Who will cry when you die @bloomteacher

Think About Your Ideal 
Neighborhood 
One of the things I have done along my quest for self – knowledge is to make a list of all the people I wished 
lived next door to me. These are men and women from both the past and present who I would love to be able to 
drop in on for a quick cup of tea every once in a while and share a laugh with from time to time. The every act 
of listening your “ideal neighbors” will connect you to many of the values and traits you respect the most in 
people and, in doing so, help you to discover about yourself as a person. It is also a fun way to spend 30 minutes 
of your life. 
 
Here are some of the people on my list: 
•  Norman Vincent Peale, the famed author of The Power of Positive Thinking 
•  Henry David Thoreau, the great American philosopher and the author of Walden, one of my favorite 
books 
•  Baltasar Gracian, the Jesuit scholar who became one of Spain’s greatest writers 
•  Billie Holiday, the great jazz singer 
•  Nelson Mandela, the freedom fighter 
•  Og Mandino, self – help author of such classics as A Better Way to Live and University of Success 
•  Mother Teresa, the respected humanitarian 
•  Richard Branson, the British tycoon and adventurer 
•  Pierre Elliott Trudeau, the colorful Canadian prime minister. 
•  Miles Davis, the legendary trumpeter 
•  Muhammad Ali, the world champion boxer 
•  Benjamin Franklin, the renowned statesman 
 
 


Take a moment right now to jot down some of the people whom you wished lived on your street. Then think 
about the qualities that make these men and women so admirable and how you might foster such qualities in 
your own life. The first step to realizing your life vision is defining it. And the first step to becoming the person 
you want to be is identifying the traits of the person you want to be.
