This week I wanted to move the focus away from my physical space and give an example of a supportive environment in my relationship space. As much as I believe people forget to pay attention to the effect their different physical spaces have on their success, I think people spend even less time thinking of how the people in their lives are helping or hindering how effectively they move forward.
Fionn (the “o” is silent)
My son is by far one of my most supportive environments even though, at times, he tends to completely exhaust me on a physical level, he does nothing but provide me with energy to work on all of my projects and move towards my dreams. The birth of my son completely changed my perspective on all of my different spaces. My previous goals, ambitions, and dreams all took a 180 or at least 90 degree turn when Fionn came into my life.
How does my son act like a supportive environment?
- Whenever I forget why I am doing something, a few minutes with him reminds me of my purpose.
- Whenever I spend too much time on work, time with him reminds me of what is important.
- When I am having a bad day, stopping what I am doing and hanging out with my son is a sure-fire cure for the blues.
Fionn is a perfect example of how just spending time with the right people in your life can provide endless energy to keep you working towards your dreams.
Think of somebody in your own life who is a positive energy source. What could you do to spend more time with this person receiving that positive energy?
