As part of a recent Spirituality Night (which we have once a week), we were asked to reflect on what is truly important in our lives and whether or not we live our lives in accordance with that. The final activity was to make some index cards with some mantras or gentle reminders that could help us to stay focused on some of those important things in our lives. This was actually perfect timing, because well, frankly, I often need a reminder of these things. Also, I have actually been wanting to do something like this for awhile, but this gave me the motivation to do it! I think I was a little too enthusiastic about the project however, and ended up making some 15 or so instead of the requisite one card. I suppose that is sort of indicative of my personality and probably the reason that I need so many mantras in the first place! Nevertheless, I have always found mantras, quotes, etc. to be both inspiring and helpful. Ever since "mental training" exercises back in high school cross-country/track, I have been a believer in the power of postive thinking. I wanted to share my list of mantras. Maybe if you find this activity to be helpful you too can dedicate a portion (or all in my case) of a wall to remind yourself about the important things, to affirm yourself and finally to help keep things in perspective.
Prioritize people.
Don´t Settle. Go Deeper...
Focus on the Good.
Fill your life with love.
Faith must be based in love. Go gently...Act lovingly.
Be Flexible. Life is full of surprises...be open to them!
I AM STRONG!
I am so much more than Miss Ashlen.
Reach out.
Balance.
What will you do with this one wild and precious life?
Be Intentional. Be.
What´s really important...?
Patience.
