Day Eight

Alright this post is showing up late in the day because my internet was down all day at work, but today was a great power hour. I mixed things up a little bit and went to another level in some areas, so here it is:

Gratitude - my gratitude journal is the area where I'm probably noticing the biggest difference. I'm looking forward to writing in this section every day and it has truly made me more grateful and thus much slower to frustration, anger, etc. I feel like a happier person when I remember what I'm grateful for and how much there is to be grateful for. Also, if you need or want something in your life like more time, money, love, appreciation, work, etc. then express gratitude for those things and more will be attracted to you.

Physical - I've moved up from simple stretching to squats, push-ups, sit-ups, and some aerobic activity to get my heart pumping a little more. Feeling better and looking forward to basketball tomorrow.

Soul Purpose - Alma 21-22, my scripture study is becoming strong and better, and I love learning from them. The area I need to improve on though is my prayers. I feel like they need to be more heartfelt and more meditative to not just talk and go through the motions of prayer, but have real conversations with my Father in Heaven and take the time to listen to him as well.

Financial - from my increase of knowledge in this area with my work I am able to help others, and today I spent some time preparing some letters for my sister to help her address some financial matters that she's needed help with.

Social - I spent some time composing a few notes of gratitude and encouragement through Facebook today, that felt good. It's always a wonderful experience to tell someone you appreciate them, especially when its a bit out of the blue.

Mental - I actually spent a lot of time in this area today, over an hour in fact. I was studying the concept of Cash flow vs Net worth. I finally got clear on why cash flow and how that principle works, the importance of velocity of money, that movement is more important than accumulation. Now, the part I'm still working on is how do I apply that principle with what I am doing. That's probably where my Mental track will go tomorrow, stay tuned.

ps thanks for the comment from "anonymous". I do feel more accountable already!
