If there is one that all of us deal with it's change. How it is dealt with says a lot about what we believe to be true not only for ourselves but for life as well. Think of it this way. When do we change anything in our life? Doesnât it come more often after we have encountered pain? I know for me that is true.
There are many things we can consider recharging. So far, this month, weâve covered topics ranging from health, nutrition, sleep, etc. We also looked at how journaling is a powerful way to recharge ourselves with its ability to help us think clearly. But what if youâre doing all of that and you still feel like a part of you needs a boost. Well, it could have to do with faith.
Thereâs a long-held urban myth that suggests the true measure of success is attained when we achieve work-life balance. Yet ask 10 people what work-life balance means and you will get 10 different answers. And that makes sense because for each individual it is a personal choice on how their work and personal life coexist. I know for me, in my 20âs it was all about work. Working in restaurants and hotels I worked so much that it was easier to book a room at the hotel instead of going home to sleep just so I could get an earlier start on the day. As I got older work, while still important, had less of a pull on me as I preferred to take some of those extra work hours and devote them to my family and passion projects.
Have you ever said to someone, maybe yourself that youâre feeling drained? I know I have. This feeling happens when we are emotionally exhausted or worn out and if left unaddressed can lead to burnout. And it starts when we feel our lives are unmanageable and we have lost our power. Hey brother, thatâs never a great place to be.
Most of us have heard of horse and dog whisperers, right? These are the people who seemly without saying a word can âtalkâ and gain a connection with these animals. These whisperers can tame the animals so they can be trained for a specific purpose. Well, what if I were to tell you that we are all âwhisperersâ to ourselves? Wait⊠what?
As a young man, I was fascinated with the kitchen. I loved to watch my mom make bread. She had the larges mixing tub I have ever seen. Each month, she would go through the routine of bread making. There had to have been at least 24 loaves and just as many cinnamon buns. I loved it. Coming home from school and smelling the freshly baked bread to this day takes me right back to those years.
Epictetus the slave. Marcus Aurelius the emperor. Seneca the power broker and playwright. These three radically different men led radically different lives. But they seemed to have one habit in common: Journaling. And they were not the only ones to practice the habit of writing. Foucault observed this in his era as well. All the great minds practised it.
