What fills you up??

• Tweet
• Email

I’ve talked about this before but I find i keep coming back to the “bigger” principles over and over again because we all forget them so quickly.

This week I have had about 5 people in Australia speak to me about my blogs. And I have had a surprisingly high number of emails about them as well from people as far flung as England, South Africa and New Zealand.

The content of the conversations and emails has been scarily similar. Basically people have said:

“Don’t you dare stop doing your blogs, they are often the only positive thing I receive in a whole day”.

Well firstly let me assure you that short of illness or death I have no plans to stop blogging and writing OK?.

But the proliferation of these comments leads me to ask you the above question again:
“What fills you up?”

We all need input that boosts our endorphin levels, these are the chemicals that make us feel good. Whether it is a spiritual discipline or music or gazing at water, we need to know what it is that fills us up and make sure we enjoy it regularly.

My wife and I are both wired for water so we sit by the sea and pray or just watch the world go by. This simple act empowers and inspires me and literally makes my day.

You will have things that do it for you, we all do. If you can’t think what they are then think back as far as your memory works for and look for the events or situations that made you feel good. It might be baking, riding a horse, painting a picture or discovering that the dogs weren’t the boys and the cats the girls.

Give yourself some time and your triggers will surface. Realise that they are critical to have in your life, don’t ignore or abandon them.
