I quote Mother Teresa a lot. Mostly because she speaks to my heart in such a simple and loving way.
Today we are going to tap and reflect on her words, “If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.”

I Don’t Know Exactly What I Want So Am Afraid I Will Waste Effort By Doing The Wrong Thing
It always feels good to have a plan. When we know where we are heading it is easier to take action with confidence.
When we aren’t sure exactly of our direction it is harder to feel sure of our best course of action. In this situation it’s often easier not take action because we are concerned about doing the wrong thing and wasting time and effort.
Today we are going to tap for those times when we are hesitant about taking action because of our concern that it’s not the right one and will be a waste of our resources.

Others Think My Goals Are Trivial And Foolish
Our goals very personal. They are things that we have named that are useful and meaningful to us. Just because we think a goal is worth working for doesn’t mean that the people in our life will think the same things are important or valuable.
There will even be times when people dismiss and diminish our goals as silly and foolish. When this happens we question ourselves and our motivation.
Today we are going to tap for when others think our goals are a waste of time.

Internal Peace Is A Process (That Is Well Worth The Effort)
In my experience, internal peace is not something that happens at the flip of a switch. As Lyndon B. Johnson said, “Peace is a journey of a thousand miles and it must be taken one step at a time.”
Just because it is a long journey it doesn’t mean that we don’t see the fruits of that work until we reach the end of the journey.
With each step we take we have more peace in our life.
Today we are are going to tap for being gentle with ourselves as we work through this process.

I Have Too Much To Tap For And Dealing With All Of It Will Be Too Painful
As we become aware of the all the work we need to do to clear out the emotional blocks and limiting beliefs that are holding us back it can feel really daunting. So daunting that we don’t want to risk diving in to start on the work because it just seems too painful.
Today we are going to tap for feeling overwhelmed by the number of issues we feel we need to clear.

Slow Progress Is Killing My Motivation To Take Action?
It can be hard when we are looking to make big changes in our life because they take time. Often we are making progress, but the fruits of that progress are not yet evident. Even though we know we are taking the steps we need to move forward it can still feel like we are spinning our wheels.
Today we are going to tap for how not making progress fast enough can be discouraging and dampen our motivation.

Needing To Be At Peace With Ourselves
It is really easy to look at the world and notice only the things that bring a sense of disharmony in our lives. I like William Hazlitt’s thought, “Those who are at war with others are not at peace with themselves.”
The place we need to start our work is to work on finding peace within ourselves.
Today we are going to tap for finding that internal sense of peace.

Sometimes I Care Too Much
It is good to have goals that we care about, but sometimes we care so much that reaching them consumes us, filling our thoughts night and day. When this happens our goals take on much more significance than is appropriate and we set ourselves up for a major letdown when we don’t reach them.
Today we are going to tap for when we let our desire to reach our goals become too big.

I Just Don’t Care Any More
When we work for a long time towards a goal but don’t make the progress we would like it can be easy to lose motivation. When this happens we can get so frustrated that it feels like we no longer care if we reach our goal or not. The work we are doing seems so fruitless that we just don’t want to try anything else.
Today we are going to tap for when we lose our motivation and just don’t care if we get there or not.

Your Life As A Gift
I love Hans Urs von Balthasar (and not just because his name is fun to say). My favorite quote of his is: “What you are is God’s gift to you, what you become is your gift to God.”
Today we are going to tap for being open to becoming what we can be and how our life can be a gift.
