Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; for it becomes your destiny. -- Upanishads

So, you are about to do something, and you complain about it. What the heck is that about? Why are you complaining about something you are choosing to do? How about stop complaining, and just love the activity! So you are about to take 3 hot classes in a row - shut your complaining trap and get excited about it.
Get INSPIRED. Inspiration literally means - "to be infused with spirit."
So, approach every activity with enthusiasm and joy.
Practice doing what you love, and loving what you do each day.
If you ever catch yourself complaining to someone about something you are about to do - STOP YOURSELF right there.
Give your soul the benefit of NOT COMPLAINING.
If anyone ever starts to complain to you about what they have to do - just smile within, and realize that they are not filled with INSPIRATION and enthusiasm for their choice. Realize that is not LOVE for what they do.
I was in Katherine's Flow class this week - and Eddison (head guy at WHY) was in the class. If you have never met Eddison - take the time to meet him. He is the one who made Westcoast Hot Yoga happen for you! His yoga picture is at reception in the Yaletown studio.
When he steps into a room, or when you have a conversation with him, he has an extreme amount of ENTHUSIASM. For life, for yoga, for everything. It is very inspiring. He does what he loves, and loves what he does. You can tell.
When Katherine was talking to him in the class - I noticed the wonderful enthusiasm and inspiration in their conversation.
Katherine is the same way. You can tell that she loves teaching, and it shows in her class. She is very inspiring as well - filled with ENTHUSIASM for life and health and everything else. She does what she loves and loves what she does. You can tell.
I'm sure you know people like that, right?
It just feels good being around their energy.
So - shine brighter, and start to practice every day - Doing what you love, and loving what you do.
Even if it's getting your morning coffee, taking yoga, kissing someone you love, chatting with a friend, or looking at the sky.
Do it, LOVE it - and take complaining about life OUT OF YOUR LIFE!
Shine brighter
Peace
Andrea
