Do We Practice To Enjoy Or To Survive?

Phil Hauser sent me this quote by Jim Henson of The Muppets fame.

I spend a few minutes in meditation and prayer each morning. I feel that this really helps me to start the day with a good frame of reference. As part of my prayers, I thank whoever is helping me – I’m sure somebody or something is – I express gratitude for all my blessings and I try to forgive the people that I’m feeling negative toward. I try hard not to judge anyone, and I try to bless everyone who is a part of my life, particularly anyone with whom I am having any problems.

This reminds me of the question that I ask financial advisors; Is your financial advisor practice about adding value or surviving in your business and personal life?
