Late Monday I ordered some product from the US.
Now, as many of our Canadian readers know, when we order from the US we have to go through the whole customs clearance procedure. It can be lengthy and costly. In this case the product is SO much cheaper to purchase from the States it is worth the duty and brokerage fees.
One of the things that amazes me when I order this way is how I can track the shipment. I only have to click a number link and voila, there it is, my package winging its way towards our office. This is fast, efficient and modern.
So, what is the point? The point is sometimes don't we wish people had a "tracking" number for their progress in life?
What if you could click a button and see if they are still reading, growing, and learning, or are they just in a vegetative state letting life pass them by glued to the boob tube?
If we were to click your number what would it say? When was the last time you read a book on self improvement, attended a seminar on learning a new thing, listened to an audio that gave you a different perspective?
Something to mull over during the upcoming holiday season and the dreaded New Year resolution activity huh?
Why not set a goal to read more and watch TV less.
You won't be disappointed.
I know I am going to and now I am accountable to you!
