"Essentially, modern life takes the jumpy, distractible 'monkey mind' we all started with and feeds it steroids." - Rick Hanson and Richard Mendius, Buddha Brain
"Who you are, what you think, feel, and do , what you love - is the sum of what you focus on." Winifred Gallagher, Rapt
Call it what you will - spirit, animus, prana, chi, life-force, motivation. It is the spark that lights your fire. It is the whisper beckoning you forth. It is the life bubbling up inside of you. It is the inspiration you feel. It is the turning, the growing, the striving to become who you are. It is universal potential energy, embodied in the here and now, in You.
And it can be easily squandered, diluted, hushed, starved, ignored. Distraction. Fear. Not knowing who we truly are, the mighty force we are born as. Life lived by email.
Prana follows focus. It drives you forward in whatever direction or directions that you choose.
How do you work? How do you communicate to colleagues? How do you treat those around you day in and day out?
Turn down the noise. Focus on what matters. Act with intention. Be not afraid to be who you are - at home, at work, at life.
