the other day i was calling a client and got her voice mail message. with her texan drawl, she ended with "make it a great day." my head did a mini spin. by substituting the ubiquitous 'have' for 'make' - grammatically and cognitively shifting from a passive verb to an actionable one - i realized that hey, great days don't just happen - they are made. by me. i have the power and ability to really make a great day happen. i know this is a simple realization but don't you think making is far more fun that having? so make it a happy weekend.
