What Relationships Do You Want to Nurture?
Posted by: | Comments
I believe one of the best ways to get to the core of what’s important to you and to travel the road towards simplicity is to ask the right questions. So I am starting a series called Moving Towards Simplicity. You can answer these questions in your journal, in the comments below or at the MySimplerLife Facebook page.
Question #10:
What Relationships Do You Want to Nurture?
Some people are more supportive or more important to you in your life. You can’t be close friends with the whole world. So what relationships do you want to nurture?
I want to nurture relationships with my daughter, husband, parents, sister, in-laws, cousin, L, M, S, G and a few others.
How about you? I want to nurture these relationships…

If you have just been skimming over the questions and not pausing to ask or answer, you will not get closer to clarity and the results you want. Please spend some time with the questions.
Question #9:
What Do You Like To Do for Fun or to Relax?
If you do nothing but work your life becomes one-dimensional. When was the last time you had fun? What do you like to do?
I have fun dancing, hiking, having conversations with friends and family, going to the beach, or creating in scrapbooks or visual journals. I relax when I’m immersed in music, tending to my spiritual life, reading, or journaling.
How about you? What I like to do for fun or relaxation…

Question #8:
How Do You Feel Energy-wise?
What kind of energy do you feel? What kind of energy do you bring to others? And this is a great question to ask when you are looking for which direction to take. How do you feel energy-wise as you go towards something?
When I speak somewhere people say I make them calmer and more relaxed. I have a calming energy much of the time. This doesn’t mean I won’t go towards things that make me fearful or excited (speaking actually does both) but I like to have a peace about my decisions.

Question #7:
What Do You Need to Be Your Best?
People deserve to have you when you are at your best. You help more people when you are at your best. I am not talking about perfection and being totally healthy. But, how good you can feel today. What do you need for that?
I need a daily quiet time, to exercise (dance, walk, lift weights, do yoga) 5-6 times a week & to eat at least 5 fruits and vegetables. I need to write/journal and look after my emotions. I need 8 hours of sleep. And I need to see people outside my family 2-3 times a week.
How about you? To be my best I need…

Question #4:
What Do You Want?
We’ve been told we can’t have what we want. Or we shouldn’t want things. We don’t like to admit our desires. But, then how can we go towards them?
I want peace. Space for deep thinking and reflection. I want to make my own choices. I want family time and a growing business. I want to take my daughter traveling. Wonder. Joy. Love. Health. Music. I want to cherish my moments. I want to dance. I want to expand my comfort zone and to feel more energetic. I want new kitchen curtains.

Question #2:
Who are you?
The good. The bad. See yourself in honesty. Describe what makes you, you. Then you can create a life around who you really are. Not who you wish you could be.
I am 4 ft 11. I am introverted and kind. Lazy and fearful. I am highly sensitive, optimistic and see potential. I am calm and laugh easily. I am intuitive and sometimes see more than what is really there. I am spiritual. Encouraging. I love to learn, write, read and be outdoors.
