Things I’m truly grateful for today:

  1. Disappointments because when I’m disappointed it means I just got what I didn’t want and I can now define what I DO want and go out and get that instead.
  2. The distinction between focus on what I want to have versus what I lack. If I feel good I’m focusing on what I desire. If I feel bad (apprehensive, angry, resentful, etc) I’m thinking about what I lack.
  3. Matt isn’t seriously ill. I was worried that he might have a strep throat or mono. He doesn’t have either.
  4. There are funny movies, TV shows, and books to read that make me laugh and cheer me up.
  5. Inky and Gus my two awesome kitties
  6. Being married to my husband, Michael Murdoch.
  7. The many sweet messages I received from friends and relatives who wished me a Happy Birthday. I really felt my heart warming reading the messages and feeling the energy that was in them.
  8. When I work in the attic the cats like to hang out with me.
  9. Today is starting beautiful and sunny.
  10. Looking forward to talking with Marci this afternoon about my website. I’m really excited about it going live!

Things I’m truly grateful for today:

  1. My health is something to always be grateful for.
  2. Got a good night’s sleep.
  3. It’s Monday and who knows what grand and glorious adventures may happen!
  4. The audio program, Your Wish is Your Command which has reminded me of how incredibly important it is to focus on what I want rather than on what I DON’T want.
  5. Starbuck’s French Roast coffee.
  6. Central heating.
  7. Being married to Michael.
  8. Michael and Matthew are both healthy (or at least no serious, chronic health issues).
  9. Having hot and cold running water.
  10. Client problems because quite frankly you have to have clients to have problems and there was a time when I would be grateful to have ANY clients.
  11. Clients can get angry with me and that can be a sign of success on my end. There was a time when I was afraid when a client got angry at me because they would complain to my boss and I’d get in trouble for people not being happy. But if I’m a coach who focuses on helping clients make significant shifts they’re going to get uncomfortable and sometimes they’ll be angry at me. It’s actually a luxury to have the freedom to make mistakes as well as to do or say things that make people angry and not worry about having a boss who will get fearful and tell me I’m doing it wrong.

Things I’m truly grateful for today:

  1. Inky is curled up in my lap looking very content. There’s something about a happy cat that makes me feel happy and content.
  2. My new mastermind begins today. I’m lucky to have a mastermind group to work with. The last group made a huge difference in moving my business forward.
  3. My size 6 boot-cut jeans still fit well.
  4. The Quick Ignition consult I did with Keli was wonderful. I got some really helpful feedback from her about what was working for her.
  5. The continued message to apply what I learn as quickly as possible. This seems to be one of my developmental edges because I tend to want to keep things in my head.
  6. Completed the layout for my one-pager that covers my coaching packages. I still have work to do but it’s a really good beginning!
  7. Today during the mastermind I’m going to focus on the question “what can I learn?” Because there’s always a lot of stuff I can learn.
  8. The final image for my website sidebars is complete.

Things I’m truly grateful for today:

  1. I’m feeling peaceful and focused right now.
  2. Found a pair of comfortable pants for Spring. I’ve been craving looser, more flowing clothes lately which doesn’t seem to be in style but that’s what my body has been asking for.
  3. The soreness and stiffness I was feeling in my neck is gone although the fact it’s showing up again means I need a new, firmer pillow.
  4. Had a really affirming consultation yesterday with Ashi about my work space. It feels good to know that working in a space that nourishes me spiritually. Sometimes I feel guilty for being so picky about my surroundings.
  5. I also enjoyed the confirmation of aquiring just a few exquisite things is a way to experience material products. I really love that idea that rather than fill our homes with stuff we can wait until we find just the right thing to fit into a particular space. Again this is a way to occupy a place rather than to just fill it up. What would it be like to not have a lot of stuff? What would it be like to fill up every unoccupied foot? What would it be like to leave some parts of a room unoccupied until the right furniture or fabric came along to be there? I like the consciousness and deliberateness involved in living this way.
  6. Got the Internet working again.
  7. Working in the attic space. There’s a lot more light in here!
  8. I am very grateful for my physical healthy and my energy and concentration.
  9. I’m grateful to have the time this morning to take a moment to say thank you.
  10. The insights I had about the rightness of fit when it comes to hiring a personal trainer. I had a thought that was very helpful to me.
  11. Looking at Inky’s silhouette against the bright window he’s looking down at the trees and probably watching the birds. There’s something very calming about watching him. Cats are so still when they’re observing their prey until of course they pounce. But there’s something very Zen-like about how cats behave.

