Step Back

Take a step back,
evaluate what is important,
and enjoy life.
- Teri Garr

It allows us to step back from an event,
deal with it and then move on.

At some point everything gets a little stale
and you have to step away from it.

Winners have the ability to step back
from the canvas of their lives
like an artist gaining perspective.

Put some distance between yourself
and whatever is concerning you.
Distance in space or time
always creates a new perspective.
Take time to contemplate -
away from the opinions and influence of others -
what you really want
and what you believe to be important in your life.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
