– Goals, energy and passion
Goal setting, but also passion. I have studied goal setting and some models and techniques on energy, including Reiki and setting up what gives and takes energy. If you are a lot in the mind, you need to ground your energy and will be benefited by doing tasks in the home or outside. If you are restless, calming techniques, and to go back to being in the now with for example mindfulness or meditation will help. So, why goals? To be able to feel that we are accomplishing something? To visualize and see to that we stay on the right track in accordance with what we want. Things need to feel meaningful. We go through trials in life, and take away learning from it, and also learn more about ourselves. Knowing what strengthens us and gives us joy is a key. Being able to see openings is not always the easiest, but believing, seeing, even if it is only you or one person believing in you, your vision is still there. Then we have the thing with talent too. Being skillful is energizing, knowing what you are good at. What do you do better than others? If you don’t know yet, don’t worry, it can be a journey to figure too. Another aspect, even if rare, is the spiritual realm and what family we have there, and what they are wanting for you, if you are drawn to and on a spiritual path. This is at least true for the shamanic path. Much knowledge is lost here in today’s modern society.
Today I want to give you some questions to think about. If you would like to figure out more on where you are heading.
– Where do you love to be?
– What do you love to do?
– What did you enjoy doing as a kid?
– What brings you joy today? How to get more of that?
– What takes your energy today? How to get less of this?
If you are low on energy, there may be several reasons for example diet, lifestyle, nutrition, spiritual aspects and physical aspects. Also, are you where you want to be today? Are you having a pattern repeat itself (This may be due to trauma, etcetera)? Sometimes you may figure out these things on your own, sometimes it’s good to have a friend, or coach. It will bring perspectives, and they may see things you are not aware of.
I thought I was going to clarify some methodology on goals today, but I guess that will be for another day… I partly write as it flows in me, and hope it gives you insights and meaning.
