DEVELOPING INTERNAL STABILITY THROUGH EMOTIONAL COPING
When you are ready, move into the 2nd phase, deepen your attention consciously to shift your focus intentionally, further and more constructively into the Emotional Dimension. Establish a foundation of feeling good, first thing in the morning. Employ coping skills moment to moment to bounce back into your good feeling place every chance you get throughout the day. Close your nights with intentionality, a clear and present commitment to feeling good when you go to bed.
Development often assumes a physical work that leads to constructive progress forward. It is constructive progress to find and remain in stillness. Distraction is Development when the mind needs rest from mental workouts or the heart wants to play in the game of life...maybe all can be play with the right mix of perspectives. Distraction, like sweetness, can sour and the attention will want to shift back to Development. Enjoy the pleasure of your Distractions. Enjoy the satisfaction of your Development.
