steer your joy: monday's roadmap to inner peace

the purpose of our lives is to be happy.

hey, there!

happy monday, driver of your own destiny! remember yesterday's sticky note adventure? well, today we're shifting gears from jon gordon's energy bus to the dalai lama and desmond tutu's joy mobile. these wise passengers remind us that 'the purpose of our lives is to be happy.' but here's the twist - happiness isn't a destination, it's the journey itself.

think about it: you're not just driving to work today, you're steering towards joy. yesterday, you asked yourself where you're driving your energy. today, let's fuel up on compassion and inner peace. feeling stressed about that monday morning meeting? take a deep breath. that's you, tending to the flowers in your mental garden. got a challenging task ahead? remember, you can't remove all the weeds, but you can choose which plants to nurture.

as you navigate through your day, keep your hands on the wheel of the present moment. each time you spot your 'i am the driver' note, use it as a reminder to check your joy levels. are you idling in worry or cruising in contentment? the choice is yours. you've got the map, you've got the fuel - now let's hit the road to joy!

daily exercise

find a quiet spot and sit comfortably for 5 minutes. close your eyes and visualize yourself as a flower in a garden. with each breath, imagine you're growing stronger, more vibrant. as you exhale, let go of any weeds (negative thoughts) around you. open your eyes, feeling refreshed and ready to bloom in your day.

brick by brick,
