What’s one small improvement you can make in your life?
One small improvement I can make is being consistent with my wake-up routine.
I fell off for a week and it took a noticable toll on energy, focus, and mood.
The routine: 20 push-ups, 20 crunches, 20 squats.
When I complete the routine, it is a reminder of all small choices that are in my direct control every day. These choices build momentum and it is up to me to direct which way and how fast the momentum will continue.
The routine is also an active gratitude, or a physical “prayer”, a celebration of one more day to make one small improvement.
I am finding out, more often, that the universe will place challenges, people, and opportunities to build you towards the life that you want. In order to get those things, go to those places, become that person, there will be a definitive road map.
Just like when we decide on a destination and we enter that into a navigation app for help, even when we get lost or decide on a detour, there will be opportunities and decisions that bring us back or reorients us towards that destination.
Sometimes we are not in tune, and sometimes it’s simply downright denial that causes us to go off course. Nevertheless, when your ultimate fate or destiny becomes clearer, your decisions and actions respond to align.
Some of the people and experiences thus far have been the signs, the turns, the unexpected redirects to refine and define a clearer path for each of us. Some of those moments were painful lessons we can be grateful for because they were the necessary uncomfortable pushes towards the steps that we needed to take, the catalyst to acknowledging deep down the internal compass was freaking out to madly seek out one’s true north, and we were unhappy because the destination we saw for our futures were different than what others saw for us.
And recently the fate of events forced a pivot in step with time.
For me, for now, the course correction lessons for this turn: * Loving where people are at, and letting them go. * Honoring fate will create events to pull you towards your destiny. * The universe will make space for what you want, sometimes in a way that you may not expect.
