Life carpet-bombs us all, every day. Bills, problems, arguments, road rage. Whatever. It's hard to be positive in a world that gets faster every day, demands more, gives less. But we can all seek out joy and authenticity, says Skip Archimedes, who's overcome massive obstacles in his life. Stop just surviving and thrive.
Archimedes' seemingly limitless positive energy and relentless smile evidences this joy. He's warm, intuitive and his mission in life is to bring his message of purpose and of being in charge of our realities to everyone on the planet. He's at mission South Africa right now.
"It was getting harder and harder for humans to live a life that they love," he said. "Loving themselves, loving their body, loving what they contribute, these are essential, yet so many of us struggle with these concepts."
He cited the overwhelming negativity permeating most people's thoughts. Almost 90% of the average 65 000 thoughts a day are negative, he said. It is a statistic he said that shows how far we have drifted from a mindset that nurtures positivity and growth.
