She owns it without apology

She owns it without apology

Welcome to week 14 of your summer challenge!

Today is another short, sweet, and powerful challenge.

We've been talking about action with full permission and full responsibility. This week, I want you to own it. Whatever "it" is for you. Here is what that might look like:

  • Graciously accept a compliment
  • Drop the apology (unless you truly mess up, of course)
  • Claim a weird little habit and make it part of your "brand"
  • Make a choice and stick by it without justification
  • Tell a positive story about yourself in conversation
  • Wear what you love and walk around like you're worth a million bucks

If you're enjoying this challenge, please invite your friends and colleagues to join you. All they have to do is sign up here.

Have fun with this one!

 

Practices That Change The World #5

Time to read: 46 seconds

I promise this is not staged

A client named Leslie retired on December 30, 2022 and is moving to her dream city to start her new life. We've worked together in Clarity U for 2.5 years so I've had the honor of witnessing her transformation from fear (Will I have enough money? Who am I without my career?) to joy. (I'm moving to Santa Fe! I have a new house!)

On a group call today, she offered her writing and inspired today's pracitice to change the world.

Embrace change

The fact is, everything changes. When you welcome change, life becomes easier. I hope you are as inspired as I am by Leslie's beautiful words:

What falls away as I age to reveal the beauty in the now.

  • Striving becomes being
  • Planning becomes allowing
  • Impatience becomes contentment
  • Hurrying becomes peaceM
  • Achieving becomes loving what is
  • Wanting becomes accepting
  • Yearning becomes insight into what is important

Have a wonderful weekend!

Hello, World!
