Spring Cleaning Day 6 – Stay In The Moment

by | May 17, 2019 | Blog

My friend! It’s our final day of this week of mental & emotional spring cleaning!

Think more simply.

Much of the noise and distraction in our minds and nearly all of our overwhelm stems from the fact that we’re just overcomplicating it.

We’re pulling in the irrelevant past and mulling over the uncertain future.

Be here now.

One of the quotes I’ve been using incessantly of late is:

“Birds don’t need an ornithologist in order to fly.”
~ Mark Nepo

Said more simply: birds can take flight without an expert explaining the mechanics of flying.

You can create create change without understanding your thoughts or patterns.
You can make a great choice when you’re emotional.
You can make a great choice without knowing what you’ll do tomorrow or trusting that you’ll keep your word.

Stay in the moment. Be where your feet are. Win the moment you’re in.

Nothing more, nothing less.

The rest is a distraction.

This is a tool you can use again and again, moment after moment, struggle after struggle.

It’s always available to you, and always a powerful redirect. However, it’s power comes from USING it, not from knowing it, so you have to put it into practice in your life.

The more you put into it, the more you’ll get out of it.

PS: For those of you who want to keep doing the work and creating change in your lives, think about if working with me in the 12 Weeks to Transformation this summer might be your next step. You can learn more about it and get on the wait list here.
