BOREDOM… SERENITY

Boredom is the feeling that everything is a waste of time; serenity, that nothing is.

REFLECTION:

  • How do you approach life…is it boring?
  • How much serenity is in your life?
  • How can you cultivate more serenity in your life?

BEAUTIFUL

To be beautiful means to be yourself.  You don’t need to be accepted by others.  You need to accept yourself.

Quote by Thich Nhat Hanh

REFLECTION:

  • Do you see yourself as beautiful?
  • Are you focused on being accepted by others?
  • Have you accepted yourself?
  • How can you be you? What does that look like?

AND ALSO CONVENIENT…

If you want a breakthrough, or something at the top of the rankings, or a skill that few have, or the chance to build something you’re proud of… it doesn’t pay to also require that it be convenient.

REFLECTION:

  • Is there a breakthrough, something you want to accomplish that is going to require extra effort… inconvenience?
  • Knowing it won’t be ‘convenient’ how can you stick with this to see it through?
  • What adjustment in your mindset needs to happen to succeed?
