Creator-based® Complete Part 2

 


We all struggle with a desire to be more than we are.  


We see the images in the media and on billboards and unconsciously compare ourselves, inevitably coming up short.  


Then we worry- am I good enough? How could I be better? 

Why is it so easy for others but not for me?


I’m here with good news.  

You are not alone.  

We all struggle.  


Seriously, even the perfect Mom down the street struggles, and the rich gal on the hill who has everything.  


We all struggle.  

It’s a concept called Common Humanity.


There are basic commonalities we all share as human beings.  

We all need food, air, sunshine, water, and love. 

(We have been referred to as complicated house plants) 

We all feel sad, angry, happy, and rejected at times.  

But somehow, that common humanity idea doesn’t stick 

when our inner insecurities surface.


That’s where a little pep talk helps.  

You can comfort and help yourself by choosing some helpful thoughts.


One of my favorite thoughts is:


I’m not perfect, and I don’t have to be.  

(Somehow, my inner rebel loves that one!)


Perfect does not mean entirely without flaws.  

Perfect means fully developed and complete. 

It is possible to have a piece of art, architecture, or music that is perfect yet could appear flawed to an untrained observer.  

Something can be perfect and still in development.


Perfect things are fully developed, complete in this present stage and moment.


Enter my second favorite thought-

I am perfectly whole precisely as I am. 


See, perfectly whole means we are precisely where our Creator expects us to be in this stage of our growth and development.  We are learning, growing, and changing at the perfect rate and direction.


I can be 25lbs overweight, have a zit on my chin, and have just yelled at my kids and still be perfectly whole because I am on my journey and rocking it!  


You are complete as well.


Remember that, friend.

The world is blessed to have you in all of your quirks, messiness, and glory.


Because you are perfectly you.

And that is exactly as it should be.


All my love,

Beth


Be you. Nobody does it better.

Creator-based® Consiousness

  Monday Morning Inspiration June 2024 |  EDITION NO. 00230 This made me giggle- we have so many choices and options that sometimes I forget that behaving “becomingly” is an option…. I hope you become what you want to be today. Do you sometimes feel like a 'woman without"? You may be familiar with the Bible story told of a poor widow bringing her offering to the temple.  It was such a small amount, a mite. It was not even enough to buy her bread and cheese for a single meal.  Would it really make any difference? Yet she was commended because “She of her want cast in all she hath.” Her society had defined her as a ‘woman without.’  She was a woman without a husband, a woman without means, a woman without a fancy house, but was she truly a woman without anything?    Do you sometimes define yourself as a ‘woman without’?   'Women without' = women without a job, women without children, women without the coolest phone, women without a great friend gro...

Creator-based® Coaching is born!

  Monday Morning Inspiration April 22 2024 |  EDITION NO. 00229 Hey friend, Let’s talk  Creation .  Paul taught the Philippians, “I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.”  That’s a bold declaration of the faith that Paul had in his omnipotent Creator.  Faith is the power that creates and moves  all things.  Now, don’t abandon ship here- this is not a Sunday School lesson.  Faith is what you used to turn on your lights this morning, remember?  Faith is what you used to start your car too.  You believed the light would turn on if you flicked the switch you wouldn’t have taken the action to do it.  I know you have faith. You’ve got this.     Let’s go back to the first step of that formula for creating your one, amazing life.  If you could feel something you really wanted to feel, what would that feeling be? I wanted to feel happy.  I thought I had put together my one, perfect, happy life....
