Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy

Welcome to Day 675 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom

Responsibility For Our Future – Wisdom Unplugged

Thank you for joining us for our 5 days per week wisdom and legacy building podcast. This is Day 675 of our trek, and it is time for a 3-minute mini-trek called Wisdom Unplugged. This short nugget of wisdom includes an inspirational quote with a little additional content for today’s trek. Consider this your vitamin supplement of wisdom for today. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget.

Responsibility For Our Future

Today’s quote is from George Bernard Shaw, and it is, “We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future.”

It is so easy for us to dwell on the past, both the good and the bad, and romanticize it in our minds. Although we should learn from the past, we should never allow it to be an excuse for abdicating our responsibilities of today and tomorrow. Taking personal responsibility for every action and decision that we make each day is a sign that we are wise and continue to grow in wisdom.

As the wisest man who ever lived told him, King Solomon tells us in Ecclesiastes 7:10, “Don’t long for ‘the good old days.’ This is not wise.”

That’s a wrap for today’s Wisdom Unplugged quote. If you would like free access to my database of over 10,000 inspirational quotes, the link is available on the main page of Wisdom-Trek.com. As you enjoy these nuggets of wisdom, encourage your friends and family to join us and then come along tomorrow for another day of our Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.

If you would like to listen to any of our past treks or read the Wisdom Journal, they are available at Wisdom-Trek.com. You can also subscribe on iTunes or Google play so that each day’s trek will be downloaded automatically.

Thank you for allowing me to be your guide, mentor, and most importantly, your friend as I serve you through the Wisdom-Trek podcast and journal each day.

As we take this trek of life together, let us always:

1. Live Abundantly (Fully)
2. Love Unconditionally
3. Listen Intentionally
4. Learn Continuously
5. Lend to others Generously
6. Lead with Integrity
7. Leave a Living Legacy Each Day

This is Guthrie Chamberlain reminding you to Keep Moving Forward, Enjoy Your Journey, and Create a Great Day Every Day! See you tomorrow for Wisdom Wednesday!
