Memories Are the Fruit of Your Labour

A nice meal, great company and all of your efforts to gather a great group of people together to connect your circle of friends has come to fruitition.

You have worked hard to:

• fit into your outfit
• set the perfect table
• create the most social atmosphere
• provide for everyone's needs
• clean the house
• feel quite the host

Congratulations!  The fruits of your labour will become the stuff of which memories are made. 

Memories come in all shapes and sizes. They come from the moments that we reflect upon afterwards; they come from the facial expressions and touches throughout the day; they come from something we have heard or glimpsed; they come from all over at different times into our minds.

Be mindful of the fruit of your labour.  Don't let them slip away.  You will always have a bank of memories to draw upon....and unlike any other bank account, it continues to fill up even with withdrawals.

Reinvent Everyday

It takes courage to reinvent joys, to reinvent opportunities, to reinvent dreams, to reinvent connections, to reinvent hopes that you have set aside.

~Mary Anne Radmacher

I cannot think of anything else to say with this quote.  It is completely true and defines courage to a T.
Take a moment today to reflect on reinventing your own opportunities and dreams, making connections new and fresh and looking at your list of hopes and reminding yourself that they can be reality.

Which Way Do I Go?

"Never look back unless you are planning to go that way."

- Henry David Thoreau

Picture yourself here.  Looking in the rearview mirror.   This guy looks like he has left something behind.  Or perhaps he missed something along the way.  Either way, can he go back?  Or is that going backward?

Perhaps he can take a moment and reflect on how he missed it or left it behind and understand why that happened.  Going back is usually not the solution to anything...only causing more harm than good. 

I had the opportunity to go back to a job I had moved on from once.  Fortunately, I got to spend a day shadowing in the role and realized that the job was no longer what I thought it was - it had evolved (or changed) and my perception of the role, while still the same, no longer matched the job.  Happily I moved on to something new and different, and better.

As Thoreau says - plan to go back....investigate, reflect and remember, but don't stay there!

BLUE

 Peaceful, relaxing, meditative and soothing.

Blue is a color.

Blue can also be a feeling.

Blue like the sky. Blue like the water.

Blue like the tears that fall from my eyes.

Bring blue to me and see me at peace, at rest.

Bring blue to me and see me dwell, and float like a cloud.

Bring blue to me and find me searching for softness and relaxation.

Bring blue. Find blue.

Pictures in My Mind

Just like you have an inner voice, you can also see pictures in your mind.

This can be visualization – attempting to see something specific, or you can simply let the pictures form as you are listening to others speak.

This technique is very soothing, almost calming when listening. You can find yourself more centered and focused on what is being said – not anticipating what your response will be.


Try it. Listen to instructions with your eyes closed so that you can see the actions taking place as they are described. It will amaze you!
