Beach Walk 734 – Updating the Database

April 20, 2009 | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , |

Updating my database: servers do it automatically every few minutes in some cases- the Internet is so smart, it knows we are constantly changing!

One of the things I am changing is feeling under-appreciated. I had this awareness that I get my satisfaction and pleasure from what I am doing in the moment. Yet I too often have front-loaded and back-loaded things with expectations. They impact the energy and the experience itself. I am choosing to give up that habit as I am a pleasure seeking person! I have re-purposed the pity pot I used to have into a compost bin where my “I am done with that” thoughts go to be reconfigured. Now I ask myself, “Rox, are things being done to you or for you?” This changes the energy in a heart beat. (Because I understand now it’s all for me. And it’s all good.)

Beach Walk 667 – Give and Take

July 28, 2008 | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

I am embarking on a plan to get more balance in my giving and taking.

I’ve tried this before, and I keep ending up on the over-giving side of things in many areas of my life. I am realizing I have some judgment hurdles to dismantle if I am going to be successful at this. But just like exercise, it’s important to work the neglected muscles, not just the favorite ones. Of give and take, which action seems easier to you?
