Motivation Monday!

"The authentic self is the soul made visible."
Sarah Ban Breathnach: Inspirational author

Are you true to yourself? What about your friends? Family?? For many of us the "true you" remains hidden most of our lives. Simply imagine that your true self was exposed, all the time, everywhere, and everyone discovered the true you?! What a profound impact you could have on yourself and everyone you know!

How do you find that "true you"...?? I don't have all the answers on that one. I'm just an amateur myself, but for me this is what I've done in search for my simple self...First, I must be open to finding the truth; afterthat, its a lifelong process that begins with one step. Once you take that leap of faith, it unfolds willingly.

This takes reflective time, input from wise sources,(people, books, cd's) being in nature, meditation, yoga, quiet time..to just sit and listen. Listen to your soul, your hearts desires...

Hearing those sources can be difficult at times, especially with all the silent chatter that goes on between our ears...So, when you hear it while you are trying to listen to your soul, just ask it to go away.

Enjoy being contemplative, quiet, and wait for the truth to surface. You can ask yourself questions, or simply be still. The truth will come....The result can be an amazing powerful listening experience.

Do not listen to the fear that speaks so loudly at you or the voice that says that you can't do that. You CAN do that.

Be still, be authentic, be who you really are. Don't be afraid to show that person to others. Come alive!

Focus on your unique goals, needs, and challenges, and take the steps for transforming your day into a masterpiece!

Go do the thing that you want to do...set yourself free and be in the moment...for moments pass and then they are gone forever...

Be well, Be happy,
Coach Shelley
