This morning, I woke up ready to start this week and conquer it. Even over the weekend, I still accomplished my goals from the Challenge.
I was mentioning to some of the dreemers that I think my mindset has finally switched over to enjoying the tasks instead of just crossing things off the list. They say it takes time to turn tasks into habits - but when it happens - look out!
Well that's how I was feeling. Amazing! Excited to get in the groove and stay there! I saw that 
Everything that could go wrong, did. So many times I wanted to just quit the workout and come back tomorrow for another shot. But then? I'd miss an entire day? Just because I was struggling?
Yes. I wanted to just quit. I was irritated and frustrated and felt like the deck was stacked against me. And then I remembered 
I pushed through, and I conquered!!! I felt SO good after the morning was over - everything that had been bothering me eventually got resolved, and I just smiled - thinking about how close I had been to throwing in the towel for no good reason.
Then, I decided, hmmm I might as well keep going with my tasks to get my gold star for the day. Now I'm on a roll! hehe So, I loaded up the meditation session on Supernatural - and I was standing on the edge of an active volcano, lava glowing, heat rising, absolutely beautiful.
I just started to take deep breaths in, admiring the scenery and marveling at the fact that I was feeling like I was actually there. How would I ever be able to actually do this, in real life? But here I was - relaxing, watching the birds circle high above me, sinking deep into the meditation. Coach Doc began the meditation, speaking straight to me. He talked about how at this moment, I was supposed to be there - listening to these words, preparing my mind and body for the change that was coming.
Have you ever started thinking about that? Preparing your mind for the unknown? Gearing up for a change in the wind?
What will it bring?
Have you been faithful to stay diligent in the waiting?
Have you been idle - or have you been using your gifts, honing them so that they're ready when some surprise reaches your doorstep?
All these thoughts and more flooded my thoughts as I hovered over this beautiful active volcano. I wanted to actually go back and listen to the whole thing again. It was SO good. I decided I wanted to share it with more people, but when I put it back on, they changed the scenery! haha So I didn't record it. I felt like it really was so special with that specific location.
However, all day long, I couldn't help but think that maybe that message was not just for me - but specifically for one or two other people. It's still nagging me that maybe it's meant for one of you. Maybe not - maybe it was just for me! hehe
But I'll go back and record it and the update this post with the video and tag any of you who want to hear it. Just leave me tag in the comment section and let me know that you'd like to hear that same message. It's only 5 minutes - so not too long! Not sure what it will mean to you. But for me - it was really special!
Either way, I do want to encourage anyone who's reading this to NOT stop pushing. Don't become idle in the quiet times. Right now, life is in a stand-still for so many of us, but we do NOT have to follow that pace. We can keep our spirits at the ready, active, and alert!
