Welcome back to Tús Maith o’clock.
This week I want to share some insights about managing pressure.
In Irish, Tús Maith means ‘a good start’. We have a lovely Irish saying: ‘Tús maith leath na hoibre’ (pronounce toos mah lah nu hib-ra) This is translated as a good start is half the job / task.
I want to keep this REAL.
I started my day with a chaotic to-do list and some serious overwhelm. What I realised I was doing was putting needless and unfair pressure on myself. (More in the video above.)
My invitation this week is to give yourself some time (and maybe permission!) to reflect on:
Where can I take the pressure off?
If you’d like to join me in my daily Tús Maith practice….
1) Get a nice notebook (A5 is a good size)
2) Every morning (or when you remember during the day) write:
I NOW have an AMAZING (or whatever word feels right for you) day today.
(Be sure to add you FULL STOP…it means you really mean it!)
3) At some stage during the day fill the rest of the page with things you are grateful for, starting each sentence:
I am so grateful for / that…
4) Repeat 2 & 3 each day for the next week…and just watch what happens!
Join me here next Monday to get your week off to a great start again OR sign up for my newsletter and get next week's video in your inbox at 5pm. (Irish time)
Remember, reading the recipe book never baked the cake. These two simple practices will take between 5 and 10 minutes a day. Have a great day and a FAB week!
ALL my love, M
