It’s now September, can you believe it?! It’s my birthday month and if there’s one thing I’ve learned throughout the years, it’s that there is no point in dwelling on the past and allowing it to keep defining you.
We all seem to reflect on birthdays and think we should be farther along in our life, or.. my life wasn’t supposed to end up this way. There comes a point where you finally accept where you are and know that everything in life that has happened was for a purpose and you start to accept, embrace and love exactly where you are. Does that mean everything is perfect? Absolutely not, yet you come to accept your life lessons and appreciate it all. It’s now learning how to be present, moment by moment, day by day.
I’ve learned when you are present, you can activate the infinite possibilities for yourself. Yes, it is possible to master your ability and find symmetry between what you need now and what you are creating for tomorrow. Today I started to journal and reflect on exactly what I want to focus on for my birthday month of September and also for the rest of the year.
Here are a few essential tips to help you focus on your September goals for clarity:
1) Check-in with yourself often.
How you feel determines what you create. This is why it is important to check in with your emotional well-being. Think about it; when you are unhappy, it isn’t easy to create joy or enthusiasm. When you are overwhelmed, it is difficult to develop solutions. Emotions can dictate what you generate.
2) Focus on satisfaction.
Many people are goal-oriented, and that keeps them focused on results. Yes, some tasks are mundane and necessary, but it is vital to find a positive emotion as you work toward your dreams. To do this, seek the satisfaction that comes from working on what you want and be grateful for opportunities to work on your solutions. If what you are doing brings you closer to the happiness you want, this will bring you joy.
3) Acknowledge your progress.
While you work on your dreams, you must find moments to acknowledge, celebrate, and embrace your progress. Being grateful for how far you have advanced will help you maintain who you are. It is easy to get distracted, only focusing on manifestations, but being that single-minded keeps you from enjoying the miracles on the journey. The concentration on progress will keep you going when you feel unmotivated.
4) Accept your responsibility for your happiness.
You control your energy; accept responsibility for your overall well-being. Your emotional, physical, and spiritual health is your own to manage. Make the time daily to connect and align with these three aspects of yourself. Only you can maintain a healthy balance with who you are and where you are going. You are the one capable of giving yourself everything that you need and dream of. You are important, and you deserve a lot. You are solely responsible for your joy and liberation. You are meant to do all and have all. Now go after your ALL for September and the rest of the 2020!
Much love to you all and HAPPY SEPTEMBER!
