So I talk about intention all the time while teaching - its a simple clear vision of why you came to class and what you are looking to get out of it. This practice of setting a clear intention can then follow you out of the studio and transfer into your daily life. Isn't it important to have intention in the things we do daily? From going to work, cleaning the house or saying hello to a stranger...all things are better when they have meaning and purpose.
Well guess what? My intention of starting this little blog was to BLOG - and to say the least I have lost connection with that intention. As many times as I write "Blog post" on my weekly to do list I end up over thinking the process and then plan it for another day when I "know I'll have more undivided time" and I never get to scratch it off my list. Now going back and reading my first post....I wanted a place of simple authenticity...which is the opposite of over thought perfection.
During Teacher Training we practiced being our true self by giving up our fears and then acting through a committed statement. Of course all things are better when shared with a community. So today - as I currently sit in the back seat of a truck at the start of a seven hour snowmobiling road trip - I GIVE UP blogging (or not blogging) in the quest of perfection and I COMMIT TO posting fearlessly from my own true self.
Is there any task in your own life that could benefit from removing your own fears and setting a new way of being? Find out. "I give up __________________ and I commit to _________________!"
Be great.
