This is a conversation about honesty.

Not the type of honesty that causes us to turn in the wallet we found in the bathroom, or tell the cashier that she gave us $20 too much in change. Nope, those are easy in comparison to this type of honesty: BEING HONEST WITH OURSELVES.

That takes INVESTIGATION. And COMMITMENT. And SUPPORT.

I truly believe that many of the reasons we fall short of our best intentions is not because we’re not disciplined enough, or motivated enough. It’s because we’ve been expecting to simply KNOW how to do what we want to do, when in reality, taking control of one’s life is an actual SKILL SET–one that takes training, and studying, and ultimately a capacity to actively engage in constant mindfulness.

You’re not failing; you simply didn’t learn a particular set of Life Skills.

 
This session with Author (grab your copy of The New FastGirls here), Mindful Living Coach, and Yoga Instructor Jasai Madden is a great start down the path of learning the skill of mindful living.
