Dear Reader:

I realize that this is a holiday week and for many of us, taking time to think during our time away from our jobs is an absolute no-no. You spend all week thinking, problem solving – you need a day to just relax and refresh for the weeks and months ahead.

But there are those of us who never take a day off; we’re always looking for ways to improve ourselves. Today, we seem to be at no loss for ways to do that. From an article about unusual jobs that pay well, and another that suggests that we can increase our brain power simply by exercising our minds as we do our bodies, I have read three important pieces this morning that could lead to self improvement.

And who couldn’t use a bit of improvement?

This third one, How to Master Anything, at Any Age is written by Donna Sapolin, vice president, editorial director and general manager of Next Avenue, a wonderful website that offers outstanding articles, particularly for those of us in the “second halves of our lives.” Their work often suggests ways to get better at tasks mundane and exciting – whatever your interests may be. It’s a brilliant site.

I offer this Daily Dose to inspire and encourage self improvement. Even though I’m working on two major projects that keep me quite busy, I am still looking for that transformational moment when my heart and mind blend together and say, “Eureka! This is it!”

I will keep searching and learning along the way and when I come across something that I believe will make your life better, I’ll share with you.
