“We have a right to the work alone, not to its fruits.”

Life in the world of Angel Birthdays is busier than ever. We have a new cover and our sweet book is starting to receive more love than ever! I’m so proud and excited to announce that on the back of our Angel Birthdays book, we will have amazing endorsement quotes from the following people:

Mark Victor Hansen, Co-creator of the “Chicken Soup for the Soul” book series

Josh Shipp, Teen Behavior Expert

&

Deborah Tillman, America’s Supernanny on Lifetime Television

Words can not even express my gratitude for these people. I am so grateful for their support and their belief in the true healing power of Angel Birthdays.

There is so much going on right now. The opportunity to get ahead of myself is so tempting, but I am trying very hard not to think about the future. To keep myself present, I continue to focus on this quote from the Bhagavad Gita:

  “You have a right to the work alone, not to its fruits.” -Bhagavad Gita 2-47

I wanted to share this with you because I feel like this is true whether we are launching something new, parenting a child or working in an office. We are all here to help one another, and we are all a part of a bigger plan. We should never do the work in order to obtain a certain result, e.g. a raise, a great report card from our child, or even amazing book sales.

We are simply in charge of the work laid before us. The results will take care of themselves.  No matter how you fill your day, you are doing God’s work. To quote Panache Desai (when he was on my favorite show ever- Super Soul Sunday)

“Work is our excuse to share God’s love with whomever we encounter.

We are all doing Divine work because we are all exactly where God wants us to be.”

Thank you for doing your part and sharing your love everyday no matter where you find yourself!

Have a beautiful day!
