Gina - other ideas on defining wants

As I was running on the boardwalk yesterday - I was thinking about my relationships and I asked myself if they were what I wanted them to be.

 

Another idea for defining what I want is to examine all of my important relationships and imagine them just exactly as I want them to be.  I started with my relationship with my son.  I journaled the perfect relationship with my son.  What it would feel like, how every meeting would be, how we would look forward to our time together and why, how we would feel at the end of our visits.  I imagined the looks on our faces as we discussed new ideas, as we challenged each other, as we dreamed together.  It was really cool.  Thought I'd pass it along.  Love, G

Gina - how to define what we want

This is the recap of the ideas we kicked around yesterday as to how to continue to define what we want:

 

Stay in touch with each other in mini meetings with our small groups

 

Spend time looking through magazines for pictures and words and phrases that inspire you.  I found it helpful to share those things with Barb and Troy - to further anchor in exactly what I wanted.  For example, playing golf for me represents quiet focus and the peace of being outdoors - so that's really what I want - the golf if just a vehicle to get there.  Then putting together a vision board and placing it somewhere we will see it regularly.

 

Visit stores for inspiration.  We also suggest visiting a store you like - for me it would be a gardening store.  And then visiting a store I typically wouldn't go into - like Home Depot for me.  This gets me out of my comfort zone and opens me up to new possibility.  Go into the store with the purpose of coming out an hour later inspired by something.  We also thought it might be good to leave our wallets at home!  :-)

 

List or journal what you love - and be very specific - what you are already happy with - then think of things that would make those already wonderful things even better.

 

I'm looking forward to our next meeting - we should be nailing that down today, right?  Tks, G
