Expanding Your Capacity - Expanding Your World
I’ve been focusing a lot lately on the idea of expanding capacity…the capacity to do more of what we love, bring forward more of who we are, and the capacity to live with increased joy and grace.
One way to expand capacity seems to be to surround myself with new opportunities, new circumstances and even new information.
I’ve been browsing through books I haven’t known about before, DVDs I haven’t seen or heard of, and even new blogs I haven’t visited. The books I found at a used bookstore and the DVDs from a new catalog I discovered. As for blogs, I found 259 new ones in the batch of 260 that Liz Strauss brilliantly showcased at her annual Blog-To Show this past weekend (I also expanded my capacity for trying new bloggy things and put my own blog in the show:) Pop on over to discover some new blogs that will help you expand your capacity!
At first glance, the notion of expanding capacity might seem to be the antithesis of living a simpler life…I don’t see it that way. Expanding capacity doesn’t inherently mean “get and do more stuff”…it could mean expanding our capacity to live more joyfully, simply, and authentically. I like thinking of it that way.
How about you? What would it mean for you to expand your capacity? What might be possible?

What a lovely thought! Expanding capacity for me means taking more risks, speaking my truth, following my bliss, and reaching out to others. You have always been a leader and mentor for me so, dear friend, just knowing you expands my capacity!
Hi Eileen!
I love your ideas of what expanding capacity means to you. I think I’ll borrow some of them (like following my bliss) and expand my own capacity further this week:) May you expand your capacity to receive as much as you give, Eileen…your presence on the blog and in my life mean oodles:) E.
I love those ideas! I want to focus on expanding my capacity for bliss, and taking risks, too.
Lately, for me, “expanding my capacity” has meant realizing that I’m capable of doing more with my skills than I thought I could. It’s almost been overwhelming at times…but I’m finding that I can grow to meet the challenge.
Happy Friday, Dear “Mousewords”!
Looking forward to seeing what you manifest — with your increased capacity of realizing your skills can take you to new terrain, I’m sure we’ll hear of all kinds of new and juicy projects from you! As one of my favorite teachers is fond of saying:
