Your Personal Power is...

Your personal power is in your self-care…You may be wondering…how is my personal power IN my self-care?  I used to think that if I took time for self-care, that pesky chore that apparently, I’m supposed to do everyday-along with the one hundred others…I’ll have less time for the things, the really important things, I need to get done…like my book, my content, my work, my clients, my house-cleaning, my workout…

The truth is, though, when I decided to get serious about self-care, to commit to giving me the deep self-care…spending time with myself, my feelings, alone developing a deep friendship with me, I had no idea how my life would change…

For the deeper self-care, I had to take time from phone calls, from coffee dates w friends (not all LOL), from work, from client calls, from doing, doing, doing.  I was really afraid that if I wasted time being alone with myself, doing the journaling, the deep care, the asking for guidance and waiting for the answers, the reading…that it would really set me back in my business and home.

I was quite surprised to realize that when I decided to make the commitment to myself, even though I thought I’d fall behind, the exact opposite actually happened!  When I surrender to take that time for me…it opens the floodgates of ideas, creativity, innovation, along with wonder, JOY, anticipation, calm, peace! I’m not as anxious, hurried, hustling…

I found that my personal power comes directly from deep self-care!
