I'm currently re-reading "The Four Agreements ~ a Practical Guid to Personal Freedom " by Don Miguel Ruiz,  and realized this morning that I tend to be very conscious with what I say to others; being sure that I don't promise what I cannot deliver. I'm very care-filled with my husband, being sure to not say things ~ perform "black magic" ~ when angry with something I feel he's done...

Yet, I'm nowhere near as impeccable, or even conscious with my words to me! For instance, my plan at night may be to get up early and get on my bike for a ride yet, the next morning, I've got all the reasons for not doing so, even if I am up! "It's too cold, too dark, too early", etc. Or, I'm going to be more conscious about my food program yet, we're out and about and I hear the excuses ~ "I've been really 'good' all week"; "what if I die tomorrow, shouldn't I live today?", "I'll make up for it with a good workout tomorrow" (knowing that may not happen AND, it really doesn't make up for the damage eating poorly does in the long run.)

As with everything I do, to be impeccable with my word "should" begin with me. I've found if I treat myself right, I treat others right; if I am happy, I share happy; if I am feeling wealthy, I share feeling wealthy.

Like a pebble dropped in the water, it begins with me, so my mantra at this moment is "Be Impeccable With Your Word"... what's yours?

Enough for now,

Impeccable with WORD
written by coachnraw , August 12, 2010

I see WORD as so important. I have recently gotten so DOWN because I havent been impeccable with my WORD to myself. To others yes...to myself no.

Actually NOT toothers either, as you said, when I treat myself right, I treat others right. I ahve been sharing neg things with others as a result of 1) allowing that from others recently..ugh
2) becoming more neg due to my low state

Yesterday I began to turn this car around.
I drew lines and boundaries for all I will have (allow in some cases) in my life, only uplifting to the degree I possibly can.

Creating what I want for my life, saying no to another to stand for myself.Exiting from spaces that drain and drawing towards that which fills.

Doing what I say I will do by when I say I will do it, if not clenaing it up and making new promises (landmark, you know).
