Anyone or anything that pulls your energy away from your goals is similar to a dead leaf in a plant as mentioned in my earlier post. It seems the leaf is important because it attached to the plant, but it takes away from the potential of the plants beauty and growth. So what do we do? We must clip, trim those people or events, behaviors or actions away. When? Now or the next time they suck up your time or energy. Note when you prune it is not gradual, it is a clear separation. This is difficult for people because they don’t have compassion for themselves. Again using the house plant, growth comes when the plant is feed properly and exposed to sun and quality air.
So, I guess I can ask the question, what are you exposed to? Do you get the proper nourishment to feed your body and mind. If you are tired and sluggish all the time this is similar to the browning of the leaves on our plant. You gotta prune, change the way you eat, read more often, start journaling or writing down ideas that come to mind. Stay out of toxic environments and run from toxic people.
The thing about pruning is that you always have to be taking self-inventory, assessing and re-assessing yourselves and your goals. It may take time to do some more pruning, but future beautiful growth will be the result of constant pruning.
