Enthusiasm

I was determined to be enthuiastic no matter what happened. I was presented with my opportunity right away. We were out skiing and one of the women we were skiing with was super excited to do a lot of runs. I tend to be more of a social skiier with lots of time to chat between runs. However, I found myself racing from run to run. You know what? It was a lot of fun. I did the best skiing I had done in years. And we had good chats on the lifts too.

Beauty

Beauty was the focus for the day. I decided this while I was walking from the subway to meet a friend for a ride. I happened to notice the sunlight was streaming down in shafts of light. It reminded me of angels and I instantly thought of beauty. So, I decided to focus on beauty for the day.

Within minutes, I arrived at the doors to shopping centre and was greeted with "Hello, gorgeous!" right on the door to the mall. It was so cool that I had to take a photo of it. All I could think was "what you focus on expands".

Change of Plans

I've been fooling around with this new project for 2011 and have decided to continue writing on this blogspace instead of creating a new space. I have retitled this blog to Projects365 but I want to keep the Sunrises365 project archived where people can find it. The 365 day Project for 2011 will be called Choices365 and will be about choosing my state for the day and then writing about the resulting circumstances on the following day. I'm out to show that your circumstances really do arise out of your responses and that anything is possible if you start with the belief that it is. Stay tuned for tomorrow' post.

Enthusiasm

I decided this morning that I would put enthusiasm into my day. I vowed to be enthusiastic in all of my endeavours today. I was tested from the get-go. My daughter and my husband were sick this morning. However, I was in a good state of mind to tend to their needs. I approached my work differently today as well. I had to do a lot of logistics today and being enthusiastic made a big difference. I'm getting into the groove of this project and starting to notice that when I set the pace for the day then I feel more empowered regardless of what comes my way.

Determination

I spent 15 minutes today meditating on the Emperor archetype. It is said that his archetype represents the self-consciousness of man; the ruler of mental activity in human personality. I felt detached during this meditation; almost aloof. I think I need to spend more time with this one so that I feel a connection to this energy. I let go of my negative emotions at 4:30 this morning during a brief waking period involving one of my kids. I couldn't go back to sleep so I used the time to free myself of the negative emotions of anger, sadness, fear, hurt and guilt. Then, I fell back to sleep. When I woke up I chose the emotion of determination to set the course for my day. The result of my choice was a very productive day with a great deal of focus. I like this project already.

The Final Post

Attention Followers:

I have started a NEW blog for 2011. It's called Choices365 and you can find it at www.choices365.blogspot.com. I hope you'll join me at the new blog. Thanks for following this one :)

Welcome to a New Blog

Hi everyone

For those of you who have been following my Sunrises365 Blog feed and have enjoyed reading (and seeing pictures) about the sunrise, I would like to introduce my new project.

It is called Choices365.

A new year of writing for me. This time, writing about making positive choices. You can visit the Blog URL at www.choices365.blogger.com or you can just read it here on my Facebook fan page at www.Facebook.com/GinaMollicone.

CHOICES 365
Your emotions don't arise out of your circumstances. Rather, your circumstances arise out of your emotions. Therefore, I have elected to do a new project for 2011. Daily, I will clean the slate and let go of my negative emotions using Time Line Therapy™. Then, I will meditate on the archetypes and choose an empowering emotion for the day. I plan to write about the results. Join me and see what happens.

p.s. I will probably still share some cool pictures as well
