3. TODAY’S
SELF-OBSERVATION
Sunday's Reiki share was a success, with the exception of one individual. It is inevitable that you cannot please everybody, and rather than waste energy on them, it's better to spend it where you are a hit. If you build, they will come, and be aware of the opposition and carry on anyway are my adopted philosophies.
It's important to get arse in gear at the beginning of the week and get things done, as that affects the flow of the whole week, so I will endeavour to do so!
