Best Thinking

Today's Quote:

Now I heard this on a Hay House radio show and cannot recall who said it. Therefore, it's not an exact quote but the essence is there.

"If your best thinking got you were you are today and life isn't working, it's time to get thinking from some place else."

Today's question:

Where has your best thinking got you? Are you fulfilled in this place? Does what you do nourish you?

About me:
My best thinking took me to owning my own coaching practice. I enjoyed it for quite some time and loved being my own boss. However, for some time now I have had a strong desire to make more of a difference in the world. Give back more.
My husband gave me an amazing gift a while back. He was given the opportunity (from his university) to download 3 career guides for any industry. He got me the 'Save The World' one. He knew that I wanted to make a difference and he thought this might shed some light on working for Not For Profit's or Non Goverment Organisations. His best thinking often blows me away with its clarity. He knew what I wanted even before I did. He knew that being my own boss was no longer nourishing me. I am a people person people and I know that I would so love to work with others!
I am beginning to pick apart the industry and am loving what I am finding. It's exciting!!!! Everyone working towards a common goal and not just for the money or the "just a job", "just paying the bills" kind of way. Actually being of service to the community. Wanting something more for others than you want for yourself.
I would love to continue with my coaching practice but perhaps on a part time basis and most definitely in a new way (more on this in future posts).

Difficulties

Today's Quote:

"The seeds of wisdom, peace and wholeness are within each of our difficulties." Jack Kornfield

Question:

What could some of your difficulties be teaching you?


About me: I have faced many difficulties recently. I have changed so much as a person and continue to change every day. It's good change and it wasn't until I began reading A Path With Heart by Jack K that I realised that my spiritual practice is growing as a result of these difficulties, changes and the questioning of everything in my life. It is actually great to be pushed into new places and seek out new paths. I am in a place of contemplation and meditation of what may be coming into my life next.
Unsure and not even thinking of sharing with the world my ideas of what may happen is a theme I have to get comfortable with. One of the main parts of me before was sharing too early. Only to have people be confused. Not that I am living my life for other people but people can become wary if a person changes too much right in front of them. One thing I will say....I am excited about my future. I am growing every day in this beautiful life.

Storms

Today's quote:

"Nature doesn't create a storm that never ends."~ Dr Wayne Dyer

Today's question:

What is going on in your life that you believe will never end?

About me:
I have been going through so many storms lately. Internal storms that bring with them strange and new feelings that are not always welcomed. Changes are occurring rapidly and they push and coax me into new places of utter exploration. I am detaching from things I once held so dear and close. The port in my storms is the love my husband continually throws my way. I am so very grateful for this every day.
I so needed the time away with my family but gosh it's hard to leave them. I lived without the very person I cherish for 2 and a half weeks. It was hard but it has brought us even closer, something which I didn't believe could happen. Thank God for LOVE. x
