distractions


This morning, I was thinking about the two bald eagles I saw on Friday, and I can’t help but believe that most people driving along 116th St. in Fishers did not see the two massive birds hanging out and flying around.

I could have missed seeing them had I been distracted by my phone, other thoughts, or even changing songs on the radio.

There is no shortage of distractions today, which might keep you from receiving important messages from the Universe—you might be missing your bald eagles because you aren’t paying attention.

Not only might distractions keep you from receiving messages, but they can also be getting in the way of you getting connected with your Self; spending time on social media, getting pulled into media headlines, or participating in gossip all keep you from spending time with your Self—time which will help you get closer to your authentic life.

You don’t need to give those distractions up in totality, but reducing the distracted time will give you the time and space to connect to the things that matter most as you pursue your authentic life. The more you experience moments like I did Friday, the more you’ll want to make sure you reduce the distractions in your life and become more in tune with the Universe.


See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,

JC

Happy New Year! I apologize for just now getting this weekend's Weekly Note out to you.

I don't know about you, but I'm coming into this new year feeling more aligned and confident than ever, and I feel that this energy is contagious, so that anyone riding alongside me is going to be a beneficiary...

“Be delusional. Believe that you have the ability to make it work no matter what. Believe that regardless of what happens, it’ll all work out in the end because that’s what it takes. Anything and everything else leads to self-sabotage and failure. If you don’t believe you have what it takes, then your subconscious will do everything it can to prove that you’re right. You don’t need to be special or talented; you don’t need all the support in the world. All you need is to believe with every...

It’s that time of year when self-help podcasts, articles, and videos proliferate as people plan to make improvements in the new year. As you begin to consume this well-intentioned content (well, most of it is well-intentioned) remember that the expert or guru sharing information is doing so from the perspective of their lived experience–my Self included. Many experts speak as if their way is the only way—that they have access to knowledge that applies to everyone; the truth is, they don’t. I...
