STRONG AND STEADY

     Life has a way of getting busy. It's not unusual to be operating in multiple directions at the same time, and multiple emotional dimensions as well. When faced with lots of life going on, it's easy to become speedy energetically, to talk faster and drink a little extra caffeine and be "jacked up."But perhaps, a better attitude for the business of life is super-calm. It's worth considering. From that space, we can make our decisions from an earthed and thoughtful position.
     There's something addictive and exciting about handling multiple situations at once. It's challenging and jazzy; phone calls here, meetings there, business, family, the day's to-do list. This multi-tasking may be thrilling on some level but it burns us out. For the long haul we need strong and steady. It's a mindset. It's a decision not to be drawn off course. It's focused and grounded and sustainable and smart.

I catch myself getting frazzled and stop. I need to be strong and steady for the long haul.
