Blissfully Dissatisfied and Fit

Fit as a Fiddle iconHappy Fit as a Fiddle Friday Peeps,

Today, I will share a few thoughts on something I heard this morning called blissfully dissatisfied. It came from a Karl Morris podcast my golfing buddy, Clas Olsson, turned me towards recently. Karl’s show is called The Brain Booster.

Blissfully Dissatisfied – Desire and appreciation – Are they mutually exclusive?

Being blissfully dissatisfied means we can appreciate and be grateful for all of the good things in our lives, but at the same time, we can strive to grow, improve, and learn.

  • When we are BLISSFULLY DISSATISFIED, we embrace powerful forces
  • We are happy today, but we have the energy to strive
  • We have the momentum to engage with the world and the world of possible
  • We set in motion the forces to get closer to our true capability

God bless you all.

NUGGETS began in the fall of 2010 when our oldest daughter left for college. (Make it a Great Monday; Stay Whole Tuesday; Woman Power Wednesday; Make Anything Thursday; and Fit as a Fiddle Friday.) All these years later, we have a UGA grad, a SCAD grad, a Fightin’ Texas Aggie grad, and 1500 nuggets. Plus, Mum and Dad up and moved to England. Those are my daughters above, and their guiding light – truly my every gPage Singletary thing.

Dear Harvey: Staying in the Game

In the end, Harvey, you left us your Little Red Book—a lifetime of lessons condensed into something small enough to fit in a pocket, yet broad enough to guide generations. These letters are my attempt, in a much humbler way, to do the same—to gather what the game has taught me so far, and to keep discovering what lies at the edges.
