Ebbs and Flows

So In that moment, I realized I turned a corner. I could see the path forward and the Sun was shining. I held onto that feeling. I'll never forget it.

​I believe my "work" comes from a place of integrity, I know this as true, without question, without hesitation. My satisfaction lies in the positive impact I have on the lives of others, one-to-one, in a meaningful way. Aspects include positive relationships, Deep meaningful connections, and tangible results at the practical level, whether that is through accountability coaching, vision mapping, mindset shifts (getting out of your own way), or helping with the workload to deliver a product. They're pieces of the puzzle I engage with as I help my clients on their journeys authentically, and as they grow, I grow alongside them. An ultimate synergy..

To me it's amazing to play a support role where I don't have to be the main character. I don't see myself as the Hero on the hero's journey, but as the guide while the client takes on the Hero's Role. I never wanted the spotlight, so it's been a journey to discover the right niche, space where I can simply be myself, while providing value to others in a way that feels natural, one that allows me to work behind the scenes while making an impact on the lives of others.

I often remind myself, that if I can help even one person take even one step closer to actualizing their vision, I'll have accomplished my mission.

For example, I experienced my first tangible results only recently. It manifested in the form of attracting exactly the right people seeking my support. I found satisfaction with the realization that "yes, I can achieve results on this path." It was a game-changer for me. Confirmation. I had been seeking a solution to this puzzle for a very long time, trying one thing - then another, never quite getting what I needed, It never quite felt right. Truth is, it didn’t come from a truly authentic place, I was trying to be someone I was not and it never quite felt right.

So In that moment, I realized I turned a corner. I could see the path forward and the Sun was shining. I held onto that feeling. I'll never forget it. I found hope for my future as a new path was revealed before me. The experience showed me I was onto something and that I should keep going. It gave me the confidence to believe wholeheartedly in the mission before me.

I am embracing the current trajectory while observing the world around me, watching for doorways of opportunity and opening them where they're presented.

I focus on myself, developing my skills, knowledge, and understanding, and sharing my wisdom from it. The sharing allows me to transmute the knowledge into deeper understanding, which is wisdom. I believe that if I walk this path, the desired outcome will appear effortlessly. Now, that's not to say there isn't some element of work involved. I have a system for it, rinse and repeat.

I don't spend my days stressing about working harder, in my mind, it shouldn't be necessary. Surely if i were to work 18 hours a day solely on my business to the exclusion of all else, I'd see more progress, but at what cost? I believe there's a balance to all things. I am making an effort to show up every day in the way that I can, without worrying about what I might have missed had I worked harder. When I think of the word business, I see busy-ness. Is my business to keep me busy? No! It is a vehicle to deliver a sense of purpose and giving energy to it is my commitment to purpose.

I'm sure there's an aversion to it somewhere in my psyche. I trust that it will be revealed in time. It will teach me the lesson I need to learn when it's time to learn it. My practice is more about allowing life to flow its natural course here. Not building dams to redirect the current, but about navigating the flow. Imagine life is a river, we flow with its current, maybe navigating the eddies and flows, but not swimming against it, that would just be wasted energy. So should I embrace this further? what's to embrace? What if I'm already holding on too tightly? What if to embrace it further, I need to let it go? Imagine this business as a ship tied to the banks of the river, to let loose the chain tied to the dock, and allow it to float on happily downstream, guiding its direction but not fighting the current. Truth is, the idea is an extension of me, and it comes from a genuine place, so simply through my own being, I am embracing this more than ever. My role is simply to guide the vessel downstream, avoiding the eddies while riding the swiftest currents.

TL:DR

- Work and purpose are driven by authentic integrity and meaningful one-to-one connections
- Success comes from embracing the role of guide rather than seeking the spotlight
- Focus on personal development and wisdom-sharing from a place of fulfillment rather than constant busy-ness
- Business approach emphasizes natural flow and balance over forced progress
- Growth comes through allowing experiences to unfold naturally while maintaining direction

Key Questions

- How does your work align with your core values and create meaningful connections?
- In what ways are you serving as a guide rather than seeking to be the center of attention?
- How are you balancing personal growth with sharing your wisdom and experiences?
- Are you allowing your business to flow naturally or forcing progress?
- How can you maintain direction while letting experiences unfold organically?
