Self Care – Do you care for yourself?

Do you take care of yourself?  I mean – do you really take care of yourself?  If you were to look at yourself as a hired manager of your life, would you want to fire yourself or give yourself a raise?  Do you feed yourself the right foods, giving yourself the perfect fuel?  Do you exercise to keep yourself healthy, which allows for you to live your life without limits?  Do you take risks with drugs or alcohol?  Do you allow yourself time to rest, when needed?  Do you nurture yourself during difficult times?  Do you respect yourself and those around you?

Have you been consciously living your life or are going with the flow of what is next on your list of things to do.  Graduate High School – check.  Graduate from college – check.  Get married – check.  Have 2 children – check.  Retire – check.  STOP at any time!

You are the manager of your life!  Pretend if you have to, that you have been hired, and that it’s your job to do what’s best for this person’s life that you are managing.  Think – What am I going to do today, to help make this person live their fullest life?

Wearing of the Green – Saint Patrick’s Day!

My earliest memories of St Patrick’s Day is littered with memories of boys and girls running around saying-“you better be wearing green, or you’re going to be pinched.”  I think this was one of my first introductions to flirting. They’re were more conversations, and interactions than usual, as the boys chased and the girls screamed.

Today, and years later, I am still running around.  This time, in my mind, about a man.  It has nothing to do with wether I am wearing green or not, but about a conversation I had with an old love. What do you do with a man who is all wrong for you, and all right for you at the same time? A relationship where your passion and ideals, fit so perfectly, that it’s beyond compare to any experience that you have had before. So perfect – that it’s like a real life fairy-tale, where in your perfect Goldilocks life, this is the feeling, an experience, that you want to have with you always.

It’s hard because the good is so good, that it makes it hard to turn away from or to understand.  The reality is that we don’t have to understand it or turn away from it.  We just need to accept and enjoy how it is at this moment, and keep focusing on what we want.  If it fits, as we are pursuing the life that we want, it will stick.  If not, it will fall away.  We can only control ourselves.  We need to keep out minds eye on the life that we want; reevaluating, adapting, and continuously moving along the way.

May your day be touched by a bit of Irish luck!

Having the perfect life in a perfect world…

The moment that we are in…

Today I started working out. Part of my perfect life is having a healthy body. I also, embarrassingly, would like to look a little better, and get rid of some of these soft spots that have developed.  I’m not really over weight for most of America.  I am, however, about 20 lbs overweight, if you are in New York, Miami, or LA.  My main goal is to maintain my health, and fortunately I have always been very blessed in this area of my life, but last week – my brother had a heart attack!  I think I am still in shock. He is too young. I never expected to get that call.  He is doing okay, and I’m putting it out there right now, that I am expecting a full recovery!

I feel like I am on the right path of working towards my perfect life, and everything that I want in it.  I have moments however when I start to revert back to my old way of thinking.  The phone call from my brother was a hard reminder that we are only guaranteed the moment that we are in.  So we should be doing something that we love, or we should be with someone that we love, or a function serving a purpose that will help us or someone we love. Why waste any moments on anything other than joy, love, happiness, and hope. Connect only with good people and good thoughts.

Lets not waste any time – it is too precious!  What is your next step toward creating your perfect life?
