Preparation
During the month of April, I would suggest contemplating and incorporating the actions of preparation into your daily experience. April is a time when farmers are preparing the fields for planting, gardens are being tilled, early vegetables are already in the ground preparing to bloom. Each of us can use the spring time quality to do our inner work of preparation.
Last month I focussed on waiting; if you reflected on that theme you may have discovered what your goals are for the coming months or year. If this is your first reading of my monthly focus you should take some time to decide what you do want personally and professionally this year. Set your long range goals, plan backward from that goal, and see what you need to do now as a preparation for the manifesting of your goal to take place.
Till the soil of your body, emotions, and mind. Plant good seeds, seeds of will, purpose, love, and determination. Fertilize the soil of your body and mind with good thoughts and actions. Take care of your self with good food, good friends, and good communication that challenges your assumptions and supports your plan. Pull out the weeds of negative thinking, unsupportive friends, and weak willed ideas.
Spring is a perfect time to prepare for what you want; and you cannot prepare this summer or fall, if you want to harvest fruit this summer or fall! Each of us in our personal or professional life is in a spring season; a new beginning time. Prepare for success, for a good harvest. Get your hands dirty, you might be a little sore because of the hard work preparation takes, but it is a "good" soreness!
Good luck; and let me know what you do, and experience in relationship with the theme of preparation during the month of April.
greetings, Daniel
