Welcome to a new adventure! “Measured Lives” was an idea born in my heart a few years ago and I’m thrilled about what I believe will be an incredible journey of learning and living. The idea began when a former boss wrote on my performance evaluation, “Michelle’s words are measured, which means she thinks before she speaks.” I liked that because I want to be intentional–with my words and my actions.

I want what I say and do to have meaning and purpose and impact. I want my words and actions to come from core convictions of who I am and the reason I do what I do, defining my life, work, and relationships with others.

Life is measured in moments. When we speak and act, and react, we are essentially creating little moments, when strung together build our life.

When we know who we are and why we do what we do, our moments are measured. We live on purpose. Intentionally. By design. Measured moments then, create a measured life.

So, live in the moment, where each one is created from who you are, where you are.

I don’t know what your journey will become, but I believe you’re on the way to something great. I want to discover more about living a measured life and help others do the same; discover who they are and why they do what they do–to have a life of purpose, meaning, impact.

Since your moments matter, is there a standard by which you measure yours?
