There’s work to do…and it’s fun
There’s always that thing that gets in the way. You’re doing pretty good. In fact compared to most people you are doing great. Even you have to admit that. You’re proud of yourself especially when you look back over the last year. Wow….I have really come a long way you think to yourself.
And in fact you have. You could have never handled what you are handling now a year ago.
It’s too good to be true is what you decide…so you start thinking about what’s wrong. And of course you find it and focus on it. A year ago that wasn’t even a consideration. But today you have higher standards.
Even though you’ve come all this way, your focus is on what’s wrong. Does this scenario sound familiar? I hear this all of the time. It’s the proverbial “fly on the ointment.”
So what’s the solution. As we know what you focus on expands. If you continue to focus on what’s wrong, you will notice it more and more.
Feel gratitude for what’s working in your life. Acknowledge yourself for what you have created.
Realize that things are perfect exactly the way they are. It’s part of the process. It’s a reminder that there’s work to do. And you have a choice. Make it fun. Enjoy the journey.
