Willingness.I love the concept of being willing. It works for me to be willing to forgive and love, to be open and receptive to forgiving and loving someone in my life when I'm not completely ready to say Yes I can. Yes I'm willing is a great first step.
In today's meditation, the affirmation is:
A willingness to try new things brings freshness to my life.The challenge within the meditation is
Today I purposely choose to do something new.
I find myself scoffing when I run into a challenge like that. It's unlikely that I will have the opportunity to do something new that day because my day is likely to go along in its usual way. (For me having a day go along in its usual way is a good thing.) Sometimes driving home a different way is given as an example. Meaningless to me. See I'm still scoffing.
As I often do, I took the meditation challenge literally. Then I gave the idea some more thought and realized that's not the intention of the meditation. I can take the challenge like this: If I run into an opportunity tomorrow or the next day to do something new, I will choose to be willing to step into that opportunity.
I get it. When I get the chance I will step into something new - no fear, no doubt, just openness and excitement at the opportunity. Just willingness to try something new and enjoy the freshness it brings to my life.
