CLARITY KICKSTART: April 29, 2013
“Life is a constant balancing act, and the bottom line is that I want to walk away from today and every other day with the sense that I knew and fulfilled my purpose.”
~ Angie Smith
Coaching Tip For The Week:
Did you close out yesterday feeling balanced and fulfilled? How about the day before that?
We’ve been given a lot of misconceptions about balance. The fact is, we each need to define “a balanced life” for ourselves. What I consider balance in my life may look like extreme imbalance to you.
But a common denominator for us all is a sense of purpose, of significance, of knowing that what we do each day matters. The fear of insignificance is one of the most rampant fears of our time.
This week, decide each morning one word that you want to describe you throughout that day. Set your intention to be “positive,” “joyful,” “centered,” or whatever word resonates for you that day.
Each evening, review your day and look for examples where you lived that word. You can then celebrate fulfilling your sense of purpose each day, which will bring with it a sense of balance – and significance.
