Focus in the Direction You Want to Go!
It’s all about focus. It’s so easy to fall into the rabbit hole of negative thinking. Sometimes my brain feels like a pinball machine. That silver ball always drop drop dropping and whack whack whack. There are some techniques I’ve learned from various positive thinkers – motivational coaches. I think my favorite right now is one from Christie Marie Sheldon. She has a little phrase, “what would it take?’ that you say before something you want. “What would it take to book this commercial?” “What would it take to have this situation resolve in a way that works for everyone involved.”
The idea is that with that phrase you are giving it over to the universe. That works for me. What I appreciate is that it gives your brain something to do. You are redirecting your thoughts with the easy plug in.
Try it. What is your “What would it take?” today?
CONGRATS!
You are perfect for being just exactly who you are right now. It's true. Take a breath and appreciate
YOU.
GRATITUDE
There is simply no formula for a good life without gratitude. Think of 5 things you are grateful for right now.
MOVE
Studies have shown that moving changes our brain chemistry. Get up and take a walk, do a dance or simply strike a pose.
CONNECT
Relationships are a huge contributor to a happy life. Take time to maintain friendships. Connect with a friend now.
MEDITATE
A surprising number of people attribute their well being to the practice of meditation. Try it - you will see.
WHAT'S A HERO?
It's a sandwich made of a long roll typically filled with meat, cheese, and vegetables such as lettuce, tomato, and onions. I'm kidding,
YOU ARE A HERO! A HERO:
- Goes on a journey.
- Is faced with challenges that forces them to learn and grow.
- Meets and befriends people along the way.
- Is transformed by life's experiences and learns lessons that are unique and valuable as well as universal.
GO AHEAD, YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO.
