Start your day off with an inner smile

This arrived in my in-box today from one of my favourite sources of spiritual inspiration, Inner Space, based in Covent Garden, Uk. I believe their website is: http://www.innerspace.org.uk

This is brilliant advice for anyone in any field, but it can be particularly useful to entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, voice artists and self-employed people where life is often day-to-day. Sometimes filled with good news -gigs, new and repeat clients; or sometimes it goes the other way – a missed job, a cancelled job, etc.

The advice which I received in today’s email is good for keeping us balanced, happy and focused. Here it is!

Positive Nourishment

Just as you would nourish the body with a healthy breakfast, in the same way, start your day on the right foot by feeding the mind with positive material.

Prior to starting your work day, either on your morning commute, or as soon as you walk into the office – take a few moments to read or listen to uplifting, encouraging, and mind-stretching information, words, music or podcast.

The New Year has begun-Mother Nature says Good Morning!

The new year has begun, and I’ve decided to clarify and work with developing my Core Values and Goals, rather than develop a list of resolutions. These values determine how I live my life, relate to clients and friends, and generally move ahead in 2012.

On the voice over scene this includes more training, focused marketing, networking with colleagues – helping out where I can, I’ve already tweaked my studio space a bit, and re-doing the website with a new host.

On the personal side it includes getting out and about more, and continuing my studies with inspirational, positive materials, people and podcasts. As well as developing my Japanese, and budding Italian language skills more fully.

It also includes appreciating nature. Remember to take time to look around and see the beauty in life. Here are some piccies which I took this morning! Walking forward there was a beautiful red, orange and rose coloured sunrise. Whilst behind me, the moon was still out. It was so cool! Then a few minutes later, I noticed the moon was disappearing and on its way to bed. Nature is wonderful. Total gratitude to start my day off with such wonderful sights!
