“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi
We are facing familiar situations with an upgraded operating system. The ways in which we move, think, breathe, and interact are different. The world is coming back to us like a gift wrapped in a big, red bow. How are you opening it?
🎁 Are you ripping into the package to grab whatever is inside?
⚠️ Have you stopped yourself from getting too excited out of caution?
🙈 Do you feel stuck because you can’t see how to navigate our new world?
However you are coming back, it’s okay. Avoid putting judgment on yourself or others. We are all moving through our grief and fear and anticipation. If you need help, ask. If you need support, get to a professional. If you need a hug, open your arms. You are not alone in this experience.
Your goal for this week: Practice compassion with yourself! Have a conversation with someone you live with or work with about how you plan to address a current issue you’re facing. It’s time to handle it differently using your new operating system.
Make it a strong day!
