I recently made a change to my Guiding Star Slogan.
I started the year with this Slogan: Embrace magnificent abundance and navigate gracefully.
Six words. For me, they were powerful.
By April, this happened: Open to divine abundance.
Four words. Even more powerful.
Another morph occurred by August: Tune into divine abundance.
Still four words. Fresh and powerful.
Who cares? Me. I care. You should too.
Why? Because the words we say to ourselves matter. We hear those words and we live those words.
My original Slogan was a holdover from last year, when it worked magnificently. I was reminded to not only accept, but to also embrace all of the wonders life was giving me on a daily basis.
As 2018 has progressed, that Slogan wasn't working the same level of magnificence. So I thought about it. I discussed it with my Buddy. I pondered it while on my morning walks.
I needed to stay open. I could feel myself starting to shut down. I also needed to remind myself that abundance comes from someone or something bigger than me. In that regard, I view it as being divine. I do not have to apologize for this abundance, even though the little Midwestern girl inside of me still struggles with accepting all of the wonders I have been given in this life.
As I continued walking, I realized I was open to the abundance that surrounded me. I also realized I often let the abundance go right by. I didn't pay attention. I needed to pay attention, or, as I determined was best for me, to tune in.
So I changed my Slogan. It's powerful, it's divine, it's mine.
What's yours?
