it's not about what we want
but about who we are
as I grow my project (for months now ;)
I dig deep inside and go slowly
to be as true and honest as possible
and because I face some fears as well
fear of not being enough
fear of not using the right words
fear of not being understood
fear of..
as I dive into this journey.. I get to know myself more and more
and you might ask: "so, what did you learn so far?"
well, here some insight about my journey of "making a vision happen"
allow yourself to go your way, your rhythm, your style
don't take to much inputs from outside, from advice, from books, even from friends and family. only you know. pause, listen, turn off the noise.
dare to be imperfect. this goes along with doing. I can't say it enough, do do do. your mind is the one that traps you inside. action is liberating and you can always adapt. as long as you stay in your mind, no change is possible.
listen inside and be courageous. so far, this has been the hardest for me.
"it's not about what I want, but about who I am".
And, oh boy, I want to do so many things.. and then I listen.. and deep inside is this voice. At first, my ego shut it down. So, I kept going, moving, pushing.
Until, finally, I take the courage to go there. To really listen and act accordingly.
Concretely, it means letting go of things I have been working hard to reach, of stuff I thought (mind) I wanted.. but the little voice said it's not the right way, not the right moment. It's really hard (ego) to go through this and to let go, but I know it's right because I can feel it in my mind, body and heart.
Finally, share and connect with the right people. I mean, find a few little "partners-in-crime" that you trust and that believe in you and your vision. This has been a game changer for me. Choose them well and care about them because they can take you a long way. Even more, if you work alone on a project. When your air is gone, they are the ones that will put the oxygen mask on your face ;)
So here's for you:
What's something you think you want (mind) but deeply know it's not you (heart)? What's frightening you in letting that thing go?
The more we know ourselves, the more we can allow ourselves to be.
To me, moving to the centre is learning to let go.
It's a frightening process but also very liberating.
Getting naked, pulling off the layers, peeling the onion ;)
I am sure that the core is a place of endless power and energy. and I will continue my journey towards it. Will you too ?
go. do. be. and happy day, sweet souls
