My Mum reminded me it was 20 years since I ran with the OLYMPIC TORCH ... I was a very different person back then physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually.
In fact most of you probably wouldn't even recognise this as me!
So this PROMPTED me to contemplate how much I had changed & transformed since the year 2000. {When everyone thought the planes ✈️ would fall out of the sky with Y2K! FUNNY ... 20 years on ... the planes are out of the sky!}
This turned out to be very powerful activity for me ... I did a little FROM - TO exercise ... here's what I discovered:
🧳 I had lots of emotional baggage which I physically carried & which heavily influenced my eating & drinking habits - NOW I am 20+ KGs lighter PHYSICALLY as well as brighter, happier & more open & loving
💓 Back then LOVE was very RULE BASED - NOW it truly is UNCONDITIONAL ... I AM the LOVE ... I CHOOSE to LOVE regardless of what I may receive in return cause it's an expression of me!
❌ My focus was dictated largely by my Inner Critic ... the incompletes, the not good enoughs, the flaws, the mistakes - NOW I see BEAUTY & POTENTIAL + I value IMPERFECT ACTION cause it gets me up, happening & leads to ADVENTURE
🤕 I lived in my head, revolving in detail & doubt, making circular decisions - NOW I live from my HEART with a strong sense of KNOWING. This is a POWERFUL NAVIGATIONAL tool which guides me through feelings of alignment or misalignment
🚫 My heart would close at the slightest triggering as a PROTECTIVE mechanism - NOW this puppy never closes ... I will not shut down or lose my own LOVE for anyone or anything
🤯 I over analysed & complicated things leading to overwhelm - NOW I'm a free flowing spirit who chooses SIMPLICITY & EASE
🔜 I always wanted to fix & force things - NOW I allow them to UNFOLD organically ... the gift is ... there is always SURPRISE & DELIGHT.
Don't get me wrong, the essences of JEN were always there ... the big heart, curious, deep thinking, heartfelt, rebellious, disruptive, wild, direct, transparent, cheeky & playful.
But soooo much of the TRUE AUTHENTIC me was buried & bogged down.
The last 20 years has been a massive transformation & I'm very excited to start the next big phase of my life ... HUMNAV ... The Human Navigation Project! It's coming real soon ... woohoo & I can't wait to share it all with ya'll
So take this as a PROMPT & ponder ...
Who were you in 2000?
