I've been thinking a lot about this topic lately.
What I know...today is:
Our motivation, inspiration, creativity, energy, resourcefulness, focus...etc...is DIRECTLY tied to our "Level of Acceptability". LOA
When our "level" is not being met...all these things kick in.
Think about these areas in our lives where our LOA drives us:
1 - Home Organization/Clutter - (notice what happens when company calls and they are 5 minutes out)
2 - Health/Weight/Looks (size of clothes..or what the scale says)
3 - Budget/Money (how much many you earn/save/spend)
4 - Recognition - Prestige (Do you always win? Are you driven to be the best?)
5 - Communication (Do you talk? do you hide out? Do you expect people in your life to talk or not?)
6 - Intimacy (How often?)
7 - Skills/Talents (if you build, play tennis, sing, play an instrument, bake, write, scrapbook, shoot photography, paint, fix cars...)
And this list can go on and on...
Here's an example in my life:
I am a choir/theater director (or I have been for most of my life). My LOA in this department is VERY high. So when I am rehearsing, I hold my performers to a very high level. Until my LOA is met, they don't go home.
But it's not just about working people to death...it's about motivating them to do their best; It pulls on my ability to make it fun so people WANT to give me what I want. I discover ways (resourcefulness) to help them know how to do things better...so I get what I want to satisfy my LOA.
EVERY AREA OF OUR LIVES IS DICTATED BY OUR LEVEL OF ACCEPTABILITY!
I would like to hear from you about specifics in your life regarding YOUR
Level of Acceptability.
Wanna share?
Nite,
Kim
