Today’s TGIF (Trusting,
Grateful, Inspires & Faith) An
exercise from our “Cultivating Joy” Group and Dr Brene Brown’s book on The
Gifts of Imperfection.
I'm Trusting what
I am Grateful for, what Inspires me, and how
I'm practicing my Faith.
I am trusting
that if I pause to acknowledge my fears, (particularly my fear around scarcity)
that I can choose to treat myself as I would a good friend and say to myself,
“Are these fears really valid? Is this
really the truth? Is this true 100% of
the time? Is it possible that it could
be untrue?
Today I choose to
trust that I am enough and worthy enough to create the life of my dreams.
I am Grateful for
the challenges that afford me the opportunity for growth and how these
challenges give me opportunities to make different choices everyday. I am grateful for the acknowledgement that if
I choose to take the same action and think the same thoughts that I will create
the same outcome and that I can begin to shape a new outcome with my new
thoughts and intentions for today.
Today I choose to think in terms of possibilities instead of
limitations.
I am so Inspired
by everyone in my classes on Cultivating Joy and the fact that we can share our
stories, our challenges and our successes!
You inspire me so much!
I am practicing my Faith
by writing this blog and beginning to share my own story with you.
Too often we go through life letting our primitive brain and
fear run our lives. We can fall into the
trap of “What’s wrong with me?” instead of acknowledging all that is “Right
with me”. This has been my default mode
causing me so much anxiety and fear , keeping me stuck and totally interfering
with my ability to experience joy.
Today
I choose to work on possibilities without fear or an expectation of the
outcome.
What would you do if you could
not fail and had nothing to lose?
Will you please share with me your TGIF?
Carpe Diem,
Lisa
What would YOU do if you could not fail and had nothing to lose??
ReplyDeleteExcellent Question and one that I am working on and will share as it unfolds. I am taking giant leaps of faith, by hiring a coach and a business school to help me to further define my mission and offerings and to create a business life that suits me best and is sustainable while giving my best to you and the world. Every time I put myself out here with a blog, a new class, a speaking engagement, it is scary as it is so personal and therefore feels so much more vulnerable than selling recycled plastics or data storage or consulting services.
ReplyDeleteMost of all I am letting go of being cool and "always in control" and to cultivate, laughter, song and dance. Today I am setting up Rock Band in the basement so we can play in our Cultivating Joy Group :)
