I have to get this off my chest…
It drives me crazy when people are afraid to be fully themselves. When they don’t trust their Soul’s nudges and hold back out of fear. When they don’t trust life loves them, and they give excuses instead of following their joy.
Why does it bother me so much?
One: Because life is meant to be enjoyed, and I can see they’re holding themselves back from everything they want.
Two: I KNOW if they trusted themself, they’d get where they want to go faster than they realize.
Three: Because that used to be me (and still is at times, which drives me crazy, too) — except now I know there’s a better, easier way and have the skills and know-how to recalibrate and get back on track.
But I get it. I used to be afraid to go after my dreams, too.
I thought I had to wait for the right person or the perfect time or that I needed to learn more skills.
Turns out, I needed to realize I was in the driver’s seat of my life. (And so are you.)
*I* had the key.
*I* could turn on the ignition.
*I* could set the GPS.
And it was my foot on the peddle — except I’d been pressing the brake instead of the gas.
For years, I sat in the passenger seat (because that’s where I chose to sit). I was comfy and happy there. I accompanied the driver, relaxed, looked around, and enjoyed the view. I was also in charge of the snacks.
Being a passenger through life can be fun…until it isn’t.
Until you want more.
Until you feel stifled and small.
Until somewhere deep inside, you have a knowing ache there’s more to life and more out there for you.
Yet, even though you know you want more, it’s scary.
You want to drive, but being the one in charge feels unfamiliar and uncomfortable.
You want to choose the route but realize you’ve forgotten where you wanted to go and worry you’ll get lost trying to find your way, or you want to get there fast, but not too fast, because what if you crash along the way?
If you feel there’s more to life, know you have more to offer, and long to feel whole, strong, and fully YOU, you’re ready for the driver’s seat.
Here’s what I know for sure:
When you’re in the driver’s seat of your life, you’re unstoppable.
The route from where you are to where you want to go becomes smooth, scenic, exciting, and full of delightful surprises. And the destination is always worth any risk you may feel right now because you’ll end up beyond where you can imagine.
By the way, the risk feels less risky the more you practice saying Yes to your heart and Soul because you’ve learned what to expect and how to navigate any curves and bumps along the way.
But, like when you first learned to drive, you need an instructor. Someone who can ease your fears because they’ve done this before. They know the pitfalls and dead ends. They know how to create good and lasting habits, so your journey is a joy, and how you get from one point to the next becomes second nature.
You need a guide who can help you be ALL you are and live life wholeheartedly.
Because when you believe in yourself, you’re free to be YOU. Free of your own limitations — fully, wholly, and completely you, without holding back — creating your life exactly as you want, with the courage to follow your joy, and live life your way.
It’s your time, and it’s your turn.
