Here is a challenge for those of you who wish to experience more of those pleasant and productive days that for whatever reason seem so sparse. Keep a notebook handy and for at least 3 days, notice and write down the topics of your thoughts. Secondly, notice and write down words and sentences that you use often in conversations. At the end of the day review your notebook and ask yourself the following questions:
What am I noticing about myself?
What am I noticing about the people I talk to?
What ‘general feel’ do I project?
What do I subconsciously wish for? What do I get?
Am I usually thinking about what I “can’t” have or what I do have?
What do I focus more on, the things I don’t have or the ways I will get what I want?
How do I plan to be from day to day? Example: happy, angry, hopeful, miserable, content…
If you say, “It just happens, I never plan how I will feel or how I will be” then would you be willing to choose one way of ‘being’ to see what happens?
Example: “Today I will be curious or today I will be patient.”
*The more often you practice this exercise the more likely you will see change.
When will you start enjoying good days more often?
Share your thoughts with us …curious what they will be?
