80% of success is simply showing up
True story:
I met a lady recently who
used to attend my in-depth yoga classes
as a student in 900hrs TTC
in The Yoga Institute
Last year
in Feb 2018, in one of my classes
I had exhorted the class
“Can you give yourself 1 min of happiness every day?
Is that not your right to be happy wilfully at least for 1 min every day”
Everyone in the class said yes
“Here’s what you need to do
Sit in Sukhasana (happy pose) for 1 min every day
Can you do that?”
I asked
Everyone said yes
Months later as I used to check
no one had continued
till recently when this lady reminded me of the class
and said
“It was difficult for me to sit in Sukhasana
even for 1 min but I persisted
days, months
everyday
Today one year later
I can sit anywhere for 15 mins
and be happy”
What an amazing transformation!
All because of her willingness
to show up
everyday
for herself
Not to win some medal or
get validated externally
She showed up for herself
for her well being
by just 1 min every day
