First, I won a Vision Workshop & Laser Coaching package while listening to a tele-seminar with Sonia Miller of Success for the Soul. She was starting another 90-day intensive coaching program in September, something I’ve wanted to do every time she’s offered it. This time I knew the Resistance I was feeling, all the reasons why I shouldn’t pay for it or commit to it with my busy schedule, was coming from a ‘scarcity mentality’ and really signaled that this was exactly what my soul was calling me to do. So I took the leap, signed up for it, and paid in full. Two days later I won a full-ride scholarship to the program and received a refund for the whole amount in my paypal account! When I was answering the questions to apply for the scholarship (which was by random drawing), I declared that if I won, I would put the money toward attending Marie Forleo’s Rich, Happy + Hot conference in New York in October. So you know where I’ll be that weekend!
I’m living in appreciation for things great and small this week: for scholarships and serendipitous web browsing; for vision workshop activities and journaling; for my big, lovable mastiff lying at my feet while I type the day away; for hot, sunny sweltering days and for downpours that drench us on the way to the car; for the last week of summer school for Liam and my last week of chauffering; for the opportunity to spend an hour in the car with him every day talking about music, coffee flavors, forms of government and what he should name his empire; and for relaxed, quality time with family and friends.
