Do you know what you want to achieve? How do you define success? What comes to mind when you think of that big stretch to reach for what you truly want?
Open your mind and explore what you want in your relationships, career, home-life, education, financial success, and spiritual growth.
Are you living in alignment with that goal?
Do your thoughts, feelings, and actions support the success you desire? Check your alignment and make adjustments.
As you take a moment to express gratitude for Mother Earth and to treat her with some TLC today, remember to do the same for you.
You are so special and Earth appreciates You!
Give yourself moment either in the morning or before you fall asleep.
Use your mind's eye and imagine your day unfolding just as you would like it to. See yourself getting ready for your day and fueling your body so that it feels best for you.
Imagine yourself engaging with family, friends and co-workers in a manner that brings you happiness and success. Visualize yourself enjoying a fun and relaxing evening, keeping your self-care at the top of your list.
See yourself in the picture of a perfect day unfolding. When you take 3 minutes to do this, you will experience timeless and priceless benefits in your day.
This week a similar story from a variety of coaching sessions has bubbled up. I admit, I find that since "like attracts like" there is often a theme in my work, so this is not all that unusual.
So, the story is...
My clients have been describing vividly detailed scenarios for me of precisely what they do not want to happen. Their words are do descriptive that I can see them in my minds eye, unfolding like a movie starring Meryl Streep and Vince Vaughn (odd combination!)
What I ask of them is to write a new script. What do you want to unfold in your life? How can you describe that to me with as much passion and detail? Knowing that what you think about, you bring about, making this shift will result in powerful, positive change.
Paint a new picture:
....
when your resistance lessens.
Let your guard down and discover what is waiting for you.
What do you want more of today?
What did I catch you thinking about before you read this post?
As I sat down to write, my mind was going to thoughts of: Too many chores, not enough time. How far behind I am already from yesterday's unfinished business. The pain in my hamstring that shoots through me when I land my foot...Need I say more?
I'm pretty sure your thoughts are ones of lack, worry and pain...until you shine the light on them! That's the good news. Your awareness of your thoughts and that you have the power to direct the play that is your life is liberating.
Choose good ones today, and watch them grow.
Your thoughts can be painful. You may be worried about your child's health today. You may have fear around what will happen in the future. Go ahead and feel the pain of your present thoughts.
When you find yourself dwelling on your painful thoughts, you have entered the suffering zone. Suffering is a choice. I encourage you to choose to release your suffering as it does not make you feel better or enhance your situation. To do this, visualize your suffering thoughts floating away.
Be with what is. See the good. Shift to a better feeling thought.
