Reminder

 

I've been thinking a lot lately what to tell myself.

To answer one question.

What is really important for me?

Right now, that is.

It's such a patience process to know yourself, isn't it?

Because we're constantly changing.

Or at least we seem to be, as we adjust to lifes challenges.

I am a work in progress, for sure.

But here's what I've figured.

What I really want to be after.

Who I want to be becoming.

An encourager like Barnabas was.

A great friend, like my friend Dan Baumann is.

Bold to be myself, listen to myself and to challenge myself.

Fully filled with deep internal  p e a c e, no matter what goes on around me.

Playful lover of life, fully present in every moment, for every person around me.

Fully aware of who I am, adopted as a daughter by my heavenly Father.

Worthy to be loved, because he demonstrates that in my life each day.

These things I've made into a short code.

I'm reminding myself three times daily of these goals.

Every time my phone beeps its reminder alarm I see my code. 

B&B: Bold, Peace, Playful. Adopted, Worthy. 

What happens if I've forgotten to shift the reminder for the next day?

I notice myself shrinking with my awareness of who I am and who I am becoming.

Setting these reminders for the next day again feels just so good, deep down.

It's like I'm confessing to myself that I am actually worthy to be loved.

By just simply setting next days reminder.

How simple and yet, what an impact.

I wonder, after ten years of doing this, how do I view myself.

Have you tried setting a reminder for yourself of the person you're intentionally becoming?

What would be your code?

What challenged me to do something like this?

Reading a book called High Performance Habbits, by Brendon Burchard.

Have you heard of it?
