362: my sphere of influence

last night, i set my alarm for 5am. when it went off this morning, i discovered that i have come down with the same sickness my husband has. it's not fun doing yoga when i can't breathe through my nose. i'm (literally) sick of this winter!

instead, i went back to bed.

i received a lovely email from a close friend yesterday who suggested focusing on the things i can control in my life as a way of dealing with the millions of things i cannot control. this evening, for my mediation, my intention will be to focus on my sphere of influence. i'll remind myself that i can be powerful and calm with the things within my realm.

i found this article on mind body green this afternoon with 10 empowering quotes for anyone who wants to be happy. i don't necessarily cleave to all 10, but some certainly serve as reminders for a way to move forward and grow.

the first one rings true for me today: you can't leave where you are until you decide where you would rather be.
