How did your first week of 2017 go, Friend?
Here's a great Life Strategy to begin your new year with...
New beginnings can happen at the start of a new year, new month, new week, new hour, or new MINUTE.
To build and protect my confidence, I start over (new beginning) all the time. If my day isn't going like I want it to or I am not feeling like I intended, which is happy, confident, loving, and positive, it's time for a new beginning.
Sometimes I need to:
- journal my feelings (I do this nightly also)
- lovingly bug my friends on Facebook
- drink an extra bottle of water to clear my brain (that really works!)
- walk on the beach
- look through pictures I've taken on my phone
- talk to God
- do some emotional release work
- color in my coloring book
- eat chocolate (a staple in my home)
- play "Beat The Clock" to make a project into a game
- watch funny cat videos
- sit on my balcony in the sunshine
- workout (I do that 2-3 times per day anyway)
- eat chocolate covered coffee beans (hmmm, chocolate again)
- OR PRETEND I JUST GOT UP AND START MY DAY OVER
You have the opportunity for a new beginning ANY TIME you want one, Friend... even if it's only in your head.
In fact, those private new beginnings are fun because it's no one else's business anyway.
As Judge Judy says, "It's your life. Live it well!" (She's amazing, isn't she?) Imagine your 2017 just the way you want it to be. Include all of the wonderful emotions you want to feel as if you are ALREADY (that's the key, Friend) living it, and feeling them. Pretend, pretend, pretend.
Your subconscious mind doesn't know the difference between what's imaginated and what's real. And that's why manifestation works. Your subconscious mind begins creating AFTER YOU consciously begin creating in your own head and heart. (head - thoughts, heart - feelings)
It's much more empowering than getting angry, or frustrated, or sad that things aren't going your way.
AND as soon as you let go of the need to control by simply restarting with more positive energy and compassion for yourself, you flow freely with your values and purpose.
Connection to yourself is ALWAYS better than trying (try = t-word = failure and doubt) to control what's outside of you. In case you haven't noticed, that doesn't work anyway. Life, love, happiness, and confidence are an inside job, Friend. And YOU deserve to have all of them! Click Reply on this email and let me know: - What a good new beginning activity is for you
- How often you plan on creating a new beginning (example: at the onset of frustration, or overwhelm)
I love hearing from you and will write back ASAP.
You ROCK!
