So many times I have heard people share the story of the frog and his environment! If you put a frog in cold water and slowly turn the heat up then the frog doesn’t acknowledge or realise that the temperature of the water is changing and therefore eventually the water begins to boil and the frog dies! Second option, bring the water to the boil first of all and then place the frog into the boiling water, the frog immediately jumps out of the water as it is able to acknowledge the temperate of the water and therefore jump for his life! Please do not test this experiment out with a frog, instead I would ask you to trust me that this is correct, I’m not going to tell you how I know that it is true!

Think about an environment that you spend lots of time in! It can be an environment that you love to spend time in you’re an environment that you find challenging! For the frog these two environments were both challenging, one of the environments he knew was a challenge and therefore jumped out and one environment he didn’t realise was a challenge and therefore died! Which frog are you?

Think back 10 years ago, what environments did you spend most of your time in back then? Was it the same environments as it is now 10 years later! Think about your relationships environments or job environments over the past 10 years!

I have been very blessed in the last 10 years to be exposed and connect to many, many, many different environments, living in 4 different countries and experiencing different cultures and being exposed to many different vales and beliefs! This has certainly impacted me, in a way that it has enabled to stop and look at my environments and my thoughts along my journey. Personally in the past, when I have been in an environment it has been difficult to measure the temperature whereas now I know the what environments I love to be surrounded by both for short and long periods of time! I love red hot water for a bath for a short period of time……lol!

Let me give you a personal example 10 years ago I dated a guy for about 18 months, during this time he cheated on me a number of times, close to double figures I would estimate! I was aware that he was cheating and I made excuses every time to myself and the people around me, I told myself that there was a reason why it happened and that it was ok and he had bought me a gift to say sorry so that made it ok (I am laughing my head off just writing this as it really doesn’t sound like me now…..lol!!)! Back then I wasn’t aware of the temperature of my water or at what temperature I wanted my relationship water to be at! Now looking back if I dated someone who cheated then just like the frog in the boiling water I would be jumping out immediately as I know myself and I know my own vales and beliefs, along with loving and valuing myself!

I ask you to check the temperature of the water that you are living in on a regular basis! Do you know what temperature that you are currently living in? What temperature is your survival mode? What is the temperature of your dreams?

With love, magic & adventure
