Where are you not listening to yourself?
What’s on the back burner in your life?
Where are you not taking action in alignment with your values?
Where are you ignoring your commitments?
Where are you ignoring your spouse, kids, colleagues, or boss?
In this Age of Distraction, it’s so easy to justify ignoring what really matters.
We extinguish trash can fires in our daily lives and ignore the smoldering slow-burn within our core that eats away at our integrity, our vitality, and our soul.
Let the trash can fires burn. They’re contained.
It’s the slow-burn of self-disregard that needs to be handled NOW.
It’s the quiet dissolving away of our self-value, our partner’s trust, our kids’ hopes, our soul’s desires that matter more than the fire of the moment.
The fire of the moment likely isn’t worth your well-being. It’s likely not worth selling out on yourself, your values, your commitments, your hopes, your dreams. It’s likely not worth selling out on your family and friendships.
I live a pretty intentional life, yet last week my own coach showed me where I've had something meaningful on the back burner for myself.
We go decades without giving attention to the back burner. So it fades. It fades from our awareness. It fades from our realm of possibility.
Yet it’s still there, waiting for you to choose it. To feed it. To give it attention and care, love and action.
It’s the faithful dog part of your soul that won’t ever leave. It patiently waits while you busy yourself with much less meaningful things.
Bring it to the front burner. There’s room. You can handle work and life and this thing.
So I ask again, and this time really consider the question:
(I considered the question this morning myself, and it opened me up to a lovely feeling and beautiful clarity.)
Where are you not listening to yourself?
We’re never really listening to ourselves, or to the people in our lives, or to Spirit as deeply as we could.
Admit it, and then change it.
You deserve more. The people in your life deserve more.
The time is Now.
Get your real stuff off the back burner and feed it some life.
Much Love. ❤️
