In our "Pursuit of Happiness", is it considered failure when we feel sad or mad at times? What makes everyday people stick through the more challenging times life brings? How do we get ourselves on track with so many different criticisms changing our perspectives all the time? I believe communities evolve when we share the lessons that help keep us going through the more challenging experiences. Hope in our future being better is what keeps us going, and there are different ways to find that hope. It is our duty to share our unique knowledge to help others avoid mistakes we are familiar with, as well as utilize our successful strategies. This is how we make the next year, next decade, next generation better than this one. I’ve created this podcast as a direct line to help lift as we climb. Join me, your host, Anthony Thomas (www.AnthonyJThomas.com), as we dive deep with some philosophy, cruise the surface with some jokes, and share actionable things to use in our lives that aim to bring more confident and self-approving days ahead (however many or few we each have left). We all have a purpose to find, and sometimes that's tricky to locate. This podcast is all about the pursuit of a fulfilled life, rooted in optimism and building healthy community. So join for this journey, and when you hear something that hits home for you, don't just keep it to yourself. Share the information and let your thoughts and feelings build stronger bonds with others who can also benefit from the information. Maybe you'll share your own story and help someone else out on their journey. Much Love, A.T.
