We all have the power to inspire
These can be difficult times for even the most positive-minded of people. Just last week someone reached out to me and explained she felt she had no future. I found this deeply troubling and wanted to help.
We did an exercise I know as, 'A day in my best life.' and I am delighted to share that the exercise appears to have helped her to find positive energy anew.
The exercise asks that we imagine what our perfect life may look like in the future. All the good things that could happen. How will you be spending time and who with in your best life?
Be inspired by these happy thoughts. Now think about your strengths and how you can use them to achieve your best life. Remember, positive people earn more, are healthier, have more friends, are happier, and live longer.
What better than to aim to foster relationships, express gratitude, being calm and performing acts of kindness?
With her permission she has allowed me to share her words...
I woke up. There is a fragrance that settles in peaceful homes, it consists of the combination of the smell of people who love each other and themselves and the smell of the detergent in which clothes are washed :) and it is unique. This fragrance penetrates into the house, furniture and sheets. I don't know if I am married, with my lover, or have children, but the house I wake up has that peaceful home smell. A home that every visitor will remember peacefully.
I'm heading to the window overlooking my garden full of green and fruit trees, I probably thought of a song and I woke up with my sleepy silly dance moves and opened the song. I love waking up to music.
Then I made my coffee and went out to the garden barefoot. I had a little chat and coffee with the fruits and flowers I planted. I enjoyed the sun and the earth that hit my face a little.
Then I read some books. I wake up early. So I prepared the breakfast that would make everyone happy when the household woke up and made them wake up at least as nice as I did. We talk about things to do that day for breakfast, if I love the book I read, I will also talk about the developments in the book. I have good routines in my life, the things I do for the people I love and the things I love to do.
We take long walks. We have such great conversations that we don't realize how far we walked. We speak so well that we wander in each other's brains.
Everyone in my life trusts me, they know I'm real, that's what they love most about me. My strangeness, my love, my happiness are real. They value my opinions because they know that I arrive at them by thinking and making my own decisions.
There is a meal that I cook so well that everyone who eats it thinks that it has its finest form. When we want to be with each other, someone is craving for that meal and we pretend to be gathered for that meal.
I also overcame my old fear of swimming. Now I can swim carefree while contemplating or chatting. Now I feel rested and integrated with the sea when I am in the water.
My days are busy but I am not anxious, not stressed, I am not lacking. I just live in flow. I am not afraid of losing just passing days, I am not afraid of not being able to win. Life just flows and I live beautiful things. When I put my head on the pillow, I sleep with a comforting fatigue. I am satisfied with the things that tire me.
