On the wall above my desk I have a question to focus my attention and remind me of what’s important. Some days, I’m very present to it and it guides my thinking and actions. Other days, I seem to be oblivious to it…until something causes me to “see” it again and refocus. It works 100% of the time and I rely upon it because some…
“You often feel tired, not because you’ve done too much, but because you’ve done too little of what sparks a light in you.” This was sent during an EOS session as we discussed Delegate and Elevate.® Thanks @ginathorson. Coincidental? I think not. If you’re going through the motions, the days are blurred, you’re not finding joy in your work and little things are big…
Do you have perspective on your thinking? One of the most effective ways to gain clarity is to journal. When you do so, you pour your thinking onto a piece of paper and have the ability to observe yourself and your thinking in a way no other practice offers. There are all kinds of roadblocks that arise when you begin writing including: …
How are you thinking of this holiday season? Is it better, worse or the same? As many of you know, I’m focused and intent on making this year special regardless of circumstance. What I’ve determined is I need to be different with regard to what our traditions mean. It can’t and won’t look the same for our family. That is not the same as it being…
It’s amazing to recognize stress leaving your body. When it’s visceral, and when shared with others it’s as if there’s a collective sense of relief, as if you’ve been waiting to exhale. Following an experience like this, there is space. Space to create, realign, envision the future and heal. 2020 has been a challenging year to say the least. Breathe in the space of…
Think about it. As our world has evolved, we have to be better in new ways. Working in a more delivery-based world, what I’ve found is service and follow through are at the top of my list. One of my favorite places to purchase clothing recently sent my purchase to an old address…twice. I’ve ordered from them and fixed my address in my profile, talked with…
Do you ever have sleepless nights? Me too, only not all of them are bad. I awoke early one day last week and decided I should arise rather than try to return to sleep, it just wasn’t working. I wasn’t terribly restless, just done sleeping. It happens that way when you get the right amounts of what you need, sleep, water, food, exercise, human…
Appreciation. Many of us forget to express it often enough. For some, it’s a first-class love language, for others it’s the difference in mood for the day. How often do you think of how much you appreciate a gesture, an effort, a kind thought or act and you don’t say something in the moment, you keep it to yourself feeling good, while moving…
Sometimes, the right question finds you at the right time. As I was reading through some of my journal notes, I found myself learning and re-learning some magnificent lessons. When you’re up early and you have this divine space and time where no one needs you, the day hasn’t begun for the world, and there is nothing but you and the…
Don’t open your mouth in a state of anxiety. Seems simple, right? Well, not for some of us. When I’ve done this, it’s only misfired 100% of the time. How about you? Learning to hit a pause button in my mind before my mouth automatically takes off is a practice I’m working on. I need to be better. This year has offered abundant opportunities for…
