We are experiencing some truly historic moments. Politics and the increasingly turbulent financial markets present more fantastic headlines daily. If we allow ourselves to become engulfed by the drama, it can seem as if the most important decisions in our lives are being made in some distant place, in rooms to which we have not been invited. I do not wish to diminish the influence and impact of these decisions. However, we must remember that the most important decisions in our lives are the ones we make every moment about how we will respond to the opportunities and challenges before us.

The ability to effectively respond to the circumstances of our lives is one of the most courageous and transformational skills we can develop. This is true because when we embrace our lives as they present themselves, we grant ourselves access to the creative and powerful capabilities that have found solutions for the human challenges throughout time. No matter what circumstance we may find ourselves in, our path to a great outcome is always found by choosing to engage our abilities rather than to blame and criticize. When we embrace this response-ability, we tap into an unlimited reserve of ideas and options that are unavailable to us while our minds are clouded by fear and anger.

The Legacy Forum is committed to helping the community of Gainesville become not only the physically healthiest community in America, but also to become the most consciously aware and proactively responsible community. Our strong desire is to be a resource for both individuals and businesses to help all of us expand our capacity to make choices and take actions that lead to more productive and fulfilling lives. To ensure this outcome, we have created three free thought provoking and skill enhancing programs that inspire and enable us to express our true potential.

As the external environment seemingly becomes more volatile, it is vital that we raise our awareness and abilities. We must discover how to best engage our unique strengths and passions and to contribute them to the world in a way that adds value to others and rewards us for our efforts. It is time that we reclaim our power by investing in the one asset that can always appreciate, ourselves.

These FREE TRANSFORMATIONAL SEMINARS entitled, Who Are You?, What Do You Want?, and How Will You Achieve It? are presented Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings at 5:00 and 6:30 PM at the GHFC main facility located at 4820 Newberry Road in Gainesville.
