START YOUR DAY THIS WAY (from inside out)

By
Industry Observer with people first-then business feedback-input specialist

The well-named rut has seized you & the grip is so subtle, you don't notice you are bound. Helping this along is a comfort zone that made a home in you, with your permission & has captured your awareness & growth dynamics basically locking them up for no further use. The why & the how of life is reduced to hypnotic trances, suggestions & complacency. Is this the Twilight Zone? The invasion of the Body Snatchers? The Matrix? All of the above unless you act!

everything is yours to do with as you wish

BEGIN HERE

Just appreciate the obvious that you are UP & about, enjoying an amazing gift that we call life. It is easy to overlook it when we are in a hurry or acting out an agenda or purpose. Sometimes what we must get done gets all our time & attention a good thing. But without Life, simple down to earth open your eyes in the morning & begin again life, nothing will take place

WORTHY NOTE: If there ever was a "pause for cause", life is front & center

THANK YOU

Spend a moment to just respect the fact that YOU ARE HERE. Don't make it a holiday just a pause & it will feed the gratitude banks within. As a bonus, it sends a message out to the Universe allowing us to be bigger than our own little worlds by acknowledging the bigger picture & respecting it. The flow of life is no myth

AHHH FRESH NEW DAY

Do your best not to have any holdover by which I mean past events that you bring into this day. Why do that? Yesterday & the day before had its own events. Today belongs to the now. Don't invite additional circumstances unless it is the intention to resolve something. If not, keep it fresh as long as you can

WORTHY NOTE: Everything will get done. Relax. Wonder, ponder & jump-in!

GIVE 100%

Today requires nothing more than your full presence. Observe & receive the portion that this day offers by being available to receive it. HOW? Stay in the moment, reduce your thoughts which trigger stress & anxiety and go about your business giving it all you have. In turn, it will give back that & more. Try this! Test it

NOT GIVING 100%...?

This is a very valuable reveal about yourself. Observe how you DON'T give what you have & the why of it. Here, we may find a loss & a lack of passion, purpose, considerations, hidden obstacles & the mother of it all called complacency. This is a great time to reassess, clean up beliefs & reset yourself. Maybe move-on? 

LIGHT-HEARTED

If you can find a way to practice being carefree while going about the day, I promise you the little kid in you will join you every step of the way, now that's good company to have over & spend quality time with. Simplicity is not talked about enough. Kids don't talk about it at all. WHY? They are living it! Join them

BEWARE OF CONTROL

What a sneaky "robber" dynamic this is. First off, it is an illusion & how deep it is entrenched in you is worthy to explore. Parental trauma, injustice, fears or over-correction has to be unlearned & dispensed with. The adult part has to let it go

FOR THE DEEPER PONDERER

For the brave & the bold, ponder & ask yourself: Why am I here? What is required of me? How can I be of service this day? Include this on your life resume. Why? You will get the job i.e. abundant life. Oh, one more thing that I emphasize from time to time for you & others sake.

RUN AT OPTIMUM

This is different than giving or living 100% & not to be confused with maximum. Optimum pushes us to the edge, the place where amazing things happen because this is optimum's realm of operation. It involves commitment from all your systems (they line-up & obey via your command & focus) & in return for you giving pedal to the metal (by hope & faith), a surprise return of satisfaction, mystery, contentment & awe will visit. Go there now! Stay there more!

What a refreshing reminder to pause and actually notice the gift of being here today, Richie & You 🙂. I really appreciate the way you framed presence and gratitude as practical tools, not lofty ideals, and it’s a message worth carrying forward.
