Practicing awareness is not commonly associated with the necessary set of skills for a safe and productive workplace. But a conscious decision to expand your awareness can increase your effectiveness in every area of your life, including your job.

Awareness is a state of mind where you are conscious of and alert to certain facts, circumstances or areas of knowledge that affect you or others in some way. Awareness implies a keen perception and consciousness of your environment and the various elements operating within that environment.

Great article..I have been surrounded by negativity for the past decade or so and am only now trying to focus more on putting a positive spin on things. Maybe it’s just because of my own personal experiences, but I find it incredibly difficult to remain positive…it’s so easy to revert back to negative thoughts! I find that, most often, my greatest enemy is myself..It takes a great level of self awareness and discipline to combat your own thoughts…

Hi Evelyn,
I really enjoyed reading your post and the way you shared the more personal aspect of your journey. Your writing is peaceful, yet direct. It’s true that personal growth is so much more than “positive positive positive”. Working through the layers, the way you are, adds so much depth to your understanding of the human condition through understanding your Self. Wishing you much clarity on your journey!

@Flora, thank you so much for your warm support. I must say that I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the positive reactions to this post. For a while, I thought of not publishing it, believing that that it would not work out in my favor because it would mean appearing vulnerable. I really appreciate your taking the time to provide such a nice feedback!

Thanks once again,
Evelyn

@Miss Bridget, most certainly, a relaxed physical environment, which also includes yoga and some exercises, will be very helpful in developing a peaceful mind. You are right to point out that we should not limit to being positive only once a year during Christmas. Everyday provides us with an opportunity to practise!

@Barbara Swafford, right on! We need to lead by example. It’s important that we walk the talk.

Evelyn,

Thanks so much for the courage and willingness to share your notes and experiences at such a deep level. Motivating by leading is the most powerful way to help others.

Thanks also for modeling for the rest of us who are mentors, writers and speakers in the self-help-positive-thinking-attraction field. I applaud you.

Hi Evelyn,

Isn’t is amazing how just writing our thoughts becomes therapy for us? I love how that works.

Your statement, “I cannot be a better coach or mentor to others, without working on myself deeply”, holds a lot of truth. How can we teach, motivate, lead, guide, etc., if inside we’re dealing with past problems/issues?

Dear Evely

Everyone who reads this please do not forget to change your enviornment by going to the mountains soaking up the beauty that is presently there and free your mind of negatives thoughts by absorbing the beauty that is present then you will feel better when you return. Evelyn I forgot to ask if you could include some aerobics first then yoga to relax and make the body and mind aware and relaxed.

Eat a alkaline diet like fruit and vegetables which are free from acid and drink distilled water and eat according to your blood type. You can call Ollie or Rita at 1800-798-4372 and ask for the book everyone you might want to ask for a detox kit which will cleanse your body while you work on your mind and body. Thinking on things that are good clean and lovely and are of a good report are things one should think on. Strengthen your weakness and pretty soon you will have nothing negative to think about.

I tried thinking positive and evertime you encounter a negative immediately think of a positive thought to erase the negative thought. And you will see positive energy flowing to you. That is for everyone who reads this. If you can be positive at Christmas or whenever then do not do this once a year do this 365 days a year and you will see a difference. You will see a fight in the beginning but after a while the positive frame of mind will take over and things will not seem as a hesitation or a fear because you allowed the positive to take over oppose to the negative.

Sincerely

Miss. Bridget C. Biggins
P.S. Walk according to what your age is and then freshen up everyday especially if you cannot afford the gym and your body will appreciate you for it. Some people practice Tai Chie. If walking is not your speed then try Tai Chie. At any rate move that body like the song goes “Sitting on top of the bay watching time go away or pass away.” is not what you want to do so “move this you gotta move that you gotta shape your body for me.” Other wise you are going to be sedentary. So take my suggestions everyone and do this for the remaining 365 days and write me and tell me how it went.

This is for everyone okay?

Sincerely

Miss. Bridget C. Biggins

“Knowing yourself” is one of the most painful yet liberating activities you can do.

I’ve been there – lots of strength! It tempers your inner self like nothing else.
