You hear this question, “Are you for real?”, posed in conversation when someone does something out of the ordinary. It could be an unbelievably exciting thing, or on the other hand, one that makes your blood pressure rise!
When it comes to being REAL, true to yourself and who you are called to be, the following acronym came to mind that could be a guideline to ask yourself when defining and designing your vision.
Are you for R.E.A.L.?
Resilient – This is one of my favorite words as it gives you a sense of being able to bounce back! We all are faced with challenges and circumstances that are sometimes out of our control, yet allowing the process of the ‘going through’ to refine you, puts a new perspective on the situation. It allows you to refocus your intention, and put more attention into refueling the fire within, to be a catalyst for good.
Excellent – You are amazing! Face it…there is no one quite like you! You are created with gifts and talents, unique to you. By focusing on your uniqueness and being the best version of you, that is where excellence begins. Excelling in one area can accomplish so much more than trying to be everything for everyone.
Authentic – Being true to who you really are and living from a place of consistency and congruency with your true self, speaks volumes! Your spirit soars, your soul awakens and everything about you shines when you are aligned with who you are destined to be.
Love – This may sound like a simple word to ask yourself, however it’s a foundation for truth. Are you coming from a place of love in your thoughts, words and actions? Everything you think, say and do is based on one of two emotions…fear or love. Emotions like judgment, negativity and envy are fear-based whereas kindness, joy and peace are rooted in love.
So as you count down the days to this last month of the year and decade, why not make a decision to ask yourself, are you for R.E.A.L?, and live from a place of Resilience, Excellence, Authenticity and Love.
With light & love,
