Creating Your Own Heaven on Earth

One of the best quotes I've ever heard was by Wayne Dyer. He said: "Heaven on Earth is a choice you must make, not a place you must find."
I love that. That is my personal quest, to define what heaven on earth looks like in my eyes. Then go to work making that vision a reality.
I don't believe people do this at all, or they don't believe that it is possible. Of course, no one really knows what heaven really looks like. And I really don't care to get into any religious debates about whether or not heaven exists. I'm just saying that its definitely something that is realistic.
My boss at work (right now I work at Gold's Gym in downtown Manhattan) tells me that I need to think outside the box. This is coming from a guy who weighs 100 pounds more than I do (I weigh 175). But anyways, thinking outside the box can be applied to achieving heaven on earth. Why should we settle for mediocrity? That's just not me, I'd rather be dead then to settle for an average boring life.
