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 |

I heard something the other day that really grabbed my attention. What if our habits suggest more about how we view our Self than a reflection of our discipline? If we struggle with habits, it’s not that we aren’t disciplined; it’s that somewhere we are not valuing our Self as we should. That made me uncomfortable. It also made me rethink the habits I want to improve and the ones I want to let go of with a new focus. What do your habits suggest? See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
“We are all labeled when we are young, we are all subject to well-intentioned social expectations. We all fall into the rhythm of automatic behavioral patterns, unaware routines, and the suppression of our authentic selves for the sake of fitting in. We limit ourselves so completely that we hardly know what it means to reach our full potential, let alone come close to realizing it. Humans are naturally creative beings – we create every moment of every day. When we create from a place of...
