The fun thing about my life is that I’m always learning new things.  I enjoy reading and taking classes of all kinds whether they are for personal or professional growth.  I also enjoy meeting new people.  I always learn something new when I talk to new people.  It’s awesome to be on this spiritual path.  As I constantly learn, I notice my daily life changes with new knowledge.

Lately, I feel as though I’m starting all over in many areas of my life.  Do you ever notice how you’ll be on one path for a long time, thinking, “This is it!  I have it figured out.”  Then, all of a sudden, something will come along that will challenge me to grow.  Or, I’ll see where things are not necessarily working for me.  I know it’s a wake up call to move forward into further growth. 

The first area of change is career-related.  For a while, I’ve been studying healing modalities and transitioned about 3 years ago into giving intuitive readings.  In the process, I’ve discovered I really want to be of service in a more hands-on way.  I would love to do something like teach yoga or meditation.  It would be great to assist others in making positive, lasting changes in their lives.  Plus, it would provide them with empowerment.  I’m all about empowerment.  I can give readings until the cows come home, but often, I’m left wondering if my work has had a lasting effect of any kind.  I know it’s not my process and it’s others’ lessons, but I still wonder.

I’m researching life coaching programs right now too.  I’m considering going back to school and getting certified in this area.  I know it will provide further tools not only for me to help others, but for me to grow.  That is the wonderful thing about my path is that I learn and grow so much in the process.

My free time has changed quite a bit as of late too.  I no longer watch television.  I decided to break up with the television so I can read instead.  My brain is happy because it is actually doing something productive!  I also have been immersing myself in positive books, learning programs, CD’s, and the like.  It feels great! 

I also took up guitar at the end of 2007.  Earlier this month, I decided it was time to take lessons so I can learn more.  I’m so excited to be learning guitar because I absolutely love music that is guitar-heavy!  I’m so stoked. 

My daily structure and routine has changed considerably in the past two months.  I used to spend a lot of time surfing the Internet researching future-oriented things such as classes and trips.  I decided to allocate one hour per week for these sorts of things.  It is all too easy to be consumed by information and well, the Internet is brimming with it.

I also used to spend much time writing emails.  I decided to not start my day by answering emails.  I used to get very sidetracked by starting my day on-line.  I see that I’m much more productive if I get on-line later in the day after business hours.  I am starting to treat my business more like a full-time job.  So, I also don’t answer the phone during business hours to talk about socially-oriented things…unless I have time to do that.

I’ve also noticed in general that things and people that no longer serve me are gently falling away more and more.  I have created a vision of where I’m heading that is very clear.  So, energy follows my intentions–that which supports my vision stays in my life or is drawn to me and that which doesn’t nuture or sustain me just can’t fit in at all.

I’ve also become a bit of a meditator.  I get up each day at 7 a.m. and meditate briefly.  It jump starts my day.  I’m looking to start doing yoga after this meditation time too.  My mind is used to the idea, so I know my body will follow once I just do it. 

Action is definitely the key in life.  I have so many ideas floating around in my head most of the time.  Meditation has helped me to get a handle on these.  My mind feels clearer and more focused.  I notice my days are more organized, productive, and flowing.  It feels great!

New people and things are coming into my life.  It is truly a joy.  I know the human tendency is to resist change.  I am more peaceful with change because it feels good.  Scientists such as quantum physicists talk about how change is all there is or that change is the only constant in life.  Change is normal and natural.  Change is good for the soul.
