Episode 206 - Holidays

In this episode, Kellan talks about holidays. There is an astonishing diversity of holidays – each religion has their own faith-based holidays and celebrations, most countries celebrate their form of Independence Day, and some holidays similar to Thanksgiving and related symbolism. Today, we hear what they mean, and how they contribute toward Your Ultimate Life.

Kellan reminds us that holidays aren’t inherently meaningful – they are just days. However, they are days when we remember meaningful things. These are typically days when we interact with more people. When we think about the meaning of holidays, Kellan tells us we should focus more importantly on the meaning of those interactions.

We’re reminded that holidays present more opportunities to serve others and bring them joy, and in serving others, you’ll enrich your soul and theirs, and you’ll experience more of Your Ultimate Life.

Key Takeaways:

“Holidays in and of themselves are just days. They are days that we remember certain things.”
A big part of your ultimate life is remembering.
“I always believe your best days are yet to come. Your best day of all is the one you’re living right now. The future is always brighter than the past, your opportunities are always bigger than what is behind you, and that’s just the way life really works.”
“Often when we hate holidays, it’s because of some remembrance.”
“What if you stopped thinking about what holidays have been in the past? What if you stopped letting the past define you?”
“You find what you look for, and if you’re unconsciously looking for misery, you’ll find misery.”
“The meaning of something is the difference it makes. If it makes no difference, it has no meaning.”
“If my actions make no difference, then they have no meaning. If that’s true, then I need to focus on making a difference.”
“The idea that I can’t do everything so I’ll do nothing is a sure path to not having Your Ultimate Life.”
“Meaning doesn’t happen, it’s created by the difference we choose make.”
“Taking responsibility for the difference that I choose to create is a joyful opportunity that I have.”
“If you’re thinking about what to do this holiday season, let me suggest you focus on service and love.”
