Jackpot 

Posted on by philipdodson

If we feel that something is missing from our lives, its unlikely we’ll find the answer in a machine full of marketing promises of a shower of money. 

Yet people queued in their hundreds for a chance to win something. 

If you’re alive you have everything you need and appreciate what you have, not what you don’t. 

We have all the opportunities we will ever need right in front of us. 

It’s a choice whether we look for them and work to realise them. 

Money solves nothing. 

Shortcuts are sold to us with the fake promise of a certain ‘x’. 

Commitment to our dreams leaves our destiny firmly in our control and with it comes a fulfilling purpose to our life.

Each of us has already won the jackpot. It’s today, now, our life. 

Enjoy it.  

Build value

Posted on by philipdodson

‘Where’s the money in that?’ is the cry of people who need a salary and are willing to exchange their soul for money to buy trinkets.

Spend your life building value, which as it builds will provide you with all the resources you need to live a meaningful and abundant life.

Value takes longer to build but is so much more rewarding, longer-lasting and meaningful to our life.

It’s because you build long-lasting value by doing something you care about, something that matters and therefore you will create your best work. It will do the same to the people who love what you do and that’s why value is more valuable than a salary or making money.
