WELCOME TO ALL BMINDFUL COMMUNITY!

Please , if you will join me in expressing

your newest found joy of taking responsibility for your good and beautiful life!

“By activating an expansive, tolerant, and creative mindset, positive feelings maximize the social, intellectual, and physical benefits that will accrue.” - Martin SeligmanSee the source image

Today is January  4, 2023 … a brand new year, a brand new month, brand new day and yes yes yes … a brand new moment.

For many, you are experiencing a ‘luxury’ of your foundation remaining the same …the basics that is.

Why do I say a luxury? If you are someone who knows how fortunate … how blessed you are in any given moment , then you most probably are benefiting from a state of gratitude every day.

You most probably are choosing to expound on the good you have and co-creating it to greater ideal in at least some major areas of your life. You enjoy your passionate life.
You also understand the value of your inner world - which does in fact assist greatly in creating your outer world.

Though, if you  are among the many that have had major changes in your life, and starting fresh is more of a reality than you ever planned for …more profound if you will, then either way this Happiness Meeting is for you .

Though, lastly … though not least… if you have difficulty with gratitude and/ or optimism… I invite you to grow your joy and possibilities also with this fresh new meeting of 2023

 

So what is this topic - It’s Learned  Optimism & Resiliency

 Learned Optimism  originated from Positive Psychology; Dr Martin Seligman.

 

 The rest of this Intro has been created in quotes . I invite you please to read them in story form & then allow this Happiness Meeting to be whatever you would like it to be.

Intro post being where you are- continue reading please

Then please go to This Link to post 2

“The good life is best construed as a matrix that includes happiness, occasional sadness, a sense of purpose, playfulness, and psychological flexibility, as well autonomy, mastery, and belonging.” - Robert Biswas-Diener

Andrea Bell is a Clinical Social Worker, Social Worker

Quote by Andrea Bell

“Someone who has good emotional self-regulation has the ability to keep their emotions in check. They can resist impulsive behaviors that might worsen their situation, and they can cheer themselves up when they’re feeling down. They have a flexible range of emotional and behavioral responses that are well matched to the demands of their environment”

This of course, is not to say you

have not been pretty terrific …already 

and your experiences

are ones that you wouldn’t want to cherish. 


oh no!!!

It does say:

To keep moving forward we are allowing other parts of our selves to develop and be seen by ourselves .

Learned Optimism and Resiliency

Very beautiful and inspiring topic to explore!

Thank you for your powerful focus questions. 

These questions are designed to take you straight to the epi-center of where you are, in this moment. 

  • Positive self-image:
  • Problem solving:
  • Self regulation:
  • Adaptability:
  • Faith/ understanding meaning and one's purpose:
  • Positive outlook:
  • Skills and talents that are valued by self and community:
  • Acceptance by others:

 

Will return to begin inventory!

“Radical Acceptance is the ability to face hardships with greater love and deeper awareness.
Contemplation shapes radical acceptance as a way to choose love and peace over anger and despair.
Begin by finding this within ourselves before helping others.

Learned self optimism is self empowering. It's the main ingredient in self care.

It is sourced when you begin to take care and listen to what your mind, body and spirit are communicating to you.

Today, I really needed a brake, but I had so many things to do, and time was getting away. I just needed 5 minutes! Part of self regulation means listening and respecting your limits and your needs. There are many things that fall under the self regulation umbrella.

Emotions Flow

 


Emotions flow

Like a rainbow of colors

From light to dark

All sublime and intertwined

Each one desperately

Wanting to be heard

I let them

Have their say

my heart listens

To each one

And when they

Are finally done

I salute them

One by one

For they are me.

Words are like seeds. When you write them out, they grow into your dreams and spark the imagination of others.

Motivation is such a powerful energy.

Without it, the very same things carried out without it , will get in the way of all beautiful possibilities. You are an excellent example of doing what it takes with the passion & drive to make it  from the heart with soul and using all your capabilities.

..the key to daily practice is to put your desired actions as close to the path of least resistance as humanly possible. Identify the activation energy—the time, the choices, the mental and physical effort they require—and then reduce it. If you can cut the activation energy for those habits that lead to success, even by as little as 20 seconds at a time, it won’t be long before you start reaping their benefits.

I sit motionless

Upon a flower

 

I can fly

But I dare not

My wings are

Useless

 

It is complicated 

Beyond mere words

Part of me 

Can’t let go

 

And yet I so

Want to fly

 

Flexing my wings

To full open

 

I think?

Do I go?

Do I Stay?  

 

Will I  

Fly once again

Oh! yes I will

 

The sweet nectar 

Of  optimism 

Is just a thought away.

Love quotes I love ❤️ From

DPsayings.com

 

“My love is unconditional.

Your action is irrelevant.”

 

“Once you learn to accept

and love them for who they are,

you subconsciously learn to love

unconditionally.”

