Quotes To Live By

Quote #151: Kristi Hainstock

Hi, I'm Kristi Hainstock, Licensed Psychologist and Owner of Convergence Psychological, PLC, and a member of the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition. A quote (song lyric actually) that energizes me is, "So don't you sit upon the shoreline, And say you're satisfied, Choose to chance the rapids, And dare to dance the tide", spoken by singer and songwriter, Garth Brooks.

The reason I find this quote so energizing is that it reminds me of the value and reward of setting ambitious, meaningful goals that bring joy and further the well-being and greater good of me, as an individual, and of the communities that surround me.

So, I would love for you to consider the values and goals most important to you, and the next best steps in your pursuit. This has been brought to you by the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition's Quotes to Live By Series.
