How did you start your day today? Did you wake up ready to get your day moving? Were you excited anticipating what’s on your agenda? Do you have a strong intention to discover more on topics that make you feel alive? Are you feeling good because you’re engaged in activities that benefit others, brings satisfaction for your participation, promotes stronger relationships and an overall sense of well-being in our world?
Do you want to feel eager to begin your day knowing you will find meaning for your actions? Do you desire to feel the gratification of making more of your day than meeting the basic human necessities for living?
If you struggle to greet the new day with hope and ambition and truly desire to feel more energized as you begin your day, here are a few ideas to lead you in the direction of living a day that is more stimulating and holds a greater possibility of feeling satisfied throughout the day.
- Be fully present. Whether you’re walking, talking, driving or working, instead of going through the motions with minimal effort and attention, because this the benefit of habits, do it more consciously. Give this task your absolute and undistracted attention! By doing this, many times the tiny details usually lost bubble up and surprise us that we never noticed it before, or we’ve forgotten.
- Be a detective. Don’t be shy about asking people provocative questions such as “What do you enjoy the most about your job?”, “What are your favorite hobbies and why?”, “What are their biggest challenges with______ and how do you go about overcoming them?”. You’ll be surprised how other people’s answers will either provide a new perspective you never considered or lead you to an idea or solution that suits your situation.
- Get STIMULATED! If you want any ideas on this, email me! Please! I have a friend and we are constantly volleying ideas that encourage exploration of new information. We are a bottomless well of curiosity and action and if you want a direction to explore, I guarantee we’ve got a suggestion. We navigate books, webinars, online classes, podcasts, clubs, magazines, TedTalks, YouTube videos, Instagram, and even Pinterest. There is plenty of intriguing concepts in the world to discover, if we look through the eyes of someone willing to expand their current life view.
Don’t say you’re not worth it. Don’t say it doesn’t matter. Don’t say nothing will make a difference. Start with a baby step toward invigorating your health, relationships, work and your over life-satisfaction. Get curious.
You are worth it!
Keep it Simple,
Just Teri
