My husband says that there are three elements to his Recipe for Success:

1. A deep stretch in the shower every morning (sans leg warmers)

2. His daily flossing session

3. Facial moisturizer (non-fragrant is the key here)

Seems simple, but it works for him (and Olivia certainly seems happy as pie). These three tasks make him feel good about life. They give him a spring in his step every day.

Our conversation got me thinking: if I could sum up my Recipe for Success into three key elements, what would they be? At first I thought: Love like crazy, Laugh loudly once a day, and Healthy living. That’s more a list of goals than a recipe for success. But close…

Then my daily routine came to mind: Kiss & hug my baby boy Griffon over a great cup o’ hearty Joe, clear my desk by noon, and watch one of my favorite shows (Ugly Betty, The Office, Lost, 24, or  just about anything on HGTV).

I realized that I have to re-evaluate what “Recipe for Success” really means. So, to help me in my cause please share YOUR Recipe for Success… without judgment and without self editing… and pass it on to me. I’d love to hear them!

At the end of every month, we’ll have a winner: The Recipe for Success of the Month. All RR Members will vote on the Best Of… so share!
