Horrible Sleep last night and a bit tougher than normal to wake up. I had a lot planned to work on this morning, but the internet is down again. We’ve recently installed Starlink which has been brilliant. There is a faulty cable in the ceiling though apparently, so this is the second time I’ve logged in to no response. I’ll address it in the morning when everyone wakes up. This is Day 4 of 75 Hard and typically my most challenging when beginning a new lifestyle change. My weight usually goes up again on Day 4 which is disconcerting, and so it has again today. I’ve deducted poor sleep equals some fluid retention.
My Commitment to Self
I Commit to BE-ing present, Connecting with the Divine Within, and Nurturing my Physical and Emotional Self.
The Four Commitments
Be True to Your Word
Don’t take anything personally
Don’t Make Assumptions
Always do your Best
Career
I had a wonderful meeting with Mr Effortless yesterday and it seems we both benefitted from stepping away from the business for a few days. We had a lot to catch up on and reflections to share. It seems we have a fresh outlook on what we are achieving together.
Emotional
I’ve not awoken in the best of moods this morning. I’m feeling tense and frustrated and not in my gooey delicious Soul zone. Life is a Soul-a-Coaster, after all! Once I finish here, I’ll spend some quiet time connecting with the Divine Within and aligning with my Soul and hit the rest button.
Environmental
I was raining and very cold yesterday, so I didnt go for a wonder down to the creek to find a happy place. Perhaps today will be better weather
Family
My family is being very supportive of my health journey and even ree to go for my walk yesterday when I’d lost track of time. Violet hasn’t said so, in so many words, but I think she’ll feel proud to have her Mum back to normal. She did mention she was FB stalking me and said I was looking ‘hot’(her words) when I was in Bali a few years ago. Noted and something to strive for.
I also heard from my darling, danish ‘adopted’ daughter, Isabella. Isabella spent time with us about 5 years ago while she was travelling Australia and we adopted eachother. Even though there is a large age gap, she became a Big Sister to Violet and they are just gorgeous together. We have since travelled with her to Fiji and Bali and just love her dearly. Isabella had some wonderful news about her beautiful new boyfriend Kristian with the soft caring eyes and her graduation from High School, which is the term Denmark uses for University, I think?
Financial
Large marketing payment deposited this morning for when the business launches.
Fun
Nothing comes to mind today … could be my funky mood
Impact
Mission Impact Myself still in process. Still filling my cup.
Intellectual
Nothing to report
Physical
Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming …
Have the Day 4/75 Blues, so am more determined than ever to honour my exercise commitments today. I think I’d better start my iron tablets again, because feeling more tired than normal. Dreaming of returning to my Bali home to stay motivated.
Next Oncologist appointment tomorrow. And although I’m trying not to worry, it will be wonderful to lay the concerns to rest.
Social
It gave me much joy to receive a photo of a Coconut with a jar of Vegemite at the Genius Cafe, Sanur yesterday ! Mr Effortless and my friend Kerrie met up for the first time. I love connecting friends ! I can’t wait to hear how the meeting went.
Spiritual
My non-negotiable daily spiritual practice is feeding my Soul. I definitely am feeling a deepening as I intentionally align with my Truth
Time
I lost track of time a little yesterday. I seem to be feeling more physically tired from the exercise and needed a Nanna Nap yesterday to recharge … but I slept for hours. Not the best practise for wanting to achieve more in a day.
