NOTES FROM THE AWARENESS: 1482

Guidance

Sometimes we may wonder how to assess whether we’re doing the right thing. Or, we may act impulsively under the grip of strong emotions.

When either beforehand (preferably) or afterward we question ourselves, we may find it helpful to apply a simple bit of guidance. Is it helpful? Is it kind? Is it loving? Is it true?

When we use these benchmarks to evaluate our words, thoughts, and deeds, we’ll likely find we have little to regret. While we may not always follow this guidance—after all we are human—doing so much of the time will leave us feeling comfortable with ourselves.

Today’s message reminds me to be self-aware in my thoughts, words, and actions. When I do so, I’m in integrity with my beliefs.

Please reflect and share. How do you evaluate yourself?
