The last two trips to the doctor’s office, my blood pressure maintains a healthy level. It’s the first time in years that it hasn’t been elevated. As I read over my journals and morning pages from 2023, which is part of my Year In Review Protocol, one theme that is arriving is a reawakening of my spiritual life. On each page there is evidence of God and faith. Additionally, there’s the fight against smoking and more. From what I can tell, smoking cessation is likely the cause of the lower blood pressure, but I’m also seeing the importance of a spiritual innerscape .
I read somewhere this week that if you want to repair the outside, you have to fix what is inside and what is core. This feels true in almost every facet of life.
If organizations want to fix their reputation, work on the inside and internal matters first before launching a PR campaign. Who knows, it may not be necessary to launch the campaign. If the internal change is real, felt and witnessed, reputation will tell the story for you.
