i was asked this question yesterday and i thought it was an appropriate question to ask all of you. when was the last time you stepped back, looked at where you are, and patted yourself on your back for . . . your education, your skill set, your fabulous hair, your yoga practice, your do-gooding efforts, your healthy eating, your health, your relationships, your ability to set boundaries, your self-care rituals, etc, etc?
i’m sad to say that my answer was not too impressive as i’m sooo much more of a “doer” than a “be’er.” (thank god for my yoga – it’s all about balance!) my response usually notes all there is to do and all the great opportunities (and needs) out there. i’m not good at looking back, always looking forward. sure i get sentimental but i enjoy making things happen. that’s where i get my juice.
yet, this time the question stuck (especially my lame response) and i thought it was a good question to share as i’m wondering how you would answer it. so here goes:
do you ever take a moment to reflect on what you have accomplished?
