Stepping or running forward

Sometimes your life can feel like this

Other times it can feel like you are flying through it, gaining progress at break neck speed..

The key isn’t the pace, but the consistency of stride. And the passion you attach to either scenario. We need to love the process, love the steps forward no matter if we gain a lot of ground with each movement. Love yourself a d the process unconditionally!

Have a lovely day!!

Greatness of character

“The inside out approach says if you want to have a happy marriage, be the kind of person who generates positive energy and sidesteps negative energy rather than empowering it. If you want to have a more pleasant, cooperative teenager, be a more understanding, empathetic, consistent, loving parent. If you want to have more freedom, more latitude in your job, be a more responsible, and more helpful, and more contributing employee. If you want to be trusted, be trustworthy. If you want to secondary greatness of recognize talent, focus first on the primary greatness of character”-Steven R. Covey “The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People”

Ask yourself the right questions :-)

“But it’s not the external voice that will break you down. It’s what you tell yourself that matters…we are all our own worst haters and doubters because doubt is a natural reaction to any bold attempt to change your life for the better.”-David Groggins

We don’t consciously berate ourselves, but it does happen quite passively. If we are not arming ourselves with positive self-talk, the negative voices run the roost. We need to arm ourselves. Ask yourself some questions in the morning: who needs my A game today? Why am I the best doctor/baker/flight attendant for those I get to serve? How do I show I am a compassionate person daily? The great thing about these questions is they beg a positive answer :-).

INTENTION

service-1a
I love this inspirational message Jessica shared with us today. GIVE with giving in mind 🙂
Serve for service’s sake:)
“We are most helpful when our care comes without attachment to an outcome.
Since others can pick up on the underlying energetic intention of our care, we are therefore much more nurturing when we act according to a loving and caring purpose. Assisting others in this way today will allow you to serve from your heart, and you will find that the love you give will have greater power to heal others.”

Receiving

In a short meditation this morning, the speaker discussed the act of receiving.

It got me thinking a bit.

We are all pretty good at receiving things everyday.

We receive the breaths our body takes. We receive the sunlight on our face, the coffee into our mouths.

However, many of us are not adept at receiving others’ praise and thanks.

We push it off “No problem.” “It was nothing.”

Instead of actually receiving their “Thank you” and saying “You are very welcome.”

When we push it off, we may think we are being humble, but in fact we are denying them the ability to give their gift of thanks to us.

We are taking that gift and throwing it into the fire.

Be cognizant of accepting (graciously) the gratitude of others. Give them the gift of acceptance.

Thank you!
