Relish in today & Take on Tomorrow!
PERFORMANCE
Looking at your watch, checking your Day timer, you smile in anticipation of your next activity. Warming up before taking the first step in your dance for that hour will ease the transition between tasks, between mental efforts, between people. If your work requires face to face relationships, either intense or casual, your warm up allows others to interrupt (cut in), change partners, or simply “Exit Stage Left” without causing undue hardship to your or your schedule.
Maintaining the image of your dance throughout your day, allows you to go with the flow. Whether today’s dance is a solo performance, a partnership, a line dance, ballet or a folk dance, your grace, strength, and overall well-being brings your best performance to the stage.
Depending the dance you select to perform during the period, your movement has the most positive effect on your partners, group, and the audience. Even though the alarm goes off to signal the end of one activity and beginning of another, your finale awaits you not the impersonal, objective hands of a machine indicating the top of an hour.
You may shift from a waltz to a jitterbug, from a tango to hip hop, from flamenco to the electric slide between hours, days, or even minutes, depending on your task, your approach, your feelings about the action and your best approach in the moment.
Try this tomorrow
After appropriate warm-up, perform your activity with your music in mind. Sway in your desk chair, tap your toes beneath your desk, slide across your kitchen, skip to and through the open doors, tippy-toe up the stairs, step up, swing and sway at every opportunity. Life is a Spontaneous Free Flowing Dance or it should be!
APPLAUSE! APPLAUSE!
Dancing through your activity broadens your perspective, bringing inspiration and awareness to improve your performance. Before the phone rings summoning you to a meeting, before you put your keys in the ignition to drive home, after the last forkful of the evening meal, always remember to TAKE A BOW!
Take several bows, you’ve earned the appreciation of your body, your mind, your spirit and your audience. Listening to the admiration from inside and outside you, as you cool down and ease into the next hour, the next activity, this is not the finale. Your dance continues into the next warm up, inspired performance and appreciative cool down before the next time period, the next activity.
Try this tomorrow
Before the final curtain, before you close your eyes to sleep reflect on those spaces in your day filled with action PLUS motion when you dance through the time doing your work. Are you smiling at the recent memory? Of course you are!
You’ve sprinkled sparkle on your schedule, you’ve lightened your load, and you’ve created anticipation for the next page of your Day timer---and the dance you will do as you fill the hours with accomplishments.
Warm up, perform, and cool down. “Take your bows, relish in today and take on tomorrow!”
