Rhythm is defined as a strong, regular and repeated pattern of movement or sound. It is repetitious and recurrent. Rhythm is the ordered recurrence of strong and weak elements in the flow of sound or speech.
There are two benefits to the rhythm.
Creates movement that is required for progression.
Fosters consistency that results in accountability and commitment.
Your rhythm vibrates just like an engine. You control your rhythm by the power of your thinking.
Thinking that provides you with clarity, courage, desire, and focus. Thinking that aids you in developing habits that result in achievement and success.
What is that humming?
Within you, there is a humming that is your mind constantly in motion because it is filled with your thoughts and beliefs. Thoughts and beliefs that you must keep grounded in positive principles. The power of your positive thoughts will move you to take action. Actions that force you to utilize your potential, tapping into your gifts and talents.
Your rhythm is a hum that creates harmony, coherency, and tranquillity.
What is the purpose of harmony?
Harmony enables you to have calm during storms and struggles. You use the calm to keep you level and at peace so that you can withstand and endure. There will be times of uncertainty; however, this is when you lean into your harmony so that you can be level-headed to make informed decisions.
What is the purpose of coherency?
Coherency provides clarity and consistency. You have clarity in your purpose. You are clear on where you are going. Your purpose and vision are clear. When you are clear, you have focus. Focus to identify the what’s and how’s. The steps and actions that you need to take.
What is the purpose of tranquillity?
Your mind and spirit are free from agitation and turmoil. You are stable and steady in your thoughts and actions. Distractions gain no ground in your plans and strategies. You know that you have the power, not others and things. You do not allow negativity and doubt to take root in your thoughts taking you on a detour.
Rhythm rises and falls in intensity.
There will be times when your rhythm will be strong and weak. In the weak periods, take time to add value to yourself and refuel. Do not view low periods as times to be discouraged instead view these are times where you concentrate on maintenance and upkeep. Just like an engine, your rhythm requires maintenance to be kept in good condition. During the weak periods, increase your knowledge and develop your skills. Possibly sign up for training, or develop a new skill; however, do not stop moving forward. As you continue to add value to yourself, you will make adjustments to the intensity of your rhythm. Your intensity will again be strong. Weak periods are only temporary to give you time to pause, reflect, evaluate and recharge.
Your goal is to create a rhythm that is durable and resilient. A rhythm with power and intensity that will move you forward.
