When doing something that you love, any action that comes is inspired action. There are no 'shoulds', or a feeling of dread because you have to do it. But have you ever had those days when you're doing the thing that you love, but it's just not flowing or fun?
Maybe you blame it on your boss, a difficult co-worker, client or even the weather. I have noticed that there are times when I'm salsa-dancing and I'm not having my usual awesome time, and I can hear myself and others saying, 'There's no one to dance with, the music isn't any good tonight. It's too hot in here.'
But, we always have two choices. We can use the external circumstances of our lives and other people as an excuse to not feel joyful, or we can decide that no matter what happens, or who we encounter, we are going to feel good.
Start doing these 3 things every day, and watch your life change!
1. Set up an intention for your day or before you do an activity to feel good no matter what (even the weather or traffic!) You don't have control over anything outside of you anyway!
2. Throughout your day, pay attention to your thoughts or words that are coming out of your mouth. Consciously choose another, more positive thought, or close your mouth and stop speaking. And if you need to walk away from someone who's having a negativity party, just do it!
3. Refocus on the things around you that you appreciate or that you enjoy. You will find that in no time at all, you can shift how you feel. And when you feel better, 'surprisingly', the circumstance or person that was bothering you, no longer does, and your joy starts shining through again.
Remember! Nothing or no one can ever affect your true joy. YOU get to decide in every moment how you want to feel. Do you want to feel your joy, or do you want to give your power away to things you have no control over?
I choose JOY, every time.
