I'm challenging myself to get back to this. I need to save myself and looking for the magic every day again just might be the answer. I'm going to commit to 100 days of sticking to this to see what happens.
I teach English as a Second Language class every Wednesday. Usually at the end of the work day on Wednesdays I'm kind of dreading class that goes form 7 - 9. I'm just tired and want to go home. But every Wednesday at 9:00 I leave so happy and energized. Tonight was no exception. The people I teach with energize me, the students energize me, when they learn something it energizes, when they have more confidence it energizes me and when they call me "teacher" it really energizes me and makes me feel happy. When you feel this way after a long day at work you know you are "in the flow" as Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi calls it. This is pure magic - to connect with your inner purpose and to feel that energy ignite! Today and every Wednesday I experience this and know that for two hours every week I'm "on purpose!"