Things I’m truly grateful for today:

  1. Not feeling the dread I usually feel on Monday mornings. As I’m learning more about alignment of goals I have a greater sense of control over the projects I take on and how I feel about them. I also feel less responsible for outcomes and this lowers the pressure on me to “make stuff succeed.”
  2. Wearing a comfortable pair of pants. For some reason I’m wanting to wear softer more flowing things lately after wearing so many pairs of skinny jeans.
  3. Got a really good night’s sleep last night.
  4. Minimal junk food yesterday.
  5. My physical health because if I don’t feel well physically nothing else is really possible.
  6. I can read books on my iPhone.
  7. I have a little reading light that uses a single LED. It gives me enough light to read a book but Michael can still sleep and not be bothered by the light
  8. Michael is healthy.
  9. Matt is healthy.
  10. My cats Inky and Gus are healthy.
  11. Matt is doing well in school on his own. He cares about his grades and works at them.

Things I’m truly grateful for today:

  1. I spilled some coffee and it ended up on my apron instead of my nice white Tshirt!
  2. I can hear squirrels running on the roof when I work in the attic.
  3. It’s a cloudy day and the attic will stay cool. When it gets warm up here it’s challenging to cool.
  4. I’m learning new tricks for manifesting what I consciously desire by bringing my subconscious and body into alignment.
  5. I can spend the day doing things that bring me joy. 150 years ago I would right now be baking bread so we would have bread to eat for the next few days. Then I would be making soap. Then I would be using the soap to wash people’s clothes and so on.
  6. We have Netflix so even if we spent 2 hours watching a so-so movie, it’s still amazing that we can even stay at home and choose among hundreds of movies to watch as soon as we want to.
  7. I have clean water to drink. I turn a handle and like magic, clean water comes out of the tap. The water may not be the purest or ideal but at least there isn’t anything in it that will make me dangerously ill or kill me in a week. Once upon a time a drink of water could give you cholera which would kill you in a few days.
  8. Inky and Gus are six years old and in good health and content and well cared for. They’re not feral in which case they might be dead by now of starvation or sickness or injury.
  9. Matt passed his permit test. I didn’t really doubt he would but he seemed to have some concerns. So Matt can start learning how to drive and in not too long he’ll be driving.
  10. Being married to my husband, Michael Murdoch.
  11. Living in the front range of Colorado. There’s still something so magical about looking west from the great plains and see the mountains. It’s such perfect proof of the power of the natural world we live in.

Things I’m grateful for today:

  1. I’m alive!
  2. I’m learning to live less in my head and more fully in my entire body.
  3. My physical well-being because without feeling wonderful physically I can’t accomplish much else.
  4. The anxiety and sense of conflict I’ve been in. I used to feel that when I felt anxious, sad, or conflicted it was weakeness on my end. That it showed I was wrong. Because “winners” if you would, always feel 100% confident and sure of themselves. What I’m learning is that it is simply information that I’m not fully in alignment with my body and subconscious and I’m not quite making a decision or acting from what is really true for me.
  5. I’m learning how to move more quickly which includes changing my relationships with people. Not ending relationships necessarily, but shifting roles.
  6. Loving my new Doxie scanner. Works so simply and well. Love the Fujitsu but it was a lot more tempermental.
  7. I’ll have the entire weekend for my own projects. I would love to have all those folders in my office put away by the end of the day Sunday!
  8. The new outfit I put together using brown ankle pants and a block print cotton lawn blouse. Really pretty, springlike, and feminine.
  9. Inky and Gus.
  10. Michael
  11. Matthew.
  12. People in my life like Keli Conci who are powerful and having big hearts.
  13. My new website which I love because it’s so ME!!!
  14. Being married to my husband, Michael Murdoch.
  15. My son, Matt.
  16. Received the Anchor Hocking glass jars. They’re even nicer looking than they were in the photographs.
  17. Inky doesn’t seem to hate his hairball medicine as much as some of the other brands I’ve tried. I don’t have to stalk him to get some on his paw.
  18. I’m alive!
