Getting better...

Through it all, I'm working to get and be better

Sending you Good Vibes and Energy for an Amazing week.

May you strive to be present and get better,
May you appreciate the now,
May you have peace and ease!

Every day I’m working to get better. I over-invest my time in my growth. Sometimes it’s paralyzing and I get stuck or caught up in the details of the perfection of how I want to grow, instead of having grace with myself for my efforts made.

I want to be a better Human.
I want to be a better son.
I want to be a better partner.
I want to be a better father
I want to be a better teacher.
I want to be a better businessperson.
I want to be better and the best at whatever I do.

But does this obsession with getting better take away from my present moment awareness? Yes and No.

When I notice these feelings and what’s happening, I get brought right back to the present, that’s mindfulness. That’s me getting better. That’s my practice. The perpetual practice of getting better with my awareness. If I get 1% better as one of my football coaches tells me, I think I can be more present. I can appreciate what’s happening in the now and maybe those moments will be enlightenment. I don’t know.
