The Daily Do

Do You Know Which Path To Choose? - Day 329

Perseverance needs a light to persevere towards, a point on the horizon for you to stay the course. We can’t use common opinions to define if our path’s right, they are not us and change like clouds, calendars and tides. Your vision of your destiny brings you calm amongst the storm, whilst all around are changing minds you know where you’re coming from.

Do You Feed Your Thinking Every Day? - Day 328

Good thinking needs daily nourishment from an enriching and sustaining pot, and, just like eating, we choose what goes in to feed and grow our thought. Great mindset isn’t learnt then dropped like stabilisers on a bike, it grows in strength but needs constant food, and watered from inside. Nourish thoughts with positives, feed options to your best you, the once a day then on your way, impacting all you do.

Do You Sit And Simply BE? - Day 327

Realise, right now, there is no danger at your door, you have food, water, clothes and shelter from any storm. Be here in this moment waking to this present truth; everything is ok, life’s supporting you. To waste this moment on worry of future pain is to miss the truth of now, you are safe, you are sheltered, the sky is not falling down.

Do You Focus On Your Fears? - Day 326

When you’re focused on what’s good for you, and then act on this control, you’re also avoiding focus on what makes you feel fearful. Our greatest fears dissolve whilst unattended and forlorn, build solutions then look back and what was once huge now has gone. Turn the lens of your life to little victories today, and watch as progress builds and troubles slowly fade away.

Do You Think Before You React? - Day 325

A pause can stop the sting of an angry, damaging remark, one breath to think before you speak can tame a vicious bark. In the space between what’s happening and how you then respond, lies the choice of your behaviour and then that moment's gone. "Pause, breathe, seek presence, speak"... use this as a tool. The gap before reaction holds the truth of your control, the rudder of your destiny, the pilot of your soul.

Do You Think Meditation's Weird? - Day 324

Talking with an old friend, words popped out that I never thought I’d say, “Every time I meditate I have a better day”. I'd flipped back through weeks in my diary and the pattern had leapt to my attention, it was only looking back I’d revealed the power of meditation. If I’d meditated then I’d created reason and clarity, each day I’d chosen better and lived more happily.

Do You Hide Behind Excuses? - Day 323

We like to think our problems lie outside our right to choose, we sit in our discomfort and then we label with excuse. Excuses are the words we use to hide truth from ourselves, but simply stop them now and you will free yourself. That our lives are ours is sometimes hard when there’s parts that we don’t like, but forgive yourself, be honest, accept and do not hide. You know, right now, the difference between real reason and excuse, the first needs worked around but the other is just you.

Do You Let The Child Inside You Be Seen? - Day 322

Most greatness that we achieve stems from our inner child, vulnerable yet free, hiding deep inside. The more we release our inner child the more authentic we become, and we connect with others more if we’re open, free and fun. Open up your heart to someone, let them meet the child in you, watch as then the child enlivens everything you do. Let the child free in you and with this heart invest, love more, laugh more and put down the wraps of adult childishness.

Do You Want An Avalanche Of Change? - Day 321

A rolling ball of snow begins with one small but definite push, a decision, then an action gathering size and pace and this snowball can be you. Wake up starkly to the fact that you can do most anything, this one life is now and now is where your life is happening. Decide to start a snowball gently building it’s momentum, begin today with one small act that starts your years intention.

Do You Let Go Of The Past? - Day 320

New days will fall before you and in them you can renew, accept the change, let go of the past, and grasp what you can do. In the wake of letting go you reveal new roads to walk, as you close the door on yesterday, tomorrow open’s up.
