Empowering Vision

Busy as a BEE

Lately it seems as though the entire universe has started conspiring to shower me with everything I have been dreaming about...be careful what you wish for!

When the whole universe comes knocking at your door, how do you make time?
My involvement planing and preparing for the Financial Permaculture course is only the beginning... I am a teacher and facilitator in the Ecovillage Design Course, Lead organizer of the upcoming advanced permaculutre course in earthworks and food foresty, as well as my role as bioregional organizer, Gaia University Associate, and NextGEN fellow...whew...deep dreath....not to mention helping to launch a 24 7 internet radio channel...
Sometimes i find myself gasping for air...
feeling totally overwhelmed, and wondering what the hell I am doing drowning an a sea of sustainability...
Can anyone say...NOT SUSTAINABLE???

Ah...but Then hope shows up in the form of self empowerment, accountability, integrity, and TIME MANAGEMENT. My dear friend, colleague and mentor, Marianne Weidlien has been helping me to learn how to juggle all my passions and dreams...One of the key learning for me recently is how to respectful put down a ball that threatens to cause my juggling act to come crumbling down to the ground.
Discernment is a key word here.
Discerning when take a rest from my juggling act, and take a break, take time to smell the flowers and take a walk...do yoga or just read a book....Discerning when to say no to an amazing and juicy project, and discerning when to tell someone I cannot follow through with something.

In addition to teaching discernment Marianne's reflective questioning process has enabled me to see deep down what my patterns are, and which of them serves me, and which of them don't. Equipped with that powerful knowledge I have been able to make the CHOICE to raise my emotional frequency and stay in a productive and joyful space even when I might have been stressed out before.

It is still a process, and sometimes I still get overloaded...but I can always smile joyful and remind myself that I am choosing to say yes to all of this, and I can also choose to say no. Now I am learning to map my commitments with the flow of time, be more efficient, effective, and make the time I need to cultivate my own inner peace and strength.

Empowering Vision, Marianne's program is totally transforming my ability to manifest my dream of joyful service and abundance. A deep bow and my most profound gratitude to her for all her hard work and service to myself and other world changers. As Marianne has We need to be empowering ourselves and each other to do our best! And the change starts inside.
