Radiance As Your Beacon

As I am writing this Sunshine Inbox, my family just went through a bereavement in the family.

My 102-year-old grandma moved onwards beautifully and peacefully into Buddha light.

During her wake, the family exchanged many stories about her.

One thing was clear.

She was like a beacon – radiating warmth, optimism, positivity, hope and sunshine to everyone she meets.

Even in her latter years, whenever she was hospitalised, the doctors and nurses adore her. She radiated sweetness and gratitude.

I believe this beautiful energy that she radiates out is a beautiful beacon that in turn, attracts goodness into her life.

If you were to imagine yourself as a beacon, what will you be radiating out?

That’s a question that I regularly ask myself.

When I am in a bad mood or been triggered by others, I am acutely conscious that I am radiating out non-useful energy. If I am unable to change my emotional state quick enough, I will choose to isolate myself if possible.

Energy amplifies quickly.

I very much prefer to be amplifying goodness, compassion, joy and sunshine.

What about you? Are you aware about the type of energy that you are radiating out?

Radiating You

Reflection

  • Have you met someone recently who radiated positive energy?
  • What does it feel like?
  • If you were to imagine yourself as a beacon, what will you be radiating out?

Action

Whether we like it or not, are aware of it or not, our personal brand and reputation exists. Even if it’s silent and non-articulated, branding is an aspect that we can be aware of, intentionally build and leverage. Our personal branding needs to be carried across all levels. Translating it into our behaviour and actions towards others makes the branding congruent. The stronger, more trust-inducing and credible your personal brand is, the deeper your influence would be. Each day, you are radiating your personal brand to the people that you meet.

Practice for the Week

For this week, consciously radiate the energy that you’ve chosen for refection question 3 especially to your loved ones. Observe the impact that it has on them.
