When I was 10 the idea of being 21 thrilled me. Why? Because then I could drink and vote. That would be perfection.
LIFE Bits
Curiosity Thrilled the Cat
Curiosity has given me so much in life. Without that unbounding curiosity I’d know and feel so much less. Treasures abound with a curiosity-filled life.
Food Passion
I’m passionate about food. I’m especially passionate about eating healthy, organic food. That passion hopefully overcomes the passion for sugar and junk food I seem to have. I’ve gotten to the point that if I really like a food, I figure it must have sugar in it — and I’m usually right. 🙂
Your Mileage May Vary (YMMV)
Following your passion is the common advice given to people to help them on their path to success and happiness. I wonder, and hear others wonder, “How do you do that?” because I don’t always know which zeal to use on my path to accomplishment and satisfaction. You may have that same question or concern.
Activating Your Gratitude For More Energy
Do you have an attitude of gratitude? Is it energizing?
Wayne Dyer taught me a powerful lesson — after he died. He taught be about starting my day with gratitude in a way I’d never done before. It was much simpler than other approaches I’d practiced before. Consequently, it was more satisfying and energizing.
Transforming Your Life
You don’t have energy, you generate it. I liked that conviction when I first heard it, and have repeated it many times.
It makes total sense. As with any generator, you need specific things to generate your energy: fresh air, food, water, and the desire or attitude of energy. That last element may be the most important for living an energized life.
Rituals For An Energized Life
Are rituals part of your life? Maybe you’d like to better understand what I’m asking before you commit to an answer. In my way of thinking, a ritual is a prescribed or established rite, ceremony, proceeding, or service. Lots of things that happen in religious establishments qualify as rituals too, but that’s not specifically what I’m talking about here.
Knowing Your Worth
Self-respect may be the most valuable personal asset you have. Or should have.
For too many years I let my fear of punishment, or my concept of being a good sport or a professional, keep me from realizing my full potential. Too often I didn’t follow the path I knew to be right because of some misunderstanding of my role in the situation.
Can Curiosity Help You Change Your Habits?
While looking for news and science on the topic of using rewards to help you change your habits — or maybe others want to call your habits addictions — the concept of using curiosity to help you change your habits came across my screen. Really? Curiosity can help you break a bad habit?
Yes Energy
By nature and nurture, “yes” energy is an uphill battle. According to Alison Ledgerwood, our fundamental view of the world tends to tilt toward the negative. That leads me to believe that being positive is an uphill battle, at least for most people.
