Spirituality….at home and in the workplace
How to become a more spiritual person, a more loving partner, a more supportive parent/grandparent, a more effective employee:
1 Know that there’s a supreme power much larger than your mortal self. This first step makes you humble and aware.
2 Look for opportunities to add more love in the world. Find ways to feel and emit love wherever you go with kindness and compassion. You will become more loving and lovable.
3 Start each day in spiritual reflection and gratefulness. Be present with the universe or whomever your divine is. Reflect on your grateful list through a nature walk, meditation or a good spiritual book. This will make you strong.
4 Be more accepting and less judgmental. Don’t let yourself fall into the trap of thinking you’re better than anyone else. Have a more accepting heart and surrender any tendency to judge another person.
5 As hard as it is, learn to forgive. Do not harbor undesirable emotions. You will become more kind when you forgive.
6 Recognize when you’ve made mistakes. Admit any wrongdoing and be willing to be corrected. You will become more responsible and approachable.
7 Find something good in others. When you feel like judging someone find something good about them. If you look for the good in others, they will bring it out subconsciously. You will begin to be more of a positive person.
8 Look back on your day and reflect. Ask yourself if you were negative or mean-spirited vs positive and kind. Did you withhold love to another person when it was just as easy to give it? Ask yourself, “How did I do today?” Self-correct and have a better tomorrow.
9 Bless this planet and everyone on it. Don’t just bless your life, pour those blessings on everyone. You will become a more beautiful person.
10 Utilize each situation and interaction to be the best, most powerful version of yourself. When possible, rise to every occasion and remain on the high road. You will become the epitome love in a world that can really use it.
