Just checking that you are keeping things pure and simple for this Advent Season?
So often I am pretty wired, aiming for unrealistic expectations and chasing the Holy Grail right now - whether that is on a personal level, a business level or trying to cram in all the expectations of the current year that I have failed to achieve ahead of the midnight 31st Dec deadline. Make sense or sound familiar ......... ??
I am feeling a certain sense of calm right now and instead of focussing on next year and the future of 2016, although I'm excited for the change of the turn of the year and have plenty of plans in place, I feel that I still have plenty to do here and now. I still feel a sense of achievement that needs completing here but not in a rushed or hurried way. All feels calm and in control and really, what will be will really just be!
So take stock and appreciate where you are. Think about where you want to be or what you want to do but remember yourself in the process, celebrate and take care. It is a busy time of year with plenty of activity, distraction and pressure regardless of what is going on directly for yourself. I am aiming for a daily meditation and creating time and space for reflection and a little bit of self-care. I encourage you to aim for the same. Season's Greetings :) x
