Discernment – Characteristic / Virtue of the Week

Do you ever feel that you are so busy running around trying to fit everything into your day, so you can achieve everything that you have on your list of what you need to get done, and still not feel a sense of accomplishment and purpose?

Do you feel stuck and not have a clear sense of what you want out of life or what your purpose is? Having a clear understanding of what you value in life is a great place to start because then you have a sense of direction.

Discovering your direction and purpose in life takes insight in regard to what you value in life and time for reflection is needed to do this whether the concern is based on your parenting, your business decisions or any aspect of your life such as your finances.

Having trust in your own intuition is important because that’s where the guidance is although when you get the guidance you need you may feel uncomfortable because it is likely to mean getting out of your comfort zone.

As Paulo Friere states ‘Reflection and action must never be undertaken independently’. Go forth and take action as your heart knows what you need to do to fulfil your soul.

Self-development means constant transformation throughout your life – allow the ‘Virtue of the Week’ to serve as a gentle reminder of who you are and who you want to be. Help create the world you want to live in as you practice a virtue each week you also serve as a positive example to others and inspire others to do the same. Be the change you want to see in the world.

Actions to take to practice Discernment:

  • Every morning:
    1. Read the card
    2. If you feel the need take a few minutes to reflect on what it means to you right now
    3. Trust that at the right time during the day this virtue will come to mind and you will know when to act on it
  • Every evening:
    1. Take a few minutes to reflect on how you applied this virtue in your life today
    2. If you didn’t practice it, learn from your experiences by considering what you would do differently next time. If you did practice it then acknowledge yourself for doing so as it increases your self-awareness and self-confidence.
    3. Acknowledge yourself when you do apply this virtue in your life. You will become more self-aware and more confident within yourself.
