More Precious Than Jewels -- Motivational Minute (13_067)



Quote of the day

“The words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels.” – Hazrat Inayat Khan

Consider:

Starting your day off on the right foot determines how the rest of your day plays out.  Some say the first 30 minutes to an hour after you wake up is the most important part of the day. Seeing as these early morning moments are so important, and realizing that this time has a significant influence on the quality of every minute that follows, it is key that you use this time wisely.

I personally have a morning ritual. The first thing I do before getting out of bed is give thanks for four or five different things. After cleaning up, I read some inspiring, uplifting, positive material, followed by writing in my journal, including writing one or two affirmations to keep in the forefront of my mind during the day. I then spend a short time meditating or praying. All this takes about 30-40 minutes, which I gladly set aside, as I have seen what great benefits this practice has on my life personally. 

You may feel that you don’t have so much time to spend, but I assure you if you fill your mind with good and positive thoughts first thing in the morning—only the best of thoughts that motivate you to take good, positive action—you will notice that the rest of your day will consistently unfold in the most marvelous ways. Like the quote says, by taking in “words that enlighten the soul” you will find they “are more precious than jewels”.

Wishing you all the best,
