Inspiration Friday 2024.12.27

Inspiration: Happy Friday!
Today is the 362nd Day of 2024.

We have $362,000.00 today.
10% savings = $36,200.00
40% taxes = $144.800

This week I am expressing gratitude for these tax dollars being spent to support the Congaree National Park. Located in the state of South Carolina. The Congaree National Park was established in 2003. You will find among other wonders a bottomland forest with giant hardwoods and pines that create one of the highest tree canopies in the world. Learn more here.

How will you be spending the remaining $181,000.00 today?

HERE IS MY PLAN: Reflect and Calibrate

“Don’t worry about being worried. You’re heading out on an adventure, and you can always change your mind along the way and try something else.”  -Tracy Kidder

How are you showing up in the world?

It is the last Friday of 2024. As I reflect on this past year, I am grateful for the people in my life. Your connections allowed me the luxury to feel hope, love and possibilities. Because of our circle of friendship, I am available to choose to thrive during intense periods of change in human history. As well as finding peace as I navigate stages of personal grief. It was the first holiday season without my parents. Which created a mix of emotions that evoked reflection and choices. I feel a deep calling within myself to rise and be a better human. Daily I find myself asking the Conscious Question which is: “What is this trying to show me, the seeing of which will change everything?”  This practice helps me to get clear on my point of focus. Am I focused on fear or love? As we enter 2025 and face new adventures, remember that you are not alone. Celebrate, create, learn something new, love, wonder, enjoy more than you don’t, and lean into Mr. Rogers’s advice: “When you feel afraid or uncertain, look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” In this New Year, I hope you find your helpers and that others find a helper in you. Humanity is a choice.  How are you showing up in the world?

$100.00: Self-care. It is time to refresh and update supplies in my emergency “go bag.” I find peace in preparing for unexpected adventures with intention, curiosity, and a dose of wisdom. And I Love that!

$0 Priceless: Updating Your Living Intentions

“Whatever you do or dream you can do—begin it. Boldness has genius and power and magic in it.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

What if we focus more on what is working in our lives?

In the last few days of 2024, I invite you to consider dusting off and reviewing your Bucket List or Living Intentions. Let some things go. Add some new additions to your dreams. Share your Life Intentions with a safe person or safe group of people. Help others realize their life dreams. Do you know what you want? I am happy to help you get clear on your dreams and take actions to live a better life this year. May your self-love be greater than your self-doubt. I see your greatness rising.

“It’s kind of cool to know that,

Someone Somewhere

is having the best day of their life today.

Someone is hearing,

 “I Love You” for the first time today.

Someone is going to get,

the job of their dreams today.

Someone received,

some kind of good news today.

Tomorrow

it could be your best day, so keep going.” Anonymous

Be a better version of yourself in 2025.

$179,900.00: These dollars are for you. I am supporting one or more of your Living Intentions. What do you want? Be you, the one who knows the answer to that question. Be you, the one who is willing to ask for and receive assistance to bring your heart’s desires into reality. How open are you to living in a better world?

Respond to life with love. Repeat. What would it take? Be a better human now.

$1000.00: This week’s date with my husband includes spending a quiet evening together. We are making a homemade meal and enjoying the warmth of a fire as we have Conscious Conversations about life as we know it.

How loved can you stand it?

Flow Five Friday: Current “real” life expressions of gratitude, love, and contribution to wellbeing.

$5.00: this week’s five-dollar bill is inside the book called Abundant Ever After: Tools for Creating a Life of Prosperity and Ease by Cathy Heller. Someone will find this book inside one of the Free Little Libraries in my community.  I am choosing to be the energy of what works in life.

Five increments of time: This week I connected with friends and family to expand the joy of peace during the holiday season.

Being there; how does it get better than that? How are you “Flowing Five” this week?

Well-Being: Something that I am doing or not doing for self-care in real time.

I am reclaiming my Living Intentions with love. You will find me reviewing my current Living Intention list and then deleting, editing, and writing new ones that allow my heart to breathe, dream, and expand into living better in 2025.  What are you doing or not doing for self-care?

Planet Awareness: Contributing to the health of Earth.

Do you know about the Forest app ?

It is a productivity app that helps you stay focused by growing a tree while you work, study, or play with friends. How it works: Plant a tree and it will grow while you focus on your activity of choice. If you leave the app, your tree will die. As you play, you get more things done and earn points that can be used to provide trees for a nonprofit to plant in real life! Learn more about the nonprofit here.

Note: If you are interested, there are other productivity apps that help you plant gardens, trees, or help you to remember to relax as you tackle daily check list items.

Have more fun. Get things done. Be a better you and plant real trees.

What are you doing for the health of our planet?

Hold Space or Contribute to a Friends Life Intention:

This week I am requesting your support for one of my own Living Intentions. It reads: “I am someone who joyfully broadcasts my light into the world. Have you listened to the podcast that I am co-hosting?” My podcast co-host is Tara. We are celebrating a year of being on the air waves with our Conscious Conversations on the Connection Project 360 podcast. It currently ranks in the top 10% of worldwide podcast shows! One way that you can support my living intention is to listen to the podcast, give it five stars, and write a review. Then share it with your network of friends. As more people listen to the podcast the internet algorithms will generate access to additional audiences. The podcast is about the importance of knowing what you want, generating a Living Intentions list, sharing your list with trusted friends who are willing to support your dreams and finally providing encouragement to participate in more Conscious Conversations with others. Currently you will find 57 episodes on Spotify and Apple podcast sites to inspire you to live a life that you absolutely love. See link below for this week’s episode.

Choose joy. Be kind. Love others and strive to be a better human. What would it take?

Choose to feel good. Be Joy. 
Practice gratitude. Amplify Kindness. Expand Generosity. 
Ask, Receive, and Give with More Ease. 
Respond to life with Love.