 

“I love you”
That means I’m not just here for

the pretty parts.

I’m here no matter what.


How true these quotes are.

I loved being able 

to fall back on a best friendship. 
I need to remember this as LOVE…

because I only know love & love is my life.

 

 


Off the cuff responses to new reflection questions in process:

  1. Life is a journey; It’s one of the most famous phrases that we hear in our life. It’s true because, in life, we face many heartaches. And also many more joys which make our heart pleasant. It’s not a destination for happiness or sadness but its continuous journey to experience every aspect of this life.To know it much better, (part of many quotes from dpsayings.com site)

Declaration

I love/loved my spouse more than any part of me can understand, and I am eternally filled with love now..


 

 


This is quite an experiential question

If I could tell you just how much I have put into ‘this season of my life’

… well, it has been ‘everything’

 

It often feels like the experiences are as full

as all of my ‘seasons of living’ throughout my life

put together … I suppose feeling like this makes a great deal of sense,

because my life has been very rich ,

never taken for granted .


Many decades   of married life is very purposeful. To live life with purpose ‘as one’ & has 2 individuals that are their own people / though greater together than they could ever be alone …that -depicts what we often call …living from a beginners mind & heart …

though also like fresh and new old souks daily 

After  a loss of this magnitude

& giving it everything I got’

there have been times, I thought…

with this much focus …on recovery  I could now wrap this grief thing up (lol) It doesn’t work that way .

 

With the tools I have acquired throughout my life/ and new ones inspired by my new season  today…

I have hope

& inspiration to allow for

a wonderful life one day at a time

Thank you God.




Love is not a temporary feeling

or an emotion.

Emotions and feelings change,

sometimes daily .

But true unconditional love is everlasting .

2.Apparently the following is a semi-popular quote. I hadnt heard of it though appreciate it:

You had a purpose before anyone had an opinion. – Anonymous 

How does that quote affect your feelings toward your purpose ?

 

I would have to go back in time an incredibly long way

to remember my purpose in my soul , that had nothing to do with another individual on any level. And the individual who I spent most of my life and love with goes back that far with me. To even try to exclude him to focus only on myself , is more unimaginable than I could understand. It would be like separating myself from my heart.


I have most definitely been favorably influenced  …

even thru any hardship .. and of course thru all the great times…

Because everything I have every experienced brought me to this present moment 

which I have chosen to walk

this path of love 

even now.

 






3. After reading the following quote, please take your time … and comment on what you are feeling? Thank You 

“So, this is my life. And I want you to know that I am both happy and sad and I’m still trying to figure out how that could be.” – Stephen Chbosky

Happy & Sad

 

This was the hardest question for me/

4.  When you feel the following quote pic from above that says

CHERISH YESTERDAY

DREAM TOMORROW

LIVE TODAY 

what surfaces for you?

 

CHERISH YESTERDAY

I love my memories.
Cherishing yesterday because of how  I approached things … made life a gift. Life doesn’t have to be perfect to be wonderful.

 

DREAM TOMORROW

Dreaming is a beautiful thing. I am relearning  that now.

 

LIVE TODAY

In response to ♡ ˚ Path of Love's post:

Thank you for adding these questions. 

Thank you for your openness and your willingness to share how you are doing.

Your words have helped me, and I believe your words have helped many others, and in your words, you have become a teacher, a leader and an advocate whose experience has touched all who are close to you. 

There is much to learn and much purpose in this growth.

I like inventory questions...

I would like to start with your #3, the hard question:

Happy and sad... "still trying to figure out how that can be."

I look at my life, and I never wonder "how that can be," because its been my life long understanding that life is complex, and when you are in a happy spot, it supports my belief that life has balance, life has challenges, and not everything is going to come easy. Sometimes, you have to work really hard, maybe for most of your adult life - just so you can have time, when you need it the most, to look back and see how much you built and created and also how you built and created who you are, and what you became.

I think we are all artists.

I think we are all creating with everything that we have and everything that we believe we are.

We did create who we became. Happy and sad are like day turning into night. They are inseparable because they are like opposite sides of the same coin - or the same single system. 

 

“Radical Acceptance is the ability to face hardships with greater love and deeper awareness.

to be greater than your body,

and to be greater than time.

And if you do, you will be great.

I mean, that’s it!” – Dr. Joe Dispenza

In response to Joy Grows here's post:

Btw Joy Grows Here 

you have been instrumental in my remembering passion in a variety of goals 

And like Jack Canfield says :

if you think you can’t, remember a time when you have had personal triumphs in another area.

So thank you for sharing what matters to you

"Change is inevitable in life. You can either resist it and potentially get run over by it, or you can choose to cooperate with it, adapt to it, and learn how to benefit from it. When you embrace change you will begin to see it as an opportunity for growth." ~ Jack Canfield
