Stand in your Truth

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Do you know what your non-negotiables in life are? If you do, do you hold strong to them or do you compromise them away?
Take a little time and ask yourself "What things in my life, what values of mine are deal breakers, are non-negotiable?" Then ask yourself "If I feel this strongly about something do I follow through and hold fast to my beliefs or do I make excuses and say "Well next time I'll say something" or "This really isn't a good time to take a stand"?
It takes courage and strength to stand up for your personal beliefs and values. It is not always comfortable however it is well worth the effort.

When you give away your power, when you compromise your values, when you negotiate on one of your non-negotiables, your body, mind and spirit lets you know right away. Your mind tells you "Why didn't you say something/do something?" The inner critic kicks in and starts the negative self talk. You feel irritable and moody.
Your body reacts with a headache, stomach ache, clenching of your jaw line. A tightness in your chest, a feeling of anger and or resentment, and anxiety. Your breathing becomes shallow, not full and complete.
Your spirit calls to you. You feel out of balance, not connected or grounded. Your energy and motivation stall out.
When you stand strong in your integrity and your beliefs your mind tells you "Good for you! Way to Go!" Your body feels calm, strong, a little exhilarated for standing in your truth. You feel self assured and confident.
Your spirit soars. You feel lifted to a higher place. You are motivated and have the energy to go onto to the next set of tasks for the day.

Which results would you like? Today before you consider negotiating anything important to you, check in with your body, mind and spirit and let it guide you.

Affirm:
Today I keep my Integrity intact by walking my talk and matching up my thoughts, my words and my actions.

Walk your Talk Today

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
Your actions demonstrate the truth of your words.
So become aware and pay attention to your own words and see if your actions match up with them. If not, ask yourself why. Did you say yes when you meant no? Were you people pleasing? Were you afraid of confrontation and said whatever it took to avoid it? Did you have good inentions but allow fear to stop you?

There's a good reason for the saying "Actions speak louder than words." People HEAR your words and SEE your actions. Do you follow through on your talk or do you tend to have lots of talk and little action? Discover what areas of your life may need to be aligned and matched up.

Sometimes just becoming aware that our words and our actions are not matched up motivate a self change. Don't beat yourself up with your discovery simply use it to make an adjustment that will enhance your personal integrity.

Affirm:
     Today I practice self awareness so that I align my walk with my talk.
