Becoming Today with Rochelle Jeanette

Yesterday we began the week by noting the changing seasons. Both on the calendar and in the potential for reaping an abundant harvest in our own lives.

Changes can be quick, sudden, even unexpected but  more often than not they are gradual and develop over time. This process also involves effort, dedication and commitment.

On this edition of “Becoming Today” we’ll discuss what to do when you’re waiting to embrace change.

Without a doubt seasons change. This is true not only on the calendar but for each of our lives as well. This week, Wednesday (September 22nd) marks such a passage in time. We will welcome the Autumnal (or Fall) Equinox. 

This day could be perceived as when the darkness starts to win. I’m not giving that deep meaning, rather I giggle asI type it, because it’s the day when we start to have less illumination in our day - for the next three months, the number of hours of daylight will continue to grow shorter.

Do not despair, it's not all about darkness in growing cycles, Autumn gives us ripeness and maturity. The harvest season is associated with abundance, prosperity, wealth and maturity.

It’s part of our circle of life, the Sacred Hoop, another revolution along our shared path that if we choose to allow it can be a time of learning, growth and further development.

Over the past week, our conversation here on “Becoming Today”, focused on our commitments to empowering joy in our lives as well as being vessels of compassionate, positive energy.

Operating within certain “notches”, what resonated for me was some positive reinforcement. I’ve known for a while it’s not the circumstances of life, it’s me.

Not that I’m deeply flawed, though we are all imperfect,  we can still be living each day to always be becoming and live a fully enriched and rewarding life.

Quoting an old song, our headline today can be pronounced as Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate The Positive.

Good advice. A positive mental attitude brings joy into our lives and boosts the spirits of all those we encounter.

On this edition of of “Becoming Today”, we’ll sing along in our discussion as we consider why,

“You've got to accentuate the positive

Eliminate the negative

Latch on to the affirmative

Don't mess with Mister In-Between…”

There are times when getting their first doesn’t mean you’ve won.

Speeding your way through life, rushing about in a hurry to what?

Many times you’re not even sure. So why be so determined to always operate full speed ahead, or at warp speed. Many times if you let off the accelerator a little you will arrive on time, safe and in a more relaxed state.

On this edition of “Becoming Today” we’ll explore what it’s like living in the notches…

Too many times we hear, see, and read messages, attempting to reinforce that failure is not allowed. That failing at something marks you for life as less than. Nothing could be further than the truth.

Failure is not only an option but as we’ll discuss here on “Becoming Today” it is also inevitable.

Joy is one of the greatest gifts we can receive.

I pray that you are consistently developing and redeveloping your joy.

Finding it, unleashing it, sharing it always be “Becoming” joyful, joy filled and joyous. A lack of joy is of our own creation, it is born from how we choose to respond to circumstances.

Recently I asked for your input. I told you that coming soon,we would be undertaking a discussion about commitments. But wait,... there's more.

What I didn’t tell you was I was having a bit of a quandary myself about commitments, covenants, the differences between the two, and whether or not my standards were too high. These are some of the issues we’ll focus on now. here on Becoming Today,

While things are fresh in our minds is the best time to review and reconsider aspects we may have missed. Before we take our look back at the week that was here on “Becoming Today”, we need to pause.

Taking a moment today to remember the day when the world stopped turning…
