Can't answer this on twitter or facebook.

Where in your life are you being selfish, and in what areas are you making a great contribution?

I find myself being selfish with MY time. I tend to put so much importance on my stressful day that when I get home I want to be left alone to do my own thing. My own thing generally involves surfing the internet, watching youtube or catching up on too many TV shows. As a result I end up not spending quality time with my six year old. We don't talk much. We don't play as often as we should. This is something I am consciously aware of and really trying to make an effort to fix.

I feel like my great contribution is coming from the person I am transforming into. The new focus I have on really listening to my body and my self have contributed so much into my life already. I am more positive. I feel like I am more enjoyable to be around. I come to the table with a better willingness to listen. I am being love and putting gratitude out in all that I am doing and I hope that in doing so I am contributing to the world around me. There's so much room to grow in that. I want to be an example in my community and a role model for my daughter. If I can show her how to be positive, see beauty around her, think consciously about the way she speaks and acts, eat healthy and be present in her life - what a great contribution to leave in the world!
