Making good thoughts even better!

Making good thoughts even better!

My three beautiful children are an infinite stream of life force. We're in a constant flow of giving and receiving. 


Big, who is 13, took a friend to the Berkshire East mountain coaster yesterday. I'm treasuring the years while I'm still the driver, and decided to take little man on the ride to play at the mountain while the teens did their thing. 


In one of  the last summer dress days of the season, I found myself climbing through trees and crawling through tubes, while he discovered just how brave and strong he is. He literally ended the course, shoulders held high, exclaiming "I am strong" and "I am brave". 


My Big came off the mountain coaster beaming with joy. It had been on her bucket list for a long time and she earned the money herself, arranged to bring a friend, and enjoyed the ride. (No picture, because... 13... end of story.)


Soaking up the sunshine with two happy kids in outdoor adventure, while Daddy, Middle, and Dog went for a hike... I can't think of a more perfect day.


BUT, that's where The Model comes into play. 


 

"The Model"- a Brooke Castillo process, with an Amanda Kingsley twist...

 

SITUATION
- Really awesome day


MY THOUGHT ABOUT THE SITUATION
- "Life is amazing."

 

THE FEELING THIS THOUGHT TRIGGERS
- JOY and PEACE


THE ACTION I TAKE FROM THIS FEELING
- Actively noticing how fortunate I am, and thinking thoughts of gratitude.

 

THE RESULT OF THIS ACTION
- Even more JOY and PEACE, with a side of very happy family.

 

ASK (Is this in alignment with my WHY?)
-YES!

 

The Model applied for up-leveling: 

 

SAME SITUATION
-
Really awesome day


MY ADDITIONAL THOUGHT ABOUT THE SAME SITUATION
- “How can it get any better than this?” (This is arguably my FAVORITE thought, learned from Access Consciousness.)



THE NEW FEELING THIS THOUGHT TRIGGERS
- Curiosity

THE NEW ACTION I TAKE FROM THIS FEELING
-
Actively seek more ways to make the day magical, but also ALLOW it to flow as is. All with the same FULL gratitude from above. 

THE RESULT OF THIS ACTION
- The day keeps getting better and better!

 

ASK (Is this in alignment with my WHY?)
-Absolutely!

 

WIN!

This little trick of using The Model when things are going well to kick them up another notch, is a GAME CHANGER.
