What would happen if you woke up tomorrow and decided that all day you would pretend that you are the best version of yourself.. that improved, healthier, happier, more patient, more grateful version of yourself? Why wait until after the education, promotion, the right season or age, or environment? What if you just tried on that amazing version of yourself for a day?
That was a question that I posed to a client recently. As soon as I said it I realized that I have never tried this myself. Not like that... Oh, I have done this as it related to manifesting one thing or another. I do that all of the time... in piecemeal. But I have never tasked myself to BE my best self for a day - all day.
Because maybe that would just be too hard. Or maybe not worth it. It might be embarrassing if I fail... How ridiculous! It should be comfortable and easy because the best version of myself IS comfortable and easy. Obviously, it was time that I tasked myself with this assignment. I rose to the challenge and today I am here to tell you about how that went.
It was soooooo FUN! I honestly had the time of my life. I found that with each segment (a change from one activity to another) if I asked myself "what would I do or say on my best day doing this?" I usually knew the answer - what my best would be... and it was not very hard. It became easier as the day went on as well because with every BEST experience I felt more confident that I can be my best.
Of all the fun I had, being the best wife, the best mother, the best grandmother, the best sister, the best friend, the best counselor and coach I could be was the most phenomenal feeling ever! It wasn't noon by the time I stopped wondering if I could maintain this level of focus and attention - it just came and came and came as natural as breathing.
I challenge my readers to take this challenge and be your best for a day! I will help you if you need a mentor or guide. All you have to do is ask.
