6 months ago we were setting New Year's resolutions and declaring our independence from whatever habits and patterns were holding us back. Now is the perfect time for reflection--have
choices you've made in the first half of 2016 moved you closer to freedom and fulfillment, or further away?
If closer, celebrate and keep moving forward!
If further away, celebrate the
awareness
of what needs to shift, then create a new plan that exercises your right to re-align without apology.
Today we are celebrating the 4th of July--a holiday all about freedom. And as heart-centered, purpose-driven women, we've chosen the path of self-leadership, owning the impact our decisions have not only on ourselves, but on others.
"Everything you do right now ripples outward and affects everyone. Your posture can shine your heart or transmit anxiety. Your breath can radiate love or muddy the room in depression. Your glance can awaken joy. Your words can inspire freedom. Your every act can open hearts and minds." [David Deida]
Unfortunately, not everyone shares our awareness, acts from integrity or leads with love. I believe that in this world of negativity, it has never been so important to cultivate proactive self-care practices to
protect our energy, inspiration, and confidence.
Life is full of sudden changes-- in ups and downs of emotional climates, weather patterns, and job security. One minute you can feel great like everything is soaring. The next minute you get slammed with bad news, a loved one falls ill, or tragedy strikes like last week's Bangladesh bombing.
For better or worse, that's just the way it is.
But what's NOT just the way it is, is who YOU choose be and what you choose to do in the constant fluctuations.
With Freedom comes 3 Abilities:
Which One are you developing?
1. RETREAT-ability:
to Impulsively Retreat in fear
2. RESPONSE-ability:
to Mindfully Respond with resolve
3. REACT-ability:
t
o
Mindlessly React in panic
As the C.E.O. of Y.O.U. you're empowered to control your attitudes and interpretations. Our ability to
Respond
quickly
as part of the solution in times of crisis requires that we choose with conscious awareness.
Our actions carry such incredible weight, how
you're choosing to inspire, encourage, and uplift? please hit reply to share with me :)
