"Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself."
—Russian novelist and short story writer Leo Tolstoy (born September 9, 1828)
September 2020 fearlessly transforms the new age of living and working in a hostile, demanding environment, acting out the blueprint set in motion by the chaos of the preceding months.
The unyielding men and women—serious artists, scientists, and builders—born in September identify themselves with their work ethic and communication skills.
Focusing on the task before them, some of these multi-talented individuals are seemingly aware of the potential consequences of their disruptive, game-changing thoughts, words, and actions. When that's the case, all hell—or productivity—can break loose!
One such example is American actor, writer, and comedian Lily Tomlin (born September 1, 1939 in Detroit, Michigan), an artist who changes herself moment to moment to the delight of her television, film, stage, and virtual audience. Currently, she stars as Frankie Bergstein on the Netflix series Grace and Frankie.
I witnessed Tomlin's talent firsthand. Back in 1960–1961, I had the pleasure of being served lunch several times at Howard Johnson's Times Square restaurant while I was performing as an 18-year-old Radio City Music Hall Rockette in New York City.
I was somewhat confused at first by the way my server, a confrontational waitress named Mary Jean (later to become Lily Tomlin), spoke to me as she took my order and later brought it to my table. Then I realized she had to be doing a stand-up comedy routine, using me as her audience! I asked if she was an actress performing for me—realizing she would never last as a waitress!
"No, my dream is to become the head waitress at Howard Johnson's!" Then she said,"With all that stage makeup on, are you a dancer at Radio City?" She admitted that many who worked there came for a quick bite to eat between shows.
Productive game-changer Tim Scott, United States Senator from South Carolina (born September 19, 1965), is the only African American to serve in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. He created "Opportunity Zones" with bi-partisan leaders, spurring opportunity in distressed communities.
Perhaps the introspective, creative words of Florence Scovel Shinn (born September 24, 1871 in Camden, New Jersey), American writer and gifted teacher of New Thought, best describe the energies of September, 2020: "The game of life is a game of boomerangs. Our thoughts, deeds and words return to us sooner or later with astounding accuracy."
