How do you know your day is made ? That it is enough ?
Is that when you cross your last item on your to do list ?
Is that when your boss congratulates you with a “Great Job” ?
Is that when your kids hug you when you come back home ?
Is that when there is a special feeling in your belly?
I spent many years longing for more. More power, more recognition, more money, more possessions, more responsibilities. And it took me a while to realize it did not necessarily lead to more joy, fulfillement, health, well-being, wealth or fun.
As I reflect on what made my days WOW recently, just one of the below is ENOUGH.
– Cosy family evening. Home made pizza + movie combo.
– Climbing session. Try, fall, shout, and most importantly have fun with great people!
– A deep conversation with one extraodinary person.
– Singing out loud in the car.
– Laughing to silly jokes.
– Few hours in the mountains.
– A good book.
– A smile.
– The special feeling I stepped out of my comfort zone, just few millimeters.
– A glass of wine. Or a bite of extra-dark chocolate. Or both!
– Writing. And feeling the inspiration guiding my fingers on the keyboard.
– Improvised time together with friends.
– Playing board games.
– Connecting two persons together.
– A strong NO to something that is draining me of energy.
– A commmitted YES to something that is fueling me with energy.
– A breathtaking landscape.
…. and so much more !
And the more I reflect on what makes my day WOW, the more I realize I am ENOUGH as I am to create this WOWness for me and for those who matter around me.
I am ENOUGH to make bold choices. I am ENOUGH to honor my values. I am ENOUGH to go after what I really want. I am ENOUGH to express my needs. I am ENOUGH to try, to fall, to succeed, to learn, to bounce back.
I am ENOUGH to invent my life. And I am ENOUGH to play it. Boldly.
I am ENOUGH. And so are YOU.
Be brave.
Love,
Delphine
ENOUGH IS NOT TOO LITTLE.
