The Power of Harmony

Psychology defines harmony as a positive state of inner peace, calmness, and balance, as well as the feeling of being tuned with the world. 

Harmony is self-generated.  No one can make you feel it, and no one can take it away from you.  You get to choose how you react to the things happening in your life and the world in general.  Although tough things happen and we need to feel the feelings these experiences create, we also get to choose how we want to manage it.

This is not about pushing the negative feelings down and ignore how we’re feeling.  This is about seeing it for what it is, feel all the emotions that are bubbling up and acknowledge that it sucks, then decide you’re ready to do what you can to make the best of it.

There’s going be challenges coming your way, usually unexpected.  Know that no matter what comes your way, you can manage it. 

I have a demanding day job.  I've been in this role for three years and it has been the most challenging time in my career.  I've been through all of the ups and downs of leading a team.  I've learned from my mistakes. I made a conscious choice half way through my time in this role that I needed to find it within me to change the way I was seeing my situation, seeing my team, and seeing the company overall.  When I made this shift, everything changed. Today, my role is still demanding and comes with way more challenges than I'd like, but I know that I can manage anything that comes my way because I generate the feeling of harmony within me which shows up in the team dynamics. 

Changing you’re approach to feeling the harmony within takes time and practice. It doesn’t happen overnight.  I know because I have consciously worked to take this approach to my life in general.  It has created less stress, more peace and a general overall feeling of happiness.  It’s still a work in progress and I think it will always be.  Each new challenge brings a different set of circumstances to manage.  Some days you’ll handle things well and other days are going to be rough.   I will leave you with this affirmation:

“I am in harmony"
