Start with Love

I wake up every morning wondering what to do and where to start.  There are definitely many things to do.  I was taught to find excitement in the tasks at hand so I will get excited to go to work.  Some task I like but more I can careless for.  So, I lay in bed a bit longer because I can.  I am an entrepreneur so I work when I can, so I tell myself.  My 30 minutes turns to 1 hour and my one hour turns to 2.  I finally get up find a few things to do to get the motor running.  I look to my clothes to see if something stands out, I look to my books to find an inspiring thought most of time I don't get one.  I jump in the shower which is refreshing and a good start.

This morning was not different than most morning.  I get up or try to get up to try to find something to grab on to a meaning to it all.  There is a great deal of people and task waiting for me but I do not know where to start.  Today, I was given a thought... start with Love.  Get up and love something, love someone through acts or words.  So, I got up get myself ready, came downstairs to say hi to Julie, one of team member, watered the plants and start sharing my thoughts.

"Start with loves" means to take a moment and love something or somebody without worries of the world.  Begin there... period.  Give yourself enough time to enjoy yourself, your morning.  I should make a list of things that brings out love.  I can clean a portion of the house, water the plants, take a walk, write a note, share a thought... to be continued.

"Start with love" is a still a bit foreign to me.  I tend to go back to my old way of thinking of "what can I conquer."  Starting with love means total release and total surrender of all possessions, just pure love for others.  Have faith everything will be fine while you are away for that few moments takes time and practice.  I am in continuous reminder that all will be fine.  I must believe that the hours I put in to care for the family and business is enough.  I must be happy with each day I put in this life and this business.

So, I start... with love.
