Hello brave ones,
This is a post from ages ago. Three years to be exact but it has been a topic of constant conversation these days.
When do you take the leap to change?
I like the idea of permission, and I LOVE the concept of Grace.
So today, if you’re contemplating listening to your gut. Or you’ve already taken the leap and you feel like you’re in free-fall—maybe this will help.
That’s always my wish.
Carry on,
xox
Both feet have to leave the ground to leap.
Ohhhhhh Shiiiiiiit!
…and therein lies the rub.
When am I ready to leap you ask? Uh, just this side of NEVER!
We seldom feel like we’re ready….it just isn’t the right time…not yet.
But what the hell are we waiting for?
An illness?
Divorce?
The empty nest?
More diplomas?
Losing a job?
More zeros in our bank account (Ahhh, now I’m getting warmer) but how many are enough?
How about PERMISSION?
The WORD from God-on-high that all systems are go, and you’re ready for launch.
That’s what I want!
That’s what we all want. Right?
But you know what you guys? We’ve got that. We have our internal guidance, our intuition, our gut, to let us know when we’re getting close.
We’ve all been there. You get that restless feeling.
You start asking life WAY too many questions.
You feel as if you can’t continue to do that thing you’ve been doing for one. more. minute.
That to me, signals one foot off the ground.
Then I have to suck up every ounce of courage to trust those signals, and
Lift. The. Other. Foot.
Permission is Grace’s secret weapon.
If you give enough value to the signs; the synchronicity, that jumpy little feeling in your belly, and you turn away from the fear and doubt and really show up for yourself; you grant Permission.
Permission’s bodyguards, Faith and Courage, then clear the path for Grace to enter.
Then you know what Grace does?
She lends you her hand and helps you balance…
so you can lift your other foot to leap.
