March Energy
Each month, I like to be clear about where I’m directing my energy. It’s less about being aspirational and more about accountability, an anchor when things get chaotic. I’ve found that setting mindsets is more helpful than setting goals, at least for me. So if you’re looking for a bit of guidance, read these. Take what fits. Leave what doesn’t.
March energy:
Committing to the life you keep saying you want. When I’m trying to make a decision, any decision, I ask myself whether it brings me closer to or further from the life I say I want. It makes the purgatory of indecision more bearable and my actions far more focused.
Trusting patterns, not potential. The only potential I’m willing to bet on these days is my own. With everything else, I let patterns guide me. Patterns are one of the clearest ways to understand people and life. They reveal where you excel, what you struggle with, or who is capable of meeting you where you are at, to name a few.
Investing energy where it’s reciprocated. I love a generous spirit. But long term, we need to give in spaces that also give back if we want to sustain ourselves. Pouring into what and who pours into you allows you to grow and nourish yourself while still showing up for others.
Walking away from what costs you peace. A difficult task. But I’ve come to realize that peace is one of the most important things to protect. Your nervous system. Your health. Your mindset. Arguably, very little is worth sacrificing those.
Choosing clarity over comfort. I’ve become increasingly interested in the truth. It sounds simple, but I wasn’t always ready to face reality and often prioritized comfort instead. Now, I’d rather face my life as it is than enjoy a version of it that isn’t real.
Naming what you want, even if you don’t know how to get there. Many successful people I’ve spoken with began articulating their vision long before they had a clear path to achieve it. Call it manifestation, delusion, or confidence. Regardless, there is power in naming it.
Being gentle without being passive. We can be kind and still set boundaries. We can ask for what we need and go after what we want. Gentleness does not mean allowing our lives to be dictated by the needs of others.
