Aha-Phrodite - Paying Attention - What Works

Kaizen Muse Creativity Coaching uses 10 Muses (created by Jill Badonsky - The Muse Is In) who represent different aspects of ourselves and can be our beacon and light to shine the way through to explore ourselves and learn what really works for us.

I would love to introduce to you Aha-aphrodite, she is really pretty cool and I have called on her so often because one of my needs are that I often don't pay attention to what works. She is the Muse of paying attention and possibilities to awaken your passion for creativity, for life. She invites you to capture and savour your inspiration.

Often when we have spent many years trying to change the outside of ourselves and focusing on what does not work, we become so focused on these aspects that the negative takes over, which I have to say is actually 'normal'. For whatever reason it is a human trait until we actually just end up choosing something else that works for us. All part of a process and we have to start somewhere. So just know that you are not alone. Truly.

So Aha-phrodite offers, if you are experiencing low self confidence, to compassionately pay attention to how your confidence increases when you keep going. Pay attention to where you are getting it right.

The fact that you are reading this right now tells you that you are certainly keeping going. How many times you have you tried to change the outside of you to try to create the happiness, the life you want? I want to acknowledge you for showing up right now.

So, how would it be to focus on what works, for just 5 mins perhaps, or day dream and/or journal, where are you getting it right. Please try not to focus on weight or weight loss. Can I challenge you to think of between 1 - 3 things that work for you? That may be getting out of bed today, going for a walk, taking time out, cooking a meal, going for a walk, playing. It does not matter as long as it relates to the inside of you, nothing to do with anyone's opinion. 

You Get To, if you wish, if you don't, it does not matter! Maybe pay attention to see where you will find inspiration today what is making you laugh today.  You could 'Get To' do one thing to celebrate, acknowledge what you have come up with and if you have not come up with anything, you 'Get To' celebrate you and acknowledge you anyway. Go on, I compassionately dare you!
