Tapestry of Relationships

Relationships are like a tapestry!

What threads do you weave into the tapestry of your relationships?
Respect, acceptance, trust….? Rethink the threads you use.
Get creative to create vibrant, strong relationships.

Enjoying This Moment?

Are you enjoying all that’s happening at this moment?

If not, then think: everything that happens, happens for my personal growth. Even if you can’t see it, feel it or believe it. Just hold this thought in your awareness and start recognizing the magic and the humor in all that that’s happening at this moment.

As a result, you’ll start to enjoy and make the most out of all that’s happening at this moment.

Finding Inner Happiness

We tend to think of happiness as a commodity, as something that we have or don’t have. But actually, happiness is not a commodity, it's something that comes from within.

So, everyday go within to find inner happiness. Experience it and be happy everyday.

Pay and Give

How good is your listening ability? Most of us are not good at it because listening requires us to give our full attention.

If you want to better your listening ability, start paying attention to the sounds around you. If you are in a coffee shop, pay attention to the coffee machine, the music playing.... If you are at work, pay attention to the sounds in the background, the traffic, the air conditioning, the clock ticking....

Start paying attention and you'll get better at giving attention, and as a result better your listening ability.

As You Get Ready For Bed

We change our clothes before going to bed. It's a simple ritual that helps us to disengage from the day.

Here's a simple exercise to do, as you change out of your clothes and get ready for bed: Let go of everything that has happened during the day. Remove the stress and the pressure from the day. Put aside any unresolved issues, worries and ongoing thought processes, you can come back to it tomorrow.

Disengage your mind from the day and this will help you to sleep better.

Nice or Kind?

Are you being nice or kind? Often when we're being nice, we want something in return. And when we're being kind, we want nothing in return.

Kindness tends to be much more sincere than niceness because there are no strings attached. Shift from being nice to being kind and try a different way of being.

The Power of Compassion

Compassion soothes & empowers the minds & hearts of others, without draining its own strength. Because compassion will let go of what hurts the heart &, instead, hold on to what heals.

That's why compassion is able to empathize & see the inner need behind the expression. It's able to look behind anger & see sadness, & behind coldness, it can see fear.

How strong is your compassion? What is it able to do?

Overused Words

Often the words we use in our conversations are over used. Over used words make conversations, boring and bland.

Pick and play with words to make your conversations more vivid and colorful.

What words do you over use? What will you avoid and use instead?

You and Your Work Space

You've heard the quote from Albert Einstein: “If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?” What does your work space say about you? Does your work space help or hinder your focus, creativity & productivity? Research indicates that a cluttered work space promotes inspiration but reality indicates that clutter is stressful, because if you can’t find what you need, when you need it, what then!

Declutter your work space & organize & maintain a space that optimizes your focus, creativity & productivity.

Everything That Happens

They say everything happens for a reason. So, when you don’t understand why things happen the way they do, try not to get disheartened. Tell yourself to ‘just wait and see.' Things may unravel and become clearer over time, and even if they don't, tell yourself, 'there is benefit in everything.' And even if you can't see the benefit, trust that there is benefit in everything that happens.

Pack Right, Pack Light

What do you carry in your pockets and in your bag, every day? Is it all necessary? Why not give your shoulders and back a break and try a minimalist approach, and carry only the essentials.

What about your mind? What do you carry in your mind every day? Carry a heavy load and it weighs you down, so why not give yourself a break and 1) unpack what you don’t need, 2) pack right, pack light, and 3) try living baggage free life.

The Fight Club

Are you a member of the flight club? There are things worth fighting for, things that are important to us, things we care about, people we love... But if we were to spend our energy fighting every battle, it would be really tiring and draining.

Maybe it’s time to get better at knowing when to fight and when to flow. Maybe change your membership to the respect club or the calm club. And then we can conserve our energy to resolve things respectfully and make the best of things calmly.

Just Blue Sky

Sometimes we get stuck in our limitations. If you want to get unstuck, let your awareness become like the sky, stretched from horizon to horizon, vast and unlimited, just potential and blue sky!

Feel your potential and you'll work through your limitations and everything else in the best way you can.

No 'Thought for Today' on Bank Holiday Monday, back on Tuesday 2nd May.

Your Mood, Your Choice

Do you let someone or something dictate your mood? You do know, you don't have to. To be in a good mood or a bad mood, is your choice. So, if someone's a bit moody today or if something is just not right, remember to choose your mood.

What to leave in, what to leave out?

What you leave out, is just as important as what you leave in - whether it's a painting, a blog, a CV, a photograph, a book, a movie, a 'Thought for Today'.

Leave everything in and it gets in the way of creativity. Crop, edit, leave the right things out and you enhance what you’ve created and make it work better.

The art is in knowing what to leave in and what to leave out!
