Getting Ready for 2010: This is My Life
I rarely do the whole New Year’s resolution thing. I’m not quite sure why either. Maybe it just seems too cliche’, or perhaps I’m not really that much of a planner to begin with. In any case, as I look forward to 2010, I decided to give it a go. Sort of.
Instead of declaring specific resolutions like losing a few pounds or starting a new workout, I sat down and wrote out a “This is My Life” list. Oddly enough, this was not a difficult list to generate. It just sort of flowed out over the course of about 5 minutes, and I have to say, I’m pretty energized after having expressed it.
It’s a true work of art for me. I even printed it out and taped it to the wall above my computer monitor where it serves as a daily reminder of the type of life I want to live.
Embracing Possibility
This brief – but inspiring – article was written by my very good friend (and client), Ellen Schaeffer. Ellen is a spiritual teacher and operates One Yoga Center in Foster, RI.
Where do you see yourself in five years, one year, one week, or one day? This can be a difficult question to answer, but it is imperative that you hold vision for your life.
Without vision, your life shifts into idle.
When you have an idea or vision for what you want to manifest in your life, the wheels are set in motion. It is as if you’ve shifted out of “park” and into fast forward. All your thinking, creativity, active and passive energy begins to consciously and unconsciously direct itself toward that which you want to create.
It is really quite simple. Without a vision nothing happens. There is nowhere to direct your thoughts or energy. Without a vision, growth and movement comes to a halt.
With vision, life becomes a course of ongoing expansion, opening doors to infinite possibility.
