Sunday Three Pillars


Sunday Three Pillars
Three things to think about this week:  The Three Pillars of Inspiration.  These three things can help pull you out of a rut, shift your focus, and generally help you feel more inspired.
The first pillar is this:  turn off your phone and /or any other electronic devices.  I know, I know.  But you can do it.  Just turn things off for a short, set period – a half hour.  Unplug yourself.  Then use that half hour to begin pillar number two.
The second pillar:  Focus.  This can be giving attention to anything you normally ignore, or don’t usually notice.  Your focus can be inward (daydream or brainstorm!), or outward (appreciate the beauty around you).
The third pillar:  As you unplug, be positive and non-judgmental.  Don’t berate yourself for ignoring your phone for a half hour, or worry about what else you should (see this previous Sunday blog:  http://balletwebb.blogspot.com/2014/05/sunday-should.html ) be doing.  Let the daydreaming inspire you and encourage new thoughts and ideas.  Give in to your childlike self, if only for a brief time.  You might be surprised at the results.
Just a half hour a day this week.  Try it.
