years important details
The years... when I pursued the inner images were the most important time of my life. Everything else is to be derived from this. It began at that time, and the later details hardly matter anymore.

But the numinous beginning, which contained everything was then. Carl Jung

years bridges events
Intentional living is the bridge to significance. At the end of every year, I take time out to reflect and evaluate the events of the previous year - what went well and what needed improvement.

Significance asks, 'How can I add value to others?' It is your intention that lends itself to significance. John C. Maxwell
