Beginner’s Mind

I am experiencing a shift that I am going to try to name. My inner critic loves when I say I’m going to do something and then don’t follow through. Until now, I have fed the critic by over booking my life with activities and commitments that there isn’t enough time in the day to maintain.
The shift is recognition of this pattern and making a different choice. I am stepping into each day with the freedom to do whatever feels right for me. I trust that I will be considerate of others and makes choices with the wide lens of compassion. I surrender all habits and patterns that I created in the past. Each morning I awake to the blank canvas of a new day, free to work, play, create with fresh eyes and beginner’s mind. I am grateful for this life I’ve been given.
