DanceMind: Dear Janie: Be your Number 1!

Janie,
It worked out for you!  I am constantly amazed at hind site.  Worry, anticipatory fear, fret and dread can take up a lot of 'life time.' As you look back, was it worth your while?

It is a part of the human condition to experience anxiety, although with great variance. Catch yourself in the act. Ask yourself these questions, "What else can this mean?" "What don't I know right now?"  "Will time tell me what I need to know?"

Worry, and all, are a departure from the present. You are reaching into the future, where there is unpredictability.  We believe that we know all, yet as we move into the upcoming moments life continues to happen around us.

Have you ever noticed that what is in our minds (what we focus on?) is what we look for in our environments?

There is MS. Negative and Doom and there is MS. Positive and Light.

Anyone can find a doom and gloom in the most perfect weather day. 78 degrees, blue skies.
"Ack, it is supposed to rain next week." "I have to mow the grass now. I hate doing that."

Ms Positive and Light stands and appreciates the sun and sky as she moves thru her day. The weather simply is.

Sometimes a simple easy slow breath can return you to the moment so you can ask yourself the
questions above.

Especially if you notice a pattern that disrupts you.

In dance world. You do not know what they are discussing behind the scenes, how things can shift and change.  You must learn to move with the flow and influence your position.

How can you be the best you can be?
