Hello my British friends
A short challenge this evening to let you enjoy the last of your fun-filled weekend.
So did you play? Did you discover that it doesn’t take hours of preparation and lots of money to create moments of joy in your life?
To be truly creative in your life – you need to reconnect with that child-like part of yourself that still sees the “infinite possibilities” – so the first part of tailoring a truly exceptional life made to fit the real you is to take time to play.
So grab your diary and schedule some play-dates with yourself – I need you to make at least 7 to start creating a new habit – and here’s the important thing. When the busy stuff of life shows up, I need you to honour these dates with yourself as a priority.
Your kids need you to ferry them to the mall- sorry I have a appointment. Your boss springs a last minute project on you – sorry I have commitments. Your partner calls late to ask you to pack in another errand – sorry I won’t have time I have somewhere to be.
YOU – and the life you are slowly gestating are the priority for these small chunks of time. I’m not saying neglect your family – what I am saying is don’t neglect yourself.
Get that pen and do it now.
I will be back
This is cool, especially the part about scheduling it in, because let's be honest if we don't, it aint going to happen.
ReplyDeleteI am busy, busy, busy at the moment....but off to get my diary now, any excuse to play :-)
My friends 3 year old ordered her to bring her diary when he last visited so we could schedule the next playdate. He already knows this is how you make it happen. How powerful. Sometimes you have to be shown by a 3 year old.
