Tip #5
Values- To Do/ To Be
Each of you separately makes two lists and review them together.
• One list is- To Do
• One list is- To Be
Separate the two values:
• To Do is the actual things we usually think of- call the insurance agent, file our taxes, pick up the kids from soccer, plan a vacation.
• To Be is along the lines of- peaceful, well-rested, healthy, loved, compassionate.
Bonus:
• Take it one step further and create a To-Do List For The Universe and let it go. I first heard this at an Abraham Hicks event and thought it was genius!

Taking a Step Back and Breaking it Down

Amid the cleaning frenzy I was guided to do, I discovered a journal from 2009, when Ryan and I were newly married.

Can you guess what I journaled about back then? The same shit. Yep, the same mindset behavior, just packaged a bit differently. The tangible goals, like him catching a big wahoo, having a fishing captain’s license, and moving somewhere where it never snowed had been achieved, but the mindset goals were still a work in progress. Of course, the work never ends because even if you have perfected your mindset, you still have to maintain. Same as working out or losing weight; you have to maintain and continue to do the reps. I am proud to say that there has been improvement. But, there is still work to be done.

The example of finding my old journal is one of the main reasons I wanted to write this book. Change takes work. You have to put in the work to see change and progress. Writing down your thoughts and ideas in a nice pretty journal and then putting it on your shelf doesn’t help you or your spouse. I am all for the pretty journals, I have a stack, but a legal pad would also work just fine.

December 28, 2020 Have you heard these sayings before? “Laughter is the best medicine.” “Worry less, laugh more.” When is the last time you laughed? REALLY belly laughed? Laughed so hard your face hurts? (This happens to me.) Or you had tears in your eyes? Laughter...
