Leading Thoughts for July 3, 2025
IDEAS shared have the power to expand perspectives, change thinking, and move lives. Here are two ideas for the curious mind to engage with:
Louis L’Amour on creative living:
“If you want to be creative, go where your questions lead you. Do things. Have a wide variety of experiences and take field trips to distant places. Reach outside of your everyday sphere of influence; it keeps you being too provincial. We can’t learn anything from experiences we’ve never had. Life is too long not to do it right, not to participate — we end up dying before we live. There’s a lot of seconds between birth and death when you’ve withdrawn from the game. To die before we live is agonizing. Life is too long not to do it right.”

Josh Axe on living by principle:
“If you want to enjoy success in your relationships, career, and health, choose a path that is lined with principles. An unprincipled person is like a captain trying to steer a ship without navigation, lost at sea. Without any truth or standards to guide them, they lack wisdom. Without wisdom, they make poor choices. Making poor choices reinforces poor character.”
Look for these ideas every Thursday on the Leading Blog. Find more ideas on the LeadingThoughts index.
