Look where celebration falls – right after gratitude and just before completion. That’s an extremely powerful stage of the cycle that should not be overlooked. sadly, I did overlook this before. I had to emotionally survive when I was preparing to celebrate.. and so with such an unplanned shift I was instantly suppressed /so it makes sense how now it is coming full-circle and I am being given that chance again... and to share it with the world ;) I am learning to live wholeheartedly again and speak openly from that same wound which once paralyzed me. I love this line you shared: 1. Celebration helps us stay in the present where our power is. it makes me feel so strong to repeat this as an affirmation thank you, Jenn .-= Jenn´s last blog ..<a href="http://jenniferzuniga.blogspot.com/2010/03/seated-next-to-my-joy-new-position.html" rel="nofollow">Seated Next to My Joy: A New Position</a> =-.

There is nothing self-centered about being all that you are and letting others know about it. Evelyn - strut on! That's a wonderful picture and mantra. Fawn I love the Tolle point. Celebration is recognizing the goodness within us and rejoicing because of it. Kenneth you make a fine point.

My mantra is "How"? How do i do it? This is my strength with my clients but my own Achilles heal. A line in Robert Frost's poem "Mending Wall" reads: "something there is that doesn't love a wall." That line came to mind but a bit changed: "something there is that doesn't love the self." It seems that celebrating is about self-love, which is foundational to good relationships which are vital to successful personal and business life and that 'self-loving' looks like gets confused with ego-serving but it's not, it is a necessary component for delightful life..and work (smiling). Here's another quote that I find amazing: "goodness can't be accomplished by TRYING to be good, but by enjoying the goodness that is already within you" (author unknown, I think it's Eckart Tolle) OK, so how does everyone 'celebrate' themselves and their goodness? Here's my post about 13 ways to Celebrate More Often. I could only come up with 8 -- can anyone help me out? http://fawnachang.wordpress.com/2008/04/25/13-ways-to-celebrate-more-often/ Tom,
