| SOME YIELD SIGNS SCREAM RED |
YIELD
When I think of the word YIELD, I think of the yellow triangle sign
above, which basically means, pause and look both ways prior to continuing with
your motor vehicle. YIELD in this sense
means to give the right of way to other traffic. The word YIELD also means to concede in an argument
and let the opposition win. In the banking
industry the word YIELD is used to describe the percentage that people make on
his/her invested dollars. YIELD is
important to you today in each of the above scenarios. Where is it in your life that you need to
pause and look in all directions before proceeding with your idea or plan? Are you examining all possibilities and
making sure that you are on the right of way with your goal? Next, how many arguments are you currently in
conversations about? Why is it so
important that you win the argument?
What is the worse thing that would happen if you YIELDED to the
opposition? Do you find yourself refusing to YIELD just in general
principle? If so, what is the pay-off
for holding out? If your personal life is
fraught with discontent in relationships because you are always trying to prove
your point, then maybe it is time to YIELD and let go. How much of your daily life is YIELDING a
high return on happiness? Are you
investing in decisions, activities, relationships, and personal time in
meaningful ways that are YIELDING you a crop of happiness? Get the best YIELD
out of your day.
