Awaken Your Day - Dec 15 - Do It Your Way

"When you do the common things in life in an uncommon way, you will command the attention of the world."
- George Washington Carver

Many of you would be familiar to some extent with Frank Sinatra's famous, "I Did it My Way".

Once again I see a statement that we all take on surface level, and we absorb the meaning for the moment that we hear it, and then we carry on doing things the way the masses do. There is such an addiction to keeping close to what is familiar among people.

I have thought at times, that this could actually be the most serious of all addictions the human race will face. To be so totally dependant on doing things by the book. Or in a manner that is comfortable. And this is for anything. From our daily routine, to your dependancy on a J.O.B. to how we raise children to how we teach ourselves to how we brush our teeth to how we express our love to how we dress to how we plan a wedding .... and so on, and so on, and so on.

Tradition, or habit, or fear...call it what you will. We often do not consider doing things a bit different that "usual". We do not consider it unless we make ourselves aware of how we feel about something, and then make the bold statement, "I am going to be different."

I am tempted to say, spice it up.

How does anyone think we evolve thru the ages, if not for someone having the idea, and then the courage to just do it a bit more like the way they want?

I could list ideas and examples all day. But that is not the point.

You, can make a game of it. Ask yourself today as you do things...is this the way I would do it? If I had control, what would I adjust or do slightly different?

Do this at your job, so you might find a way or a suggestion for improvement.
Do this in your morning routine, to fix things that maybe you were not aware of that drain your energy because you are just following the template.
Do this with your relationship ... and ask yourself, why can't I be like that scene in the movie that everyone says is too good to be true? If it makes my partner that excited and happy, is it not a great thing to try?

Add an element of energy to something you do today, and tap into your creative side even for the simplest things in this life.

It is after all.... Opportunity Monday.
How will you design your hostile takeover of the routine actions that smother your creativity?

Good morning...Do it your way.
