Monday Morning Musing: A Made Up Mind

M U S E  U P O N  T H I S:

"There is nothing more powerful than a made up mind."

~ Lewis Pugh

 

Is your mind made up?  Have you definitively decided to move toward what you want, no matter what?  Maybe?  I am admitting to you right now that my mind wasn't fully.  I realized it this week and am admitting it to you right here and now.  I was hesitating because what I really want, and I mean really, really, really want is big. It is really big and that is scary.  I was holding back.  Then I heard this quote.  You know who Lewis Pugh is?  He swam the North Pole and the lake that is forming at the base of Mount Everest as a result of glacial melt. (Awesome talk on Ted.com, by the way.)  He said that to do the swims he does, he has to fully commit to what he is doing, no hesitation.  Are you?  I am now...and I would LOVE some company!

I feel better just knowing there are people like this in the world.  Thank you, ladies, whoever you are, for making the world a better place.

 

Monday Morning Musing: Challenges are Stepping Stones

M U S E  U P O N  T H I S:

Our challenges aren't obstacles to what we are creating, they are stepping stones.

They teach us something we need in order to become the person we are destined to be.
 

Challenges happen in life all the time. They can become especially poignant when you are consciously creating something you really want in your life because it feels as if you are being derailied from what you really want.  But in order to create what you really want in life, you need to change yourself, something needs to be different in YOU otherwise you will continue to create what you have always created.  You might need to be more flexible or more structured, a better listener or better at speaking up.  Maybe you need to be more compassionate, stronger, more resilient.  When you put out to the Universe a change you want to create, the Universe brings you the events that need to happen for you to be what you need to be to have what you want to have.  YOUR job lies in making sure you see it not as a brick wall, but as a stepping stone.

Monday Morning Musing: You Know What You Want

M U S E  U P O N  T H I S

Not sure what you want?

Yes, you do, you just don't think it is possible so you hide it from yourself.

Let the door open a crack...

I hear it all the time from my clients "I don't know what I want".  But the truth is, you do.  In your heart of hearts, there is a dream, something you really want but there is fear in bringing it to the surface.  (Oh, and you can hide it so well, you really may not consciously know what you want.)  What to do?  Help yourself feel really good, empowered, hang out with friends you admire and leave you feeling great, read inspirational books, think about those you envy (and wonder why that is).  Slowly let that door open a crack...
 

NOTE FROM ME: I am now posting the musings on this blog -- part of my decluttering plan!  It is all so exciting!
