2024 Weekly Wisdoms
January: Clarifying Intentions
“Begin with the end in mind.” – Stephen R. Covey
When you feel your best, you do your best. Remember to make yourself and your well-being a priority.
Give yourself permission to want what you want.
Tap into your inner truth, that deeper knowing inside of you to get clear on what you really want.
“THE REALITY: You are not getting what you want because your intentions are mixed, unclear, or contrary to what you say you want. When you clarify your intentions, your desired results will follow.” – Alan Cohen
February: Self-Care & Health Planning
Take inventory of the things in your life that give you energy vs. drain your energy. Then begin to prioritise the things that fill up your cup, and let go of the things that feel heavy.
Ways to boost your energy levels:
– Eat more fresh foods, like fruits and veggies.
– Get out in nature.
– Limit screen time.
– Get 8 hours of sleep.
– Breathe slower and deeper.
– Be grateful.
Emotions aren’t always logical. Sometimes you may FEEL a certain way, but you’re not sure WHY, and that’s okay. Allow yourself to feel those feelings anyway, without judgment.
“When mind, body, and spirit are in harmony, happiness is the natural result.” – Deepak Chopra
March: Conscious Leadership
“Good leaders organize and align people around what the team needs to do. Great leaders motivate and inspire people with why they’re doing it.” – Marillyn Hewson
When you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, pause and ask yourself not, “What do I need to do?” but “What do I need to do right now?”
“Leadership is not so much about technique and methods as it is about opening the heart. Leadership is about inspiration — of oneself and of others.” – Lance Secretan
Take a moment to feel gratitude for yourself, the work that you do, and the value you bring to your life and the lives of others.
April: Clearing Limiting Beliefs & Your Environment
“Life has no limitations, except the ones you make.” – Les Brown
Your environment impacts your energy. Today, look around your space and do one thing to improve it. Purge an item you no longer want, put away the laundry that’s been sitting out, or just make your bed. These small acts of keeping your space tidy and at peace will promote the same peacefulness within you.
“You have the power in the present moment to change limiting beliefs and consciously plant the seeds for the future of your choosing. As you change your mind, you change your experience.” – Serge King
Your mind limits you to try to keep you safe, but your soul knows better – it is limitless because it wants you to be happy and free.
“There is one grand lie – that we are limited. The only limits we have are the limits we believe.” – Wayne Dyer
May: Cash, Wealth Care, & the Bottom Line
“It’s good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it’s good, too, to check up once in a while and make sure that you haven’t lost the things that money can’t buy.” – George Lorimer
Find balance with spending vs. saving. Just as your body needs a balanced diet to thrive, optimum financial health requires harmony in your financial choices to sustain long-term well-being.
Remember to express gratitude for your financial situation, regardless of its current state. Gratitude enhances your emotional well-being and helps cultivate a positive mindset towards money.
“Abundance is not something we acquire. It is something we tune into.” – Wayne Dyer
June: Courageous & Clear Communication
(Setting boundaries in work and at home, language)
Engage in conversations with genuine curiosity to better understand perspectives that may differ from your own. Being open to diverse ideas will help you better connect with others and expand your knowledge through thoughtful communication.
“The only thing that guarantees an open-ended collaboration among human beings…is a willingness to have our beliefs and behaviors modified by the power of conversation.” – Sam Harris
Remember that words have power so be sure to choose yours wisely.
“Conversation isn’t about proving a point. True conversation is about going on a journey with the people you are speaking” with – Ricky Maye
July: Compassion and Emotional Intelligence
“The emotional brain responds more quickly to an event than the thinking brain” – Daniel Goleman
Let compassion be your compass in navigating the terrain of health and well-being. Guiding you towards choices that honour your body mind and spirit.
“The only way to change someone’s mind is to connect with them from the heart” -Rasheed Ogunlaru
True leadership begins with compassion – the ability to see the humanity in others, to empathise with their struggles , and to lead with a heart that seeks to uplift and empower.
