Intentional Acts of Kindness #844 

by Sue Hawkes

I drive a turquoise Jeep. It’s not a conventional color on a vehicle and I chose it for that reason. The dealer calls the color “bikini pearl” and I fell in love with it.   There aren’t a lot of Jeeps on the road in this color. For me, it’s bright and cheerful and makes it unique in the sea of…

Hacking Yourself #842 

by Sue Hawkes

It’s amazing when you hack yourself.  I was at the #EOSConference recently and made it happen. Though I intend to maintain my practices regardless of my full calendar, I don’t always get it done.  I work to stay focused on water consumption, sleep, meditation, journaling/blogging, exercise and reflection, and during conference season, it’s often an imperfect and lumpy experience while…

We Wouldn’t Be Here Without You #841  

by Sue Hawkes

I’m celebrating mothers today and all days of the year.  I’m grateful I’ve had an incredible mom, amazing Edina mom (pseudo adoptive mom with no stretchmarks), and a fantastic mother-in-law.  Whether yours taught you what to do or what not to do, they informed who you are as a person as well as what matters. They carried you, literally and…

Life Unfolding #840 

by Sue Hawkes

The signs are there.   Can you see them?  When you’re present, it’s like entering the Matrix.   Everything slows down.   The pieces of the puzzle emerge and assemble themselves into a new, vibrant picture of what’s possible.   The picture isn’t accessible without letting go of where you are. It means leaving what’s comfortable, predictable, and has served you to arrive at…

On Purpose #839 

by Sue Hawkes

What does it mean to be intentional?  One of the definitions is to be “done on purpose.”  Asking the question about how much you do “on purpose” is an interesting one. Some people answer quickly with of course, however, when you slow to hear the verbiage, it begs the question, what is your purpose?  I was in a workshop recently…

Surrendering #838 

by Sue Hawkes

The good news with age is a level of certainty when disruption is happening.   Because I’ve weathered hard things and experienced the challenges that come with the pain of growth personally and professionally, I find I’m able to accept the pain with a grounded approach to weathering the turmoil.  I have peace in my heart knowing I’ll get through whatever…

More To Come #837 

by Sue Hawkes

Conferences are great opportunities for learning, connecting, and growing. They’re also hard work.  I returned from the EOS Worldwide conference overfilled with action items and emotion.  What surfaced for me during the many terrific workshops was a mixed bag of internal turmoil and emotion.   I was overfull from great content certainly, and beyond that was an undoing of sorts.   It…
