This month, we’re discussing Creative Strength, but we’ve been moving through Survival.
This week? Grace for meeting yourself where you are. Beginning Boldly. Continuing Courageously.
Grace
Is a concept I struggled with for years, and not because I wasn’t shown it.
I struggle most when and because I fail to give grace to myself. I have a shirt that says “Grace Wins,” but I should really put it on my mirror.
Maybe I will.
The point is, we all need it, even me, and sometimes I scrape the bottom of the barrel before I offer it to myself.
So don’t be like me. Maybe just this once.
Where do you want to be?
I got more advice this week. Speak into existence what you want. Act to create the feeling.
So…what are you saying to yourself? What are you saying out loud?
Does it sound like this:
- I’m TOO OLD [TOO YOUNG is just as intimidating].
- It’s TOO LATE.
- I’m NOT READY.
How about replacing that idea with one that is true? Also empowering.
- I’m JUST GETTING STARTED…
- It’s a FRESH START/NEW BEGINNING/2ND (3rd/umpteenth) CHANCE…
- I AM…fill in the blank. I like: Creative. Loved. Chosen. Artistic. Imaginative. Magical. [You don’t even have to believe it now, but writing it in the present tense will help you begin to believe it; I promise.]
HOW? & WHO?
If you can’t believe you’re ready, can you pick one step that will get you closer to being ready? If you can’t believe you’re just the right age, can you find someone older or someone who started later? I bet you can. Don’t believe the lies.
Start this week. Start again. Give Grace. Act As If.
If you need some help, I’m here.
