In today's episode, the message I want to give you all is that of understanding your own gifts and talents, along with when to ask for help from others.
The month of December has brought so many opportunities. My son made 50 dozen rolls for charity, then we had an order for a further 20 dozen, I was supposed to make several pans of marshmallows, I was hired to sing at a Christmas party, and I had agreed to record a podcast with my friend. I had a minor meltdown, felt overwhelmed, and Aaron asked me what would bring me the most joy out of all those things. The answer was singing, so we looked at what could be taken off my plate.
I tried to delegate the marshmallow making and it didn't work out, so I had to go to them and just say that I was sorry, but I couldn't make them. What I learned from this is that I need to stop and ask with everything I do. Is this in my highest and best good?
I have started reading "Who Not How" by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy, and it has changed my perspective. Not everyone has the same gifts. We are all unique with unique gifts, and we should seek those that can help us to make ourselves and our endeavors better.
We are meant to be interconnected by using the who, not the how. We are also capable of learning new truths about ourselves and new skills. Look to the light to dispel the darkness and free yourself up to peace and connection with others. Look for the good and you will find it.
