Tripple “E” Challenge: Make it Lasting

Technically, I did the exercise wrong yesterday…I couldn’t find the paper on which I wrote the instructions down. Funnily enough, I made this daily word thing far more complicated than it is. I found it so here’s what I’m doing; it’s called the Triple “E” Challenge.

I had the first part right, to assign a word to the letter of the day (the letters come from the theme word for the year). However, the Triple “E” part is affirming that I will express, experience and enjoy (the process) of whatever the word for the day is.

Today’s word: Lasting

So today I shall make things that should be, lasting. I will experience those things which are lasting and let go of that which is fleeting. I will enjoy the process.

To be honest, I’m not sure what to make of this, but part of my quest this year is for clarity, so I’ll figure it out. For now, I’m clear that somethings are meant to be lasting and others, not so much.

Tripple “E” Challenge: Clarity takes Consistency

ConsistencyYesterday I talked about some spirit work I’d be doing this year. Just to refresh your memory, my theme for ’09 is clarity and each day I will be selecting a word to coincide with a letter from this word, affirm it’s meaning for my day and be open to its properties.

Sorry if it all sounds so abstract and metaphysical…If you’re confused as to what I am talking about, just pay attention, you’ll figure it out after the first couple days.

The word for today is, perhaps serendipitously, consistency. Quite apropos considering that consistency is quite possibly one of by biggest short-comings. I tend to get super enthusiastic and then fizzle out. However, if I am to achieve the goals which I have laid out here.

Consistency (noun):

1. a degree of density, firmness, viscosity, etc

2. steadfast adherence to the same principles, course, form, etc.

3. agreement, harmony, or compatibility, esp. correspondence or uniformity among the parts of a complex thing.

4. the condition of cohering or holding together and retaining form; solidity or firmness.

It seems fairly obvious what spirit is telling me. If I am to attain any real clarity – be it in vision or even in daily activities – I must impose structure on myself and adhere to some sort of program.

I guess it’s a good thing I decided to start this 365 blogging project, ey?
