From my All About Life Coaching journal written on Friday, 3/11/11:
So truth be told, I was the happiest, most alive person I encountered today!
This morning started out with a little task I promised myself I would do right away to 'clear the mental junk'. I took a notepad and jotted down every single thing that just popped into my mind. Ugh, simply amazing how much this head of mine holds in terms of random thoughts at any one time ~ no wonder I struggle with quieting it so that I can gain any focus or clarity! Lol
Anyway, I had mentioned that I was struggling with this recently and feeling like it has been a monumental task to feel 'serene'. My coach Maia suggested I give the above a try and record what I experienced by doing so.
What I experienced after about 10 minutes of this exercise was the mental capacity to think clearly! I felt peaceful and self assured. How easy is that? Loved it and will be doing more of it for sure. I had been in the habit of writing lists which certainly helped in the process of getting my mind decluttered, but this was even better. By the time I got on to our group call this morning, I felt re-energized and ready to absorb more!
The call, of course, was fabulous ~ empowering, enlightening and affirming as usual. On our call today I learned that I need to trust my intuition more and just jump in when my gut tells me to rather than simply wait for 'my turn'.
The rest of my day, so far, has been filled with household to-do's which I didn't feel the need to procrastinate any longer. Felt productive and accomplished and joyous to have the energy and mindfulness to get things done. Now I am enjoying some time to journal and listening to my husband and son chatting away while they cook a spaghetti dinner for us. I feel very happy, very alive in the present. Gotta love it!
