Commitment
Commit to working on self-cultivation. Replace old habits with new habits. It means putting yourself first.
If you don’t want to do something everyday, pick something else you want to do everyday. Be committed to something. What about your self-integrity? Can you commit to yourself what you want to do. When you start to balance all of the Nine Palaces, you don’t want to over do or underdo any of them. Master Jeffrey Yuen said, “When you lack moderation, it taxes your Nine Palaces. Over consumption and over indulgences will tax and stress your Nine Palaces.” Find the path of greatest ease. You have created much more drama than there actually is. If you find the path of greatest ease, drop some breadcrumbs so you can find your way back. Put some time aside to meditate, start somewhere. In meditation, when you get a thought, don’t judge it. Ask yourself, “What is this thought, and where did it come from?” Thanks for listening to the podcast or reading this post! Jaye Leta #InspiredActionPodcast Join Our Inner Circle
