Waking Up Thinking
There was a thought, came in the morning.
Happened just before she stopped snoring.
Profound,
No sound.
It went away without a warning.
There you are in the sweetest of sleeps. You somehow know you will be waking up soon because you sense a connection to your subconscious mind and conscious mind. A project you are working, an engaging conversation, a great idea: all these thoughts are flowing through your mind.
Now you really are waking up. You are going over those great thoughts believing you will remember them as the day goes on. Yeah, that is what I tell myself. But the truth is I have in my mind written some amazing limericks, repeated them in my head and told myself I will write it out later in the day when I have the time.
Sure Paula. That is awesome. You know what happens, repeatedly? I forget what I didn’t write down. One would think I may have learned my lesson yet but I am still working on it. I even have said just turn your phone on and speak it. It’s not that hard.
This is all comes around again to the ability to give yourself a command and follow through. I can be so diligent about certain things, like never forgetting to recharge my phone, which is highly important for my business, but still struggle with doing something I know will propel me to another level of success. The warning here for me is not so much the great limerick I wrote in my head, it is the warning to stop listening to the lie I will remember it. And the deeper lie … because I cannot remember is somehow a character flaw.
if I let those sabotaging voices continue they would talk me right out of ever writing again.
Maybe my limericks are only great to me. It’s not the point. Feeling good about commanding myself to be in charge, stay in charge and finish my goal will do far for me than the whole world reading my writings. Of course I still want the whole world to, but I will just keeping working on that.
Warning….listen to those morning thoughts and write them down. Our subconscious mind has lots to say.
