Lewis Carroll, Purpose, & Time…

Just saw two blog posts this week that were so impactful to
me and so broadly applicable that I felt compelled to share
them both with you here.

The first began with the quote from Lewis Carroll –

“Cheshire Puss,” asked Alice. “Would you tell me, please, which
way I ought to go from here?”

“That depends a good deal on where you want to go,” said the Cat.

“I don’t much care where,” said Alice.

“Then it doesn’t matter which way you go,” said the Cat.
                               ~Lewis Carroll, Through the Looking Glass

This quote alone makes a powerful point.  I found it on
wonderful blog post from Jane Perdue which further delivers, in
just a few moments, key quotes & questions for designing your
life, and you can visit the post here.

Next, how many of you cringe or at least feel a bit bored when
the phrase “time management” comes up? 

And yet how many of you often experience “never enough time” or
at times feeling your energy and focus scattered and less effective
than you’d like it to be?

Well, Craig L. Sanders from right here in Michigan just sent me his
awesome and insightful post on this very subject, and he delivers
such refreshing clarity and insight that I’ve been percolating on
and practicing the ideas he gives already to powerful effect in
the last 24 hrs.  You can view his post here.

Would love to hear your own “take-aways” from the posts above. 

What impacted you the most?

What do you intend to take action on right away?

Look forward to hearing from you!

Shifting Paradigms…

While walking my daughter to sleep just before lunch, I was
pondering the Bob Proctor video I watched late last night on
shifting our paradigms – the “unseen” programs that run much
of our lives beyond our conscious awareness.

Ever wonder why, despite the best of intentions to change
something, you often find yourself falling back into the same
patterns over and over?

Well, as Bob explains so clearly (and many others before him
have indicated), much of our lives are run by subconscious
programming that we’ve accumulated over years.

The good news is, we can change that programming…and the
habits and patterns that arise from them.

But it takes both a desire and an intention to change, and
then a “recipe” of specific steps.

My question for you today is, what’s one area that you want to
change now?

Something in your health, your energy, your weight, your family
or relationships or how you spend your time, or perhaps your
finances or business results?

Next, what’s one step you can take, or new habit you can implement,
during the next 21 days to start shifting in this one area?

How about posting your decision, thoughts, or comments below –
I look forward to hearing from you.

Here’s to shifting our paradigms and creating more and more
consciously in our lives!

P.S. If you’d like to see the video from Bob Proctor and some of
his examples on how to shift your paradigms, you can do so here
(takes you to a registration screen that’s a bit “hypey” but the
content is really good).  Enjoy!
