“10 Days to make a habit” ~ I hear that phrase
echo in my head as I’ve heard Jay Leno say to one of his celebrity guests on
the Tonight Show…But why is it so difficult to make the changes
necessary for a positive habit to stick? A new year started not too long ago
and I’ve allowed my life to remain the same and let important changes fall on
the wayside. Each morning, I wake up hoping to fulfill possibilities that I’ve
left open ended whether it’s simply reading or cleaning/organizing, jewelry
making/painting, exercising and making time for friends, to doing my QT’s. But
what I end up doing after work is falling victim to exhaustion ~ I let
everything fall to the floor; I scarf down my dinner and sit around catching up
on my DVR; numb to reality and escaped to every other televised story but my
own-then Repeat for the next day and next. I easily neglect the vital changes I
should be paying attention to…but how do we change this discipline?
I know that everyone holds their own “spiritual
gifts” and I believe mine to be my inner creativity of words and speech. Deep
within I’m eager to write and inspire but I don’t do it enough to impact
anything big or small. But with our daily lives being so typical and repetitive
how do we break out of this pattern of dullness and find our days to be worth
living? What makes each day special for you? And how do we rediscover our
passion when it remains hidden from our sight?
