In reflecting on the question this week, what is getting in the way
of experiencing more peace in my life, here is what I noticed: sometimes
I have difficulty letting go of the past, particularly memories,
emotions or ways of making meaning that are negative. When I recall such
thoughts, I don’t end up feeling good about myself, a person or a
situation. This gets in the way of constructive thinking and my being in
the present moment.
I also noticed that my habits serve and don’t serve me in
experiencing more peace. For example, some of my habits around
organization and bookkeeping could be more consistent and disciplined to
reduce anxiety. Other mental habits around the way I think about myself
could be more consistently positive. Occasionally my perfectionistic
tendencies creep back in, which can result in negative self-talk or
delayed action. However, I do tend to notice this earlier in my process
and nudge myself to be more curious and comfortable with playing and
experimenting instead of getting everything “just right,” more of the
time instead.
What did you notice this week?
