Shocking anxiety and cortisol flooding this morning from 5.45am. What’s the easiest way to settle myself? I used ‘the easiest way’ yesterday and it definitely helped me reduce some extra wheel spinning, but I still have a massive amount to do today. I feel overwhelmed by deadlines.
Do the things. Be ahead of the game. Make life easy for yourself by having things prepped early. Avoid last minute rushes – they make you ill. Prep wayyyyyyy in advance.
But I’m a reflector – I like to use all the available time to mull things over before I commit and finalise the things.
Make an imperfect draft ridiculously way in advance. Mull it over and then tweak and finalise way in advance.
Remember your colleague David?: “I’m a prepper.” Be like David.
The phrase: “I’m fully prepared” is your personal ticket to cortisol step-down. It’s your way of mastering the time-space reality and imprinting ‘I am in control’ upon it. Make an inner shout-out about being prepared!
We know. You secretly associate ‘swots’ (and Girl Guides) with ‘being prepared’. A reading error on your part. It’s ok. Those ‘swots’ are basking in the comfort of their wellbeing. They have an inner peace and tranquillity you have deemed yourself unworthy of. You are worthy of inner peace and tranquillity. And what is more, only when you work from a place of inner peace and tranquillity can you really be a channel for peace and love. If you want to serve and radiate love, you need first to serve yourself (grant yourself the gift of feeling prepared and on top of things) and radiate calming love to yourself. If not, you are going about the world sending out mixed signals.
Say: ‘I am prepared’ and feel it’s warmth. If you want you can take actual photos of your preparedness, to reinforce for your subconscious mind that preparedness is something you achieve the whole, darn time – and you’re really good at it.
Remember: a super early Draft 1, with later revision and amends to creat your Final version, is a really good use of your reflector traits.
Awesome. That feels better already. I know that if I keep saying “I am prepared” my inner self will let me know anything outstanding for doing to get to be 100% prepared. Let’s try it today.
PS. I might cancel my evening plans today to get fully prepared for my London trip tomorrow, because preparedness => inner peace => inner coherence.
I am prepared
