Those tiny shifts

Looking back at the times when you didn't take action, what did you learn about yourself? What results do you wish had occured but didn't?

With those questions in mind, think about those chances that were available for action:

-Your sitting at your desk trying to decide whether to email the information you promised or, do it later, then you typed another email.
-Your at the doorway, hesitating, should I take that item to a friend in need? Then, you walk out the door without it.
-Someone says something to you that astounds you, but, rather than speak up, you remain silent.

Those missed moments when a small action, helping another, speaking out, would have been a shift that  changed outcomes, perhaps set you apart, or sparked awareness. We all do it and think, "I wish I did that."
It's those tiny shifts that can cause small differences and make changes for the better.

This week, pay attention and be aware of those times when you can "shift" into something greater or allow for something more for yourself or another. See how it feels.
