It’s the 15th of August 2024, ‘day 1’ of my 365 day project.
I have great plans for my life which never seem to get off the ground. I feel like I’m spinning my wheels more often than not and need something to give me a little traction. I love projects, so I’m seeing the next 365 days of my life as a project. The goal of this project is to be more mindful in each moment as I make tiny changes and approach my life from a more enlightened angle by;
- Choosing my health over my food addictions
- Choosing to move my body even when I don’t feel like it, am tired or don’t see the point
- Choosing to let go of all the excess
- Choosing to further my quest for knowledge over binge-watching series after series
- Choosing to nurture relationships I have with family and friends
- Choosing to when to fast instead of eat because I know how much my body thrives on it
- Choosing to go to bed before 11pm because I know how much better I feel if I do
- Choosing to go within instead of wasting time on social media
- Choosing to see the best in me instead of comparing myself to others
- Choosing to create without needing a reason to do so
- Choosing to process emotional pain instead of repressing it
- Choosing to embrace and integrate my shadow side instead of fearing it
- Choosing to focus on the best in people
- Choosing to live life aligned with my deepest values
- Choosing to be intentional about my words–words have power
- Choosing to embrace the opportunities that feel right and saying no to others
- Choosing to be kind and smile just because I can
- Choosing to spend my money mindfully on things I really need
- Choosing to nurture my passion projects
- Choosing to declutter my home instead of hanging onto unloved, useless things
- Choosing to declutter my mind through meditation and organisation
- Choosing to celebrate the beauty of my soul in every moment
- Choosing to retreat from the negativity of social media and be more selective
- Choosing to do the work –The Great Work, even though I know it will take many lifetimes
- Choosing to be selective about what I allow into my mind
- Choosing to be selective about who I allow into my life
- Choosing to take time every day to simply ‘be’ and not have to be doing
- Choosing to learn about everything that sparks my interest
- Choosing to see the signs, symbols and synchronicities in everyday life
- Choosing to inspire and encourage others
- Choosing to read for the pleasure of it
- Choosing to let go of judgement
- Choosing to live my love with a heart full of gratitude
- Choosing to let go of old dreams that were never meant to be
- Choosing to take responsibility for my actions and stop making excuses
- Choosing forgiveness over the alternative
- Choosing to see my biggest struggles as my greatest teachers
Afterall, the choices we make in each moment create our lives.
