Monday Motivation

Something fun to start your week

My idea for this week involves a snow globe.

Look around right now. Everything you see and hear… everything in your current environment… Imagine all of it is enclosed in a giant snow globe.

Your past is not in this snow globe, and neither is your future.

Instead, your snow globe only contains the here and now.

OK, look up from your device and picture yourself in that giant snow globe.

Now, knowing that you’re in the snow globe, try to let go of any worries you’re having about the past or the future. Just focus on what you can control within your snow globe. Do you need to get a task done? Take care of a family member or pet? Do something to take care of yourself?

Life becomes simpler when you stop thinking about EVERYTHING and instead focus on living in your snow globe.

This “snow globe” mental image could help during difficult times, too. Instead of getting lost and overwhelmed…

Bring yourself back inside your snow globe.

Then deal with what you can control inside your snow globe—not with all the things that might or might not happen.

If time is a line, you can imagine yourself progressing along that line inside your snow globe. All you ever really have to deal with is the present moment.

That present moment (your snow globe) just keeps moving along with you.

And remind yourself that, no matter what happens, you can handle this present moment.

So try it out — and see if this mental image of a snow globe helps you.

Have a great week ahead!
