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'm on a mission to help more people find and live their authentic life. Check out my Daily Notes where I write a short note each day about the connection of spirit, mind, body and money on the Pursuit of your authentic life.

As life unfolds, be aware of how you are receiving it and make a conscious choice on how you want it to impact you. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
What’s missing? What’s missing from your life that is keeping you from waking up each morning excited to start the day? Start looking for ways to bring whatever is missing into your life, even in small ways. If it’s meant to be a part of your life, opportunities for it to grow will begin to present themselves, but they can’t start showing up if you don’t make the first move. Don’t put your Self in the position of looking back later in life regretting that you never gave your Self a chance to...
Last week, I was asked in a podcast recording how I define authenticity. You’d think I’d have a definition ready to roll, but I didn’t. I don’t think the definition of authenticity is complicated, and I shared that I really just think it means being true to your Self, true to your values. True to your values is important. But only if you know what your Authentic Self values. I think today, more than ever, people are living by values that are not aligned with their Authentic Self. Instead,...
