Judge ‘me’

Specifically, how do I treat people, how interested am I in them, and what changes can I make to improve the social dynamics of my life to increase alignment with my favorite ‘social feeling’?

• If I zoom in, how are my relationships on an hour-to-hour or minute-to-minute basis?
• How about macro, how are my relationships overall?
• Spouse
• Friends
• Family
• Children
• Work
• Social life outside of work

• Do I spend enough time loving myself? (and hopefully beyond)
• How do I express my love? Do I show it in multiple ways, or only through intimacy? How can this be more aligned with my actual picture of love?
• Do I love on other people — at random throughout the day — by thinking of them and calling them into my consciousness? Now that I know this has a physiological response on their cells to make them feel more happy and loved, how can I ‘not’ want to do this?

Am I being responsible for my future? Living the moment enough? Is there a better balance that might feel more aligned, and if so, what changes might I make to get there? (Then, I’ll feel into each idea.)

Am I eating food based upon how healthy it is for my body, or am I still being tempted by foods that make me feel lousy?

In other words, am I spending all of my time sore, or am I in a pattern of moving too little and getting too busy? If either of these are true, that’s not in alignment with the way I’d like to treat my body. I like to move, a lot, every single day.

Am I being judgmental on myself, in a negative way? Am I being judgmental in my thought process about others? If I had to rate my ‘bliss level’ on a scale of 0 to 10, what would be my score throughout each day?

• Since I know my mind is in charge of this number — and I personally would love to live at a 10 — I can imagine the feeling of a 10, and then use it as a bar to make progress in this direction through every choice I make.

When push comes to shove, do I treat my body with love throughout each and every day? Am I nurturing and thanking it for all it does for me, or am I taking it for granted and having unrealistic expectations on its ability to perform without sleep, in a prolonged state of hurry, or during integration from a new life lesson that requires personal space and time?

In my case, I have a goal of at least 85% of my day in a state of consciousness that feels ‘higher’, so to speak, in that I can feel a greater level of connection to my surroundings, people around me, my purpose in life, and experiences that take place. In contrast, historically I’ve spent a heck of a lot of time distracted by my mind, hardly noticing things as I walked or drove by them, and constantly solving problems (business challenges, relationship challenges, etc.) while doing something else.
