Do you remember the drought maps?
Here is the legend:

Two Dolly Parton Quotes
This is the first one:
You only get one life and you’re going to burn the days either way, so the real question is: What excites you and interests you? What makes you feel curious and alive, perhaps even joyful? What is so “worth it” that you’re not worried about the tradeoffs, the hard work, the hassle?
Follow your enthusiasm.
And this is the second:
I was born with a happy heart. I’ve always tried to let that shine even during my dark times. I’m one of those people who, even if things are not right, goes about trying to make it as right as I can rather than just lying around on my ass and wallowing in it all day. I think, “Well, I can either do this or I can do that.” I choose to get up and try to make it better if I can…
Of course, I try to improve every day. If there’s a better outfit, I want to wear it. If there’s a better song, I want to write it. If there’s a better record, I want to record it. If there’s a better movie, I want to make it. I will continue to be as good as I can be. And I intend to keep coming up with new ideas all the time.
The second one is more ambitious than I am. But that first one – yes! My self improvement is simply trying to focus my energy and my attention on the things I value. No worldly achievements, just gently trying to say aligned with what’s important to me.
What about you?
