Room to Maneuver

We can make things so hard on ourselves sometimes.  


We think of all the ways something can go wrong.

We think we have to stay one step ahead of the game.

We think we have to have it all figured out - what our goals should be, the strategies to develop and the actions to take.

We think we have to be on constant alert or we’ll miss something important.

We think we have to slay dragons - ours or another’s.

We think we have to be perfect - in perfect alignment or in perfect character.

What if we could back off and give ourselves room to maneuver in this world?

What if we know we’ll receive information and insights when we need them?

What if the right circumstances for our life come in when it’s the right time?

What if the dragons are really only pivot points?

What if perfection is too limiting for us? 


What if our job this time around is to free ourselves?
