The Best Year of Your Life! The Best Minute of Your Life!

This one liner is so popular at the beginning of each year. It is usually followed by popular triggers:nLose Weight!nIncrease your Wealth!!nAchieve your Dreams!nOvercome Obstacles!nFind your Perfect Mate!nGet Healthy!n nArticles and seminars used this one liner so much; I wondered if it would be possible for me to plan out the best year of my life at the beginning of the year? Contemplating past planning sessions, I remember a lot of time and money spent with nothing coming to fruition. Goals like being more eco friendly, being a better communicator, eating better, whatever it was, my long term planning seems to not work out.nnSuccessful plans for me are usually practical in nature, meeting parents for a play day at the park, spending 2 hours in a specific day to pay bills and check my budget. Practical plans can go astray too. I was planning on going to the play center last Saturday at 2 PM, but my son fell asleep, so I changed my plans. It was “in my flow” for the day. I actually like being “in my flow”. It makes digesting life easier. I don’t take it personally if a friend is a “no show” for a play date. I know the plan for that day did not “fit in her flow”.nnI know there is a force, a flow that moves me to accommodate my:nnFailure – when I get to learn new lessons, grow spiritually, expandnLove – when I learn to love myself more, get to love new peoplenCreativity – when I get to experience new things beyond what I had imaginednnWhen I surrender to that force I feel my own co-creation. It is minute by minute. It is not something I can “put my mind to”. Surrendering allows me to be what I need to be, with that comes natural improvement.nInstead of “Making It the Best Year Ever”, I think I will just make it the best minute with whatever is in my flow and surrender. Get my head out of the game and stop trying to plan out a strategy unless it is for a practical purpose. Embrace my true co-creator status, practice faith that Source moves through me and with me.nnI think the saying is true, “God Laughs at Plans”.n nOrganically Yours,nRenay Matthewsnwww.OrganeeFoodCoach.com
