Eager

“wanting very much to do or have something, especially something interesting or enjoyable”

Eager is “inspired” on steroids. It’s not just a thought, or a good idea, or a new entry in our “someday soon” calendar… no…it’s so interesting, it’s so thrilling, it’s so uplifting, that we can’t wait to get started on it…it motivates us to get out of bed early, to get the ball rolling, to make it happen.

In a nutshell: It. Makes. Our. Hearts. Sing!

We’re encouraged to ask ourselves: what makes our heart sing…what is it that makes us eager to make “it” happen? Whatever that is…”it” needs to be first on our priority list…even if we can only spend a few moments a day on it…make it happen…step by step…inch by inch…day by day.

What makes me eager these days? …working on my Archangel Mandalas series. I’ve started the third one…although I’ve stalled out on it of late…bc I let the next phase intimidate me…I’ll get over it soon. I just need to have a conversation with it to work out the details.

The fourth one has me super eager bc it’s such a unique and interesting approach that I want to start working on RIGHT NOW. Technically, I’m already working on it…doing all the prep work so that I can start it on January 1. By that time I will already be back on track with number 3. And yes, I can work on two projects concurrently…and technically, I have about eight projects in the works to some degree.

How about you? Is being eager a core value for you?

BTW…here’s what it looked like to begin with …

🌟 creating mandalas — awakening creativity

About the 2024 Mandalas of the Day

Each day I will create and post a mandala inspired by one of 366 “value” words chosen randomly. The objective being to discover for myself which ones would best represent my core values…and by doing so, I hope it inspires you to determine your own.

My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits. Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it. As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
