“Send Coach John a message”

I found a post that got me thinking about how much I need to find this. I’m talking about finding a “quiet mind.” It comes from Curious Minds (@CuriousMindsHub) where this post was shared: “A quiet mind … A quiet mind learns better. A quiet mind observes better. A quiet mind acts better.” Yep… I need a quiet mind more often. I need MY mind to be quiet more often. I think back to my past, when I was a little kid at times. I knew my mind was quieter at that time because of the things going around me that my mind was trying to deal with and think about. Today - I feel that it’s multiplied many times more than that. It gets me thinking (and planning) about finding ways to slow my mind down - especially at night while I’m trying to sleep. I want to keep looking for ways to simplify my life and mind for that matter. Be more in the moment when I can remember to do that. I want to make my habits and choices fit into this a bit more.

“Send Coach John a message”

Looking at a few things this morning and this one got my attention. The reason of course, is that I needed to be reminded of it. It’s from Words of Wise | Mindset Coach (@Wordofwise_) and it’s a quote from Carl Jung who said “I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.” It reminds me to not focus on the challenging things that I have gone through or currently am going through. Instead, I need to focus on the things that I’ve been able to do that are good and helpful to others; along with to keep on doing to keep serving and making a difference for others. It’s challenging to remember this when tough times are all around us, but there are plenty of examples of others going through it too. We must keep learning lessons every day, along with taking a few moments here and there to have the perspective in our lives to keep getting better. I want to be in the moment, right now to do something I know is good for me to do. Choices that help me to become who I choose to be and not stay weighed down by what I’ve been through before. Deep stuff here that has helped me tremendously and I hope it helps you too. Thanks for listening.

I came across a post the other day that stuck with me. This came from MLFootball (@MLFootball) and it was a thought that came from Los Angeles Rams head football coach Sean McVay. He said in order to grow as a person you need to struggle in life. “Show me anybody that's great in anything they do, I'll show you somebody that's persevered, demonstrated that mental toughness to overcome some obstacles and adversity” It’s something to just sit back and take to heart. Nobody that has done anything worthwhile - big or small, has been without troubles, setbacks, doubts, obstacles, and of course failures. This got me thinking that I simply need to keep trying, every single day. There are billions of examples of this throughout history. Now of course I don’t know about all of them. I do know about a few and that also tells me that those that I don’t know about, aren’t any less valuable. They did happen for sure. The things I’m going through, I can get through if I “simply” make the decision to keep going. You can do the same. Thanks for listening.
