    Thank you, dear Sandra! I've gained so much insight from you since I discovered your site about a year ago. Today's message was powerful! As usual, you presented it with gentle encouragement, helping us to bring out the best in ourselves by looking for creative possibilities instead of negative road blocks. I'm now 75 years young, a piano teacher since 1981. This school year a colleague asked me to take over some of her students and I said yes, adding six new students to my weekly teaching schedule. Why say, "Yes, but.... I'm already at retirement age?" Our insights as seniors come precisely from the experiences we have lived through - our successes, failures, and challenges! In 2015, I had a stroke that could have ended my life at the piano. But my wise and inspiring neurologist spoke words that changed my future life: "It's not your arm, your hand or your fingers that are injured. It's your brain, and you can rewire the neurons if you do the work!" As soon as he left my hospital room, I started doing mental exercises to retrain the muscles of my left hand! Eventually I saw improvement in tiny increments. I reasoned that if I could move my hand even the tiniest bit, the possibility for more movement was there, just waiting to be coaxed outside. And my perseverance paid off! It was probably the hardest work I have ever done - invisible mental work that looked like I was doing nothing! During the COVID lockdown I saw and listened to workshops, masterclasses, concerts and other musical inspiration online. After watching a workshop on piano technique, I signed up for online ZOOM classes with a Polish teacher who inspired me to continue regaining my former skills. And just a few weeks ago I participated in my sixth ZOOM recital with other pianists from cities all over the world! Say YES! It can bring new experiences that will give you the joy and freedom to become who you truly are!

      You are amazing. My mom had a stroke and it was nothing but down hill after that. If only I could have found the right words of encouragement for her as your doctor gave to you. She had just had enough, I believe.

      @@patsy6589 , I am so sorry about your mother. You are probably right in that she had reached her limit. I think my lifelong dedication to the piano is what made the difference for me. My parents were professional musicians so it's in my blood and somehow I was able to do the work. But I recognize that there are different levels of injury in terms of a stroke.

    I grew up in a "yabut" family - having my dreams and goals squelched with a litany of "yabuts" - what you call "yes, but". I missed out on many opportunities over my lifetime, and have many regrets, but I've learned that I can no longer listen to the "yabuts", and must pay attention to the "yes, ands"! Thank you for sharing your wisdom, along with the lovely tour!

    Hi Nana Sandra. "She's just a Nashville Girl." The other day Justin said to us that "Worry" is the greatest sin in his church. That we should always look forward to God and His Promise of Greater things. If we are always worrying (The BUT !!) we will never get to the promise (Yes, AND !!). If we always question and worry about what the universe is sending us, we will never see what the experience will be.

    Loss my husband three years ago at 73 … moved to new City and State … and was just last night looking at my fingernails and (didn’t look at feet as I knew nails there were awful! lol) and Googled some Salons to go to close to me … found one … and then immediately thought about it … and but entered my head! Now … learned through your new Vlog … Why Not? It would make me feel happy!
    And … happy is what I need!

I remember seeing some of the area before such a beautiful outdoor area a calm pleasant place for you to visit and especially having your cozy cottage just for you. The evening being at the Tonic concert must have been so special how fun !!! In your conversation that BUT word can definitely be a downer The AND word is the move forward so true. Such an interesting concept. You always have the best ideas to share with us. I love your videos (conversations). Have a great time in Nashville. See you soon again. ❤

    Hi Sandra Waving back at you from this side of the screen👋 I wish I could have heard about “Yes…and” when I was 17. One of the few regrets I have in my life is not having the confidence to take a job as a tour guide at Universal Studios in the early 70s. The tours of the backlots used for filming were a new attraction and the Studio was hiring “tour guides” to ride on the trams and stand up in front with a microphone to announce the various sites and the film history that were on the route. My dad had secured the position for me because they wanted young women to wear the cute tour guide uniform. Dad had confidence in me that I could handle the public speaking and converse with any random group who came on board, but it was too scary to me. When he asked me if I wanted to do it, I said , “Yes-but…” he encouraged me to think it over as it would have been a great opportunity to get out in the world and grow the very self confidence I was lacking- but I said no. I ended up working in a department store - that felt less intimidating- I actually had learn to use the same skills- but if I could do it over, that tour guide job sure would have been exciting. Now at 73, I definitely look to say Yes and - whenever possible.
    Thanks for taking us with you to your son’s lovely home❤

    It looks so peaceful there ! I tend to be a timid person but years ago realized that life presents limited number of opportunities - you can act on them or let them pass you by - usually to your own detriment . A man years ago said to me 'if someone offers you something you take it' as I was declining his gift as my narcissistic father stood beside me . I had been taught that I was unworthy of others' kindness and opportunity . Since then I've grasped onto many things thrown my way and have experienced more in life than I ever thought possible . I've also endured much criticism by family members for doing so . Naysayers need to be weeded out .

    I am 67 and I have always been more of a realist. Along with that however, comes a lot of yes, but.
    I recently had to face a total knee replacement. For a year or more aĺ I could see was the yes, but. I finally had to Chand that around to saying, yes but what if I will be better off because of it. I think alot of us could attest to the fact that most of the things we have worried about never happened anyway. What a shame to alow doubt to take up space in our minds. Enjoyed this video and love your surroundings especially hearing the circadian chirping away. This is a beautiful time of the year right now here in OH.❤
