The family and friends that you’ve been waiting to see all year are finally arriving with a loud clatter of holiday cheer! You still have much to do and are beginning to feel some frustration instead of the joy you desire. Your challenge for today is to release the frustration and fully enjoy your family and friends.
One of the ways I release frustration is to think of a time of ecstatic engagement, a time when all was going “my way” and I felt on top of the world. A time of ecstatic engagement for me was wining an award for arbitration against a very formidable law firm. When I received the award, I was ecstatic, I felt like I would burst wide open with joy.
Your time of ecstatic engagement might be a wedding, birth of a child, receiving a degree, returning to school… You decide and remember the feeling you got at that time. Now, why am I asking you to remember a time of ecstatic engagement? Because you get to create this feeling as often as you like any time you like.
Day 36 So, today when things seem to be getting out of hand, challenges are cropping up everywhere and the joy you desire seems elusive. Remember that on ‘top of the world’ feeling, feel joy in the moment and see the challenge as an opportunity.
