And you? When will you begin that long journey into yourself?

TODAY!

Why today? Because I owe it to myself and others. And I believe in excellence. And I can stretch myself, both literally and figuratively . So why not start today to tap into it and do ONE think everyday that CENTERS me. 

Recently I put my work on hold as I traveled to the UK with my daughter as she joined a 3 year undergraduate course. It was beautiful to see her enter this phase of independence and responsibility. As I watched her adjust to a new culture, new lifestyle, I was surprised at how quickly she got comfortable and mentally ready for the experience. I paused and smiled as it dawned on me that probably she was more ready for this than I was!

Was I ready for this phase of my life? Not quite. It sure is different and I could be tempted to choose to fill my time with more work - exciting projects that I believe will replenish me. Will this help me live my life with purpose? I doubt it.

Yesterday, my work partner and I decided to live our work by creating a personal dashboard and to share our progress when we connect. Creating a dashboard to live authentically is easy, living it daily is in the daily practice. My writings are to help me reflect on my daily practice.  I am grateful to the people in my inner circle who inspire me to show up, be seen and live brave!

TODAY matters! My daily morning routine is a mix of meditation, movement and mindset.  I know I need dedication and practice. I will continue to share daily prompts that I plan to use to build this muscle. 

I am ready. When you are, breathe in and out and begin.....
