THE DAILY SPARK

SHOW RESPECT

Show respect to people even when they don’t deserve it.  Respect is a reflection of your character, not theirs.

Quote by Dave Willis.

REFLECTION:

  • Is it challenging to show respect for someone you have no respect for?
  • What if you could shift to respect – knowing it is a reflection of who you are, not them.
  • How would this shift the interaction?

YOUR ACTIONS

THE DEEDS YOU DO MAY BE THE ONLY SERMON SOME PERSONS WILL HEAR TODAY. 

Quote by St. Francis of Assisi

REFLECTION:

  • What message are you sending to others by your actions now?
  • As you go about your day, be conscious of what message you are sending via your deeds.

MOVING TOWARD EASE

“Ease” isn’t the same thing as “easy.”  In fact, they’re often at odds,  Easy work is hardly worth our effort.  It can deaden us instead of giving us the chance to bring our best selves to life.  Ease, on the other hand, is the feeling of doing something worthwhile, and doing it well.

When we choose a project where the stakes are too high, where stress is our fuel, where conflict is at the heart of the work- we’re unlikely to find ease.  Ease is a combination of purpose, effort and skill.  It can feel like confidence, even if we’re not sure it’s going to work.  Especially then.  Change your project, change your future.

REFLECTION:

  • Is there a project that will bring your best self to life and is worthwhile doing?  What is it?
  • Does it have the elements of purpose, effort and skill?
  • Do you need to make a shift in a current project?
  • What would that future look like if you did?
