Your Monday Motivation quote this week: “In a pie-eating contest, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, you get to eat pie." My father in law shared this secret to happiness, and as someone who LOVES pie, I can relate.
There is too much emphasis in our society on being first, and not enough on just being in the moment.
I met someone recently who bakes & sells pies and she said when her dough isn't coming together just right, she throws it in the trash and starts over. Now, that makes sense when making great pies is your business, but as a metaphor for life, we wouldn't just throw away every missed goal or mission fallen-short. We should still try to enjoy it.
So you didn't win the trophy but did the pie taste good? Just because it isn't perfect, doesn't mean it's wasted.
