ACCEPTANCE
Have you ever noticed that what ever you resists persists? Let say for example your computer won’t work. Its late at night rather than get upset, just tackle it in the morning when you are fresh.. You will have a good night rest and wake up refreshed and raring to go. If you get angry it still won’t fix the computer and then your anger still persists..You get a lousy sleep and your computer still won’t work.
God Grant me the serenity to accept the thing I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.
My computer wouldn’t work and I wasn’t sure why. I had just started a seven hundred dollar on line course . I needed my computer. I borrowed others computers while mine was being worked on to listen to the lessons and I could not do alot of stuff without my own computer. The course was only 4 weeks and this happened in the first week of the course. It took two weeks to get my computer back. Now I have ten days to catch up , I probably cannot fit all the lessons in during this amount of time with my other work load.
Effectiveness
When I accepted the way it was and wasn’t, I was able to focus on what I had been able to accomplish and was very proud of myself. I may not be able to do everything in the course in the four weeks allotted. I can still learn and then retake the course a few weeks down the road. This attitude allowed me to accomplish what I could and be effective in other areas. Rather than resisting whats so I became creative and ended up finding another computer repair place that is reasonable and gives amazing service.
PERFORMANCE
I assert that when we accept things the way they are and the way they are not, it allows us to be open to new possibilities. Those new possibilities allow us to be more effective, which allows us to perform at a level that would not be possible if we resisted what was happening.
WATCH U TUBE CLAIRE MY last days (Unbelievable)
Go for it! I want on my grave stone she burned out instead of rusted out! What do you want them to say about you?
Ask yourself are your actions and speaking in alignment with what you are committed to? Look at what are the habitual patterns that have that commitment thwarted? Are you willing to take responsibility for when it doesn’t go that way you want or the way you expected and clean up your part? Are you willing to let go of Expectations of yourself and others? What are you not being truthful about to yourself and others.
Our thoughts can be like a junk drawer-we need to take inventory and get rid of what is not useful! (wendy b)
