making tough decisions
Today I’m going to do something I’ve never done before…hit you with two Daily Notes. This first one is for yesterday–with a two hour school delay, two amazing life planning meetings, helping my wife, Ang, move everything out of her storefront and into our house, and driving to Roman’s basketball game I didn’t get a chance to sit down and write a Note.
As I’ve watched Ang the last couple of weeks get ready for her last day with Roman & Leo (the boutique she started 12 years ago), I couldn’t help but notice the peace she’s had with everything–last day of the store being open, cleaning out the store, and seeing the storefront completely empty.
I have no doubt there is sadness within her, but since the decision to end the chapter of her life as the owner of Roman & Leo was her decision and motivated by her heart, not finances, it has allowed her to have more of a sense of closure than sadness.
By making the tough decision for her Self instead of having it made for her it became something to celebrate and enjoy, not mourn.
There will come a time in your Authentic Life where your heart will tell you it’s time to make a tough decision–listen to your heart and take control and ownership of the decision. Because if you don’t, there’s a good chance someone/something else will make it for you, which will only make it a harder decision to accept
When you are directing and creating your life, even tough decisions can feel “right” and not be negative or traumatic events.
See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,
JC
