The BEST Place to be at all times

We all want to accomplish.

Be productive.

Reach our goals.

And make a difference.

And sometimes it feels like we're NOT doing that.

Sometimes we think we SHOULD be doing more. Being more productive. Taking more action. NOT being okay with the way our life is right NOW.

And I have never seen that be positive motivation to actually make other things happen.

It is not a place of creative creation when I tell myself:

"Why am I not doing more?"

"What am I NOT doing?"

"Why do I feel this way?"

"Why is my every day not super day?"

"Why can't I be more like (projected perfect person)?"

These thoughts cause us more stress, make our brains constrict more, and KEEP us in an unproductive place.

But what I HAVE learned and seen be SUPER effective, is to SLOW DOWN in the moment. And be OKAY with what's right HERE. Right NOW. Even if that seems like NOTHING. BE with the nothing. Be OKAY with the nothing.

There is nothing wrong with that.

When I make myself wrong for having the day I am having, I make myself feel worse and that leads to more of what I don't want.

But when I let life just BE, and I don't HAVE to make anything happen, it allows the brain to relax and get creative.

Right NOW, in this moment, what do I want to do? Is there an action I want to take? If not, then there's no problem. And if yes, then go take it.

From a relaxed and accepting place so much more can be created. From a stressed and guilty place of 'should's', the chances are much less likely.

Give yourself permission to live in the moment and HAVE the experience you are having. You can only create from there. And as Winnie the Pooh so wisely said, "Sometimes the very best somethings come from doing Nothing."
