In a recent seminar of the same title, when I asked particpants what prompted them to be attracted to this topic, here is what they shared..
- They are in dip
- Wanting to be happier – more possibility
- The word rejuvenate
- No more excuses!
- Job change with some fear
- Wanting to better understand passion
- Lost – feeling “should be happy” but something missing
- Wanting different, better options for their life
Do any of these resonate for you?
In the seminar we talked about the difference between highs, contentment and dips. We all go through cycles in our lives – from the dips in mood, energy and focus to feeling satisfied with what we have achieved, what we have and where we are t0 feeling excited, energized and driven. All of these cycles are necessary.
- The dips allow us time to reflect, renew and recharge – perhaps deciding where we want to go next.
- The feeling of contentment allows us to appreciate what we have, who we are and what matters most.
- The feeling of a high allows us to take action and forge ahead toward a new goal.
Too often, I believe we are chasing the high feeling like we are missing something “out there”. What we wind up missing is the opportunity to take time to reflect, to be more present and to be excited about the whole journey.
