As I was “introspecting” myself, I really wanted to get in touch with what motivates me to keep going, to press through difficulties, to see the finish line…if there is one. The question is really an easy one for me to answer on some levels, but for the deeper issues, it’s not quite as simple.
Introspective Sunday
This is an interesting (almost disturbing) question that I just had to ask. While in prayer/meditation last night, I actually asked if I could be attached to the chronic illness (migraine/daily headache) that came into my life, set up camp, and hasn’t left since. I have to be completely transparent here; there are times [...]
I’ve been thinking a lot about courage and confidence lately, so much so that it’s having a positive effect on me and the way I’m dealing with new situations. You know that I really do act on the things that I talk about here…don’t you?
Giving your full attention, body, soul, and spirit to another takes practice. Frankly, they should be teaching this in elementary school instead of making it an adult class at the community college that no one ever takes.
I guess this self-focus is really just another way of getting to know the real you. It’s a good way to get to the bottom of any destructive behavior that might be popping up.
Our wonderfully made bodies and spirits are equipped with the best bells and whistles there are. We have the “guts” to get the glory. All we have to do is believe it and utilize the power in which we’ve been given.
Ah, yes, the mind/body connection. The more we hear about how important it is, the more we should pay attention. What gives, Ladies and Gentlemen (we’ve got some male fans now)?
I really enjoy writing these self-evaluating posts on Sunday; they are as useful for my own growth as I hope they are for yours. Today’s topic is one that, yes, I have asked myself in the past…and do still occasionally. Fear can be paralyzing, especially if it doesn’t make sense. Let me explain.
There aren’t too many women out there who could say that they didn’t need something, whether it be clothes, kitchen utensils, a man, a job, a car; it’s human nature to expand their list of possessions.
Allow me to finish that question: Am I all that I’m supposed to be?
Probably not…I don’t think any of us are.
What we are now is the result of what we’ve thought and said about ourselves in the past. I don’t know about you, but I’ve tended to think inside a rather small box that didn’t [...]
