It’s difficult to be out of control.   Not that we have all that much control anyway, but when we are faced with the unknown, especially during world and life-changing events, we want to believe we can control something.

And that’s the good news,  we can —  our thoughts, our attitudes, our actions.  All within our control and under our power to orchestrate.   There’s beauty and satisfaction in taking charge of what is within our sphere to handle.  I’ve started reminding myself to take a deep breath when I get caught up in ‘what if’ thinking and then say aloud — I let go and trust I’m in good Hands.  I then try to go about my daily life and do my best to let it flow — and some days seem a little easier than others, and that’s okay.

There’s comfort and assurance in knowing the world is spinning perfectly on its axis in timing orchestrated outside our ordinary mathematical ability to calculate.  And that’s the calming wave that will wash over you when you realize that you’re only required to do your part, and that you don’t have to carry the world on your shoulders!

Get out your journal and a pen and jot down 3 things you are grateful for, 3 things you know you can control and 3 things you’re choosing to let go and give up worrying about.

Any active part we take in choosing our day will bring great rewards.  Peace of mind will come.  Maybe in just little snippets at first, but then it will grow steadily into a protective covering over our mind.

When the ‘Breaking News’ headlines bombard you day in and day out, it’s hard to not be drawn away into the sinkhole of chaos.

It is chaotic time currently, and it’s difficult. It’s not SO difficult though that you can afford to turn your eyes and heart away from your dreams and plans. Your deep-soul desires.

That’s where the relief comes in. When you focus forward, while attending to and paying attention to the present, but not allowing it to CONSUME you, order returns.

Three simple reminders:

• Limit time devoted to continuing news and redundant broadcasts.  Listen, keep abreast of important information, but set limits.
• Make time, not FIND time, but MAKE time to mediate, pray, get calm.   Journal your thoughts and journal your insights. You’ll look back at that journal and be amazed at what you successfully moved through.
• Stay connected to your support system via innovative methods.   Find those willing to encourage, support, comfort and uphold — curate your comforters and those you allow access to your mind-space.

Whatever dreams, goals or plans seem to have been upended, trust that as you calm yourself and focus forward, your life will follow suit.  This too shall pass.

It’s now about ignoring the obvious, it’s about CHOOSING what you want to be front and center right now.

Focus Forward.

With time at a premium for everyone, what grabs your attention the most — what people are standing against or what people are standing for?

You can waste time fighting matters that have little or nothing to do with you.  It’s easy to get drawn in on the fight, but is it worth your time?  Your energy?  Your attention?

Probably not.

Wisdom tells you to choose your battles carefully.  Walk past the fray, the argument the upset.  You’ve got better things to do with your time.

Take a positive stance on the arenas in your life that matter — be known as the FOR person, rather than the antagonist AGAINST.  There’s enough devil’s advocates ready to jump up and protest.

BE WHAT YOU ARE FOR, not what you are against.

Reminding ourselves to focus our time, attention and energy on what we are FOR leaves us energy to spare and a sense of accomplishment for time intentionally spent.

Do you need to take a break?

There are times that as we have shifted into overdrive, we’ll notice it’s all good, momentum is sweet and we’re riding the tailwind.

Trust you’ll also know when to shift out of ‘doing’ and slip into just ‘being.’ You can only peddle so fast for so long. Get off the bike of your life events, put the kickstand down and take a replenishment break. . When you were a kid you might have just laid the bike next to curb, sat down and took a breather right there. Pick up that mindset again — trust the time off the bike gives you strength to get back on the bike!

You’ll likely find you have more energy, renewed zest and natural balance — signalling a natural desire to surge ahead again.
