One Balanced Life

I tend to go on and on about power of writing it down. Whether it is feelings, thoughts, dreams, action steps, etc. - our writing it down gets it out! We can release what we need to release, gain clarity, and bring attention to what we want and need to live fuller more satisfying lives. I won't get to woo-woo here - but believe this to be one of the most simple effecttive practices you can incorporate into your life. It is a powerful tool in supporting your journey to create the life you desire.

I learned about the practice of Birthday Lists on one of my favorite blogs, your write one thing down for every year of your life that you would like to have happen in your life. So for instance, I turned 38 in June and my list this year has 38 items. I've been doing this for several years and laugh come July when at the things I completed that I thought were "out there." Last year I wrote I wanted a new camera and within days made it happen. This year I wrote I wanted to compete (or complete) in a triathlon - and I've signed up. I also wanted a halter top and that is done too. Some things will take a little longer - like creating more consistency in my life - but I have a year!

Consider creating a list for yourself - there is something inspiring that each year as I grow older I get to do more, be more, learn more. Have fun with it.

PS I should have also put on my list - take swim lessons!
