Message from Walt Disney
WELCOME TO THIS MAGIC MONDAY MOMENT
Kicking off your week with some thoughts around a favorite Disney quote (because in my world - Disney is life!).
original message date: 11/22/21
Happy Monday!
I wrote this during the week of the U.S. Thanksgiving. Although every day is a good day to give thanks – this time of year always lends itself to a little extra reflection for me.
This quote from Walt Disney is one that deserves some of that extra reflection time:
I wholeheartedly believe that what you put out into the world you get more of in return. This is one of the many reasons that being purposeful and intentional about our thoughts and our energy makes such a big difference.
Just as Walt said - this is also true for gratitude. There is so much to be grateful for, but the practice of expressing that gratitude isn’t always top of mind. It is sometimes easier for our brains to focus on what isn’t going the way we’d like. When we allow our brains to do that – we are likely to see more of just that - all of the things that aren't 'going right'.
Why put ourselves through that? I’m not saying that we should gloss over or ignore the tough stuff. Life is 50/50 – so we have to acknowledge and process it all. But we have the choice to shift our intentional thoughts to gratitude on the regular.
Walt was right – in doing that, we will not only notice more to be grateful for – we will attract more as well.
Here are a few things I’m grateful for right now:
The opportunities to live into my passions and strengths.
The people in the world who continue the work for justice, equity and equality.
Stories.
The many people I’m am surrounded by who support and inspire me (so, so, so many!!!).
Coffee.
Brad, Lilly, Joe, Jasmine and Denver.
The clients who I have the privilege of working with and who I continually learn from.
And YOU – for inviting me into your inbox every Monday morning.
I am grateful.
Every day this week – make a list of what you are most grateful for. Take notice of how you begin to attract even more to be grateful for.
Wishing you a wonderful week. You've got this!
