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. JC |

And while I do think individuals reflect aspects of our Selves that we like and even don’t like, this morning I developed a new understanding of this mirror phenomenon....
Before you can become the version of your Self you desire, you have to first believe you are already that person. At a minimum, you have to believe you are capable of becoming that person, but truthfully, I don’t think that is strong enough. I think you need to actually believe that you are the version of your Self you are before you actually see it. Once you believe, you will naturally begin to draw on that future version of your Self, feeling as you would, doing what you would, and...
Change happens when the discomfort of not changing becomes greater than the discomfort of the change. This is my favorite version of this quote—I’ve heard it with fear in place of discomfort. I’ve also heard it with pain in place of discomfort. Each of those is accurate and keeps the truth of the statement. I think I like discomfort because in my mind, discomfort arrives before pain and fear. And rather than wait until I’m in pain or fear is a prominent emotion, I’d rather listen to...
