Hello!
It’s Day 11 of 21 Days of Love in Action! 🙂
You might recall at the start of our journey I suggested you set some goals for our 21-day journey.
See these two earlier messages for more info
It’s always good to have clear and concise expected outcomes at the start of any journey or project. This way you are more likely to remain focused on achieving your goals and meeting your own expectations. With no goals or plan whatever happens is what you will achieve. With no road map on any journey, you end up where you end up!
So, as we are mid-way through our 21 days, I suggest you review your goals – hopefully they are written, and see where you are with them. If you have not set any goals, it’s not too late.
As spreading love is our group objective, connect your goals to the power of love in one or more of the five vital venues of your life: Those are self, relationships, home, work/school/business and community/place of worship. How can love help you in these venues?
The key is to see love as more than an emotion we share in relationships. It is a verb; it is action; it is spiritual and when infused into any aspect of your life, you find more and lasting peace, joy and productivity.
If you are not where you hoped to be with your goals, try to determine why and make the necessary adjustments in your daily schedule or approach.
If you are, celebrate with a gesture of gratitude and appreciation.
Some suggestions:
1) Review your goals and assess; if no goals written yet, write a few.
2) Determine adjustments if needed.
3) Visualize the outcomes you seek as well as the action steps required to achieve them.
4) Check in with someone – an accountability partner/friend, let them know how things are going.
5) Affirm, affirm, affirm – speak your outcomes in positive affirming statements [for example, “I am an attentive and loving listener” or “I love who I am”] Affirm passionately, often and whenever possible out loud.
6) Re-commit to your goals, after revising, if necessary.
7) Decide on a series of action steps required to achieve your goals and commit to taking them over the next 10 days.
Don’t forget to stay positive and optimistic…yes, we do tend to forget the importance of this powerful truth sometimes!
Have fun as you spread your excitement for life and love all around you.
Wishing you an abundance of peace, love and joy.
