Where is your focus? What is your plan?

We all know how stressful life can be. Dealing with these moments can put us in a major mood. Recently I had a moment such as this concerning a job. I came in that day and it seemed everything was all out of whack. I found myself engaging in some negative conversation about the problem. (mistake number one). For a moment I forgot all about my plans. “Plan?” You may ask. Well the plan is, for one I have so many other great things going on in my life that are leading me to better things. The job is one tool to get me there, mainly because it is taking care of my living expenses for now. After I realized my mistake, when I got a moment I immediately sat down and wrote a list of all the things I liked about the job. This shift he energy so that I could feel grateful and have inner peace and clarity about what has going on that day. When we find ourselves in those moods from time to time, when can always shift to another emotion, there is a quote that states “Worry is a prayer to chaos”. This takes the focus off of worry. So remember the next time the job is stress ask yourself, “Where is my focus, What is my plan”? -Ilonda Clayton, Open Your Heart Life Coaching
