I'm feeling buoyed by the positive changes that I've been able to imagine, set intentions to accomplish, set steps to put in place, and keep choosing and following through again and again.
And if that can happen in some areas of my life, suddenly I assume that's true of all aspects.
So it is somewhat startling and deeply frustrating the ways that I cannot gain traction in changes that are important and potentially life-improving.
I am happily going to yoga almost every day, yet I cannot seem to manage to go running once a week.
I have given up cream and sugar in my morning coffee, but I cannot not eat 3-5 desserts per night.
I use my meditation app every morning, but I still find myself a stress case in most other circumstances throughout the day.
I sing to my kiddo every night before bed, but I keep choosing Youtube videos before bed instead of my library books on kindle (tick tock...).
Probably dwelling more on the wins and less on the disappointments would bring more happiness and more successful change.
As a human, I'm primed to focus on the negative and the "problems" to be solved. As a spiritual being, I practice gratitude and celebration. Begin again, begin again...
