EP – 172 Live Life In Crescendo

EP - 172 Live Life In Crescendo Greg Payne 59:14

Cynthia Covey Haller joins us to discuss the book Live Life In Crescendo, which she and her late father, Steven Covey, wrote. We discuss the idea for the book and how it came about. Cynthia shares with us how her father thought that expanding a person’s life was the eighth habit that would lead to a successful life.

For those unfamiliar with the musical term, Crescendo means increasing loudness or intensity. The opposite of Crescendo is Diminuendo, which means a decrease in loudness or intensity.

It is great to hear Cynthia’s story about how she and her father came to start this book together and the path it took for Cynthia to complete and then publish it. You are going to enjoy listening to the fantastic stories that Cynthia shares about everyday people who chose to live in Crescendo and not diminuendo.

If you feel stuck or have plateaued in your life, reading this book and listening to Cynthia will inspire you to look around you for opportunities to grow and grow your significance. You might feel that you are not wealthy enough or have enough influence to have much of an impact on your family, community, or a cause that you feel deeply about, but as the examples in this book point out, you need to start with yourself and the world around you.

Live Life in Crescendo calls on all of us as we reach the second half of life to look to live our lives for a larger purpose. If that task falls to you, that purpose could be to raise your grandchildren. It could also be volunteering at a local reading center or other organization that needs your unique talents and gifts.

Living a life in Crescendo also means continuing to grow yourself, your talents, and your abilities. This can be accomplished by taking up a new hobby, starting a new profession, or taking classes at your local university or community college. There are many ways to grow yourself, such as pouring your increase into the cups of those around you who need your wisdom, wit, and experience.

After you have listened to this conversation, please share it with three family members or friends who would enjoy listening to Cynthia talk about the process of writing this important book, as well as those who need to hear this message of not fading away but building from where ever they are into a Crescendo.
