Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration
The focus for today is: I accept, without self-recrimination, the choices I have made on my life's path.
One of the blockages to advancing on our life's path is our self-judgment. We tend to judge and criticize ourselves for things we have done, or things we didn't do that we think we "should have done" or could have done better.
These negative thoughts and vibrations block the flow of life's positive energy. The negativity we send towards our own self stops our innate creativity and receptivity to our intuition and makes it difficult for highest good to manifest.
Thus, in order to progress on our life's path with joy and harmony, we need to drop all self-recrimination and accept that whatever has happened is over and done with. What is past is in the past. There is no point in dwelling in the "I should have done better" world. Yes, we can benefit from learning from our mistakes, of course, but then we accept the choices we've made, and we move on to creating a better life for ourselves and for the world at large.
Today's Focus was excerpted from the InnerSelf.com article:
Don't Be So Hard On Yourself: Accepting What Has Been
Written by Marie T. Russell

Today, and every day, we accept, without self-recrimination, the choices we have made on our life's path.
EDITOR'S NOTE: UPDATE ON THE NEW CONCEPT FOR THE DAILY INSPIRATION:
This is "day 5" of a new concept for the Daily Inspiration. For Monday's Daily Inspiration, I wrote a short article. Then, on each day of this week, I added to the article. The "new episode" each day was written both as an addition to the article, and as the source for the Daily Inspiration for that day. At the end of the week, the article will be complete and featured in its entirety in Sunday evening's InnerSelf Magazine, along with an audio and video of the complete article.
As a Daily Inspiration subscriber, you not only get the inspiration each day,, in print, audio, and video versions, and you also get an advance read on my article as it develops.
This is the first week and so far, the process has been quite a new experience for me, and it's been fun to flow along with the energy. This is a bit of an experiment, so we may adjust the concept as we go along.
I welcome your comments and suggestions by using the Contact Us form on the "This and That" drop down menu above.
Wishing you a loving and accepting day!
