I swear by my, ‘Things to Do List.’
Meticulously, every morning, I pen down what I need to do today, this week, this month and keep ticking off all that has been completed.
Then, someone introduced me to the ‘To be list.’
She just said, “We make To-Do lists, and yet has anyone ever created a To-Be list? We are human beings – not human doings, so why do we forget that Being is as important as Doing?”
What happens if you focus on Being before Doing?
Right now, you are probably walking around thinking a variety of things such as:
“I want to make lots of money.”
“I want to have lots of loving, loyal friends.”
“I want to have great relationships with my family & friends.”
“I want to be loved and liked.”
Now, to get a lot of money, friends and love, you need to act in a way that attracts more money, friends and love.
What qualities do you need to improve to attract more successful life results in your life?
Are you being disciplined, organized, warm, loving, patient, self-loving, intuitive, calm, confident, courageous, open-minded, generous and empathic?
Your identity will always determine your destiny.
Who you think you are and who you actually are will always affect what you choose to do—and how people and the world at large respond to you.
For this reason, it is very important to write a To-Be list every day—even before you write your to-do list.
After all, who you think you are will always affect not only what takes the top spots on your To-do list, but even how well you are able to check off your to-dos.
We don’t always get to choose what’s on our to-do list, but every day can be defined by our to-BE list.
On this one, precious day, in this wonderful festive week, what will you put on your To-BE list?
Ask yourself, what kind of person do you want to Be this week?
For me, in this festive season, I want to be Grateful, Kind, Happy, Generous, Be the first to wish & greet and Be nice to everyone.
Decide your To- Be list for this festive season & stay blessed forever.
