaped entire markets and the manner in which we communicate with one another today. At a more personal level, he has profoundly influenced and amplified my work.So how does a person like Seth – with more than 20 international best-selling books, millions of dollars, global respect and admiration from his peers, a massive, loyal online following, two children who honor him, and a wife he still adores 35 years into their marriage – want to be remembered?Seth replied he wants to be remembered as someone who ‘made a ruckus.’He then elaborated on what it means to make a ruckus:‘To shine a light; do generous, remarkable work; teach people to teach other people; and leave things better than they found them.’➡️ [The entire conversation with Seth was remarkable. I strongly encourage you to check it out to be inspired to make a ruckus in your life, too. Link in comments.]So, how can we make a ruckus?Turns out it isn’t about doing the big things. Making a ruckus is really about doing little things, consistently well. It’s about using your talents in ways that amplify others. It’s about staying motivated to do just that. I want to share with you a framed poem I recently saw on my friend’s desk. Use it as a tool to help you stay motivated to be a ruckus maker, think about how you want to be remembered and most importantly: Actually show up for others in ways that matter to them:➡️ This poem will motivate you to do do little things, consistently well, to benefit others.One day, when you are in Heaven,someone will come up to you and thank youfor the way you touched his or her life.The person’s words will take you completely by surprise.Soon, another person will seek you out,and then another, and another.As you listen to each one’s story,you will begin to discover all the ways that God used your lifewhen you were unaware of it.You will find that it was most often not through the big things that you did,but through the small and simple things:a spoken word that was not planned,a spontaneous act of kindness,a loving attitude,or a caring smile.To your joy, you will discover that in all these ways and more,God used you to deposit an eternal measure of His loveinto many needy hearts.My friends, want to make a ruckus through your life?Today, don’t underestimate the power of small and simple things, done well. Remember the influence of a simple spoken word shared in love. Embrace the transformative nature within a spontaneous act of kindness, a loving attitude or a caring smile.All little things that are certain to elevate your day. And those lucky enough to be part of it.Let the ruckus begin.This is your day. Live Inspired. J ... See MoreSee Less

Guess who turned 1 today???That's right, In Awe celebrates one year of being published, being read, and touching lives around the United States & the world! Although social distancing requirements made having a large party impossible today, we did celebrate with the typical first year cake ....singing of happy birthday ... and then the joyful gift of face-planting into that cake!Thanks for celebrating with us today. Thanks, also, during a year of profound divisiveness, challenges and isolation for still believing in the message that our very lives are gifts, that we are far better together, that the foundation remains firm, and that the best is yet to come. This is your day. STAY In Awe. And Live Inspired. JPS: In celebration of National Teacher Appreciation Week, please tag your favorite teacher. One teacher will receive not only the book that enjoyed the chocolate cake [it's been thoroughly cleaned!!!], but additional appreciation inside. J ... See MoreSee Less
