Initiative is something that comes to me naturally. I am a creative person and often think outside of the box.

Today, initiative has taken on a new twist. As I look at it from a responsibility angle, I see that if initiative is not tempered with discernment then being an "over achiever" may be the result.

Today I worked for 1 hour to support an initiative that is dear to my heart. I am one of the administrators in a googlegroup for Virtues Project Facilitators and I am trying to embed a google calendar so that we can all post our "initiatives".

After an hour, I realized that this approach would require much too much time and energy. I took the initiative to give up that particular aspect.

After making this decision, I felt free.

Note to self: making decisions which protect my own personal boundaries is quite freeing and opens my initiative up to other things.

A Bit About Me

My photo
(Re:Visioned on Nov 23, 2020) I AM in TRUSTed to the idea that the whisperings of my Soul have always been calling me to these times. That this present day and the here & now is what I was guided to. To TRUST the action: to 'call a circle' of others who are committed to helping make the world a better place NO MATTER WHAT SHAPE IT'S IN... it's go time! (Read my Birthday 2020 blog post to catch up) TODAY I BEGIN CALLING A CIRCLE and here is my intention - to gather people who: appreciate & benefit from healing stories as they navigate their own; can hear my self-care story & daily journey to help themselves stay on track with their own stuff; and can be witnessed in their story while encourage space for others to support the whole circle. I AM excited to see who's showing up and where it will take us. See my Blog Page to join the circle.
