It’s been like peeling back the curtain on the hidden and invisible. Revelations and uncovering truths…
- Seeing the belief systems we build for ourselves and living constrained to limiting beliefs.
- What others say about us, their judgements and perceptions and how that affects what we think about ourselves.
- Talent is just a measurement for the rate of speed of acquiring a skill.
- Fear is the invisible man with the subtle, powerful influencing voice.
- Everyone has a talent and gift to share with the world, it is their responsibility to bring it to fruition so it can be enjoyed and experienced.
- Results and expectations are desires that steal from the joy and energy of being present and in the moment – and also the intention and focus required to just “do the work”.
The outward journey of learning to write has been an inward journey of knowing myself better, having a little better understanding of who I am and seeing with more clarity of the person in the mirror – emotionally, physically, spiritually, psychologically, socially. It has also better equipped me to have more compassion, grace and forgiveness with myself and consequently others.
I believe this can be or should be true for anyone that has a “mountain” in front of them, whatever that “mountain” might be.
Another truth I learned… “Everyone has a story to tell”.
A journey that seems daunting, impossible and beyond themselves, everyone has a story to tell, a story that tells of overcoming their greatest fears with courage, grace and compassion to come out the other side enriched, enlightened, enabled.
The greatest thing I found for myself, my voice, what I want to say, to share and connect with others… the stories I’m compelled to write and want to tell, stories between the conflict of fear and love, heroes that face their greatest fears to become their greatest self, to bring a new understanding of grace, awareness and compassion.
