Leap, let who you are becoming catch you.
We get 366 days this year.
What are you going to do with your extra day?
What a gift the universe has provided us, February 29.
I have thought a lot about this. I have created “my perfect day.” And I’ve treated it like a day spent by myself, but in reality I’d actually love an extra day with my husband and children.
- Sleep in (no alarm clock)
- 2 cups of coffee on a balcony/deck/poolside somewhere sunny and still
- Write
- 45-minute meditation on my Unplug App (I do the short ones all the time, but 45 min feels so indulgent!)
- Write while room service brunch is delivered
- Read an inspirational book
- Nap
- Listen to every episode of the ONBEING podcast again
- Write
- Takeout Chinese food in my pajamas while watching my favorite movie: Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
- Extra Hot Bubble Bath with a glass (or two ) of my favorite wine
- Sleep in a giant king-sized bed and my cozy pajamas
What if you had a secret day, no one could take it from you, not one single minute. What would you do? How would you spend it?
I’ve decided, why save all of this for one day? I’m going to live my year spreading it out. Doing some of this each day/week to spread the joy throughout the year. I’m going to make time in my daily life for things I crave if I just had “more time”.
Looking at my dream list of activties, I can fit some of this into my life right now, and what a gift that truly is!
Happy Leap Day!
Enjoy this extra time on Planet Earth! How are you spending it?
