Flow and Rhythm
“To me it all starts with values. To be a values led organization is critical. To be a values led individual is critical.” Chris Thomsen
What do you know to be true about you? Ponder for a moment or two before we move forward today as you ask yourself once again, what is your best superpower?
… I will pause while you think about it.
These are the moments during our time on the planet for not shrinking back but in fact to use those superpowers we possess to make the world around us a better place.
Corona virus numbers are spiking once again as people try to forget it’s still in our midst and the election looms heavily before us. In just hours the fate of our country will be decided, and in its wake many people are not sleeping, and have not been sleeping as angst is at an all-time high.
This is the time my friend not to medicate to the point of distraction but to pull out your amazing superpowers and find your own flow and rhythm. To give all you can give to help this planet heal in all the ways that are so desperately needed.
Your superpower contains a form of leadership within it. The ability to raise up and show how much you care by not placing yourself first, although you should be taking really, really good care of your body, mind and spirit .
Worrying serves absolutely no one. No one. Most especially not you.
Today is the day you can change your attitudes in how you will move through whatever lies ahead. Never in my lifetime for sure has there been such uncertainty about what tomorrow will hold. Never.
One thing I can control is my thoughts about what I need to do for bringing my superpowers to life. My morning practice, my Morning Momentum, is the glue that holds so much of my own sanity together.
I spend a lot of time alone these days in the physical sense. My husband is off at his corporate job all day leaving me here at home with my beloved pooch Luna. When I went with Ed to drop of our ballots last Wednesday (see our fun reel here) I realized it was the first time I had even left the house in the entire week since I returned from California.
The amazing thing in all of this is that I didn’t even notice because of the full life I have here being able to do the work I love from home. Talking via phone and Zoom, working with the amazing Entrepreneurs that have found their way into my life.
Recently I started doing some volunteer mentoring work for an organization called Energize Colorado, a non-profit organization started up since the pandemic began. The hours I donate to this organization fill my soul because I know that the help that I am giving these mostly women entrepreneurs is making a difference in their life.
That is where we all need to think differently in asking ourselves how we can help each other no matter the results of tomorrow’s election because we still have each other no matter what.
Recently I interviewed Chris Thomson CEO of Student Works, an organization that empowers college students to learn the ropes of running a business in most extraordinary ways. His long track record at the helm of this company is proof that when you get others to believe in their superpowers… anything is possible.
You can learn more in today’s podcast – Leaders of Tomorrow – the title taken from Chris’s ongoing podcast of the same name. I love the idea of empowering our next generation to get it right.
As we head into what is no doubt going to be dicey and nail-biting days ahead…keep your cool, remember your superpower and please, please, please get some sleep.
I will be thinking of you and would love to have you hit reply on this email and tell me what your greatest superpower is that will get you flowing in the right direction. Thank you for all that do to make a difference in the world.
P.S. Today's pics are of the Blue Moon moonset. Top one from this weekend and the bottom one from this very morning! Think it's safe to say we do live in a beautiful world!
