Are You Ready to be Transformed?
When we are willing to be transformed, we stop wasting time theorizing, projecting, denying, or avoiding our own ego resistance. Richard Rohr
Think about your response to others when you are scared about doing a new thing, think about the response when someone who believes in you is pushing you towards an action they believe will get you closer to your dreams.
Think of your own self talk when having to make a choice of a new job, a new relationship, reaching towards your goals - all things without a known income from the onset.
We humans can justify anything we want or don't want to do, we can come up with reasons, excuses, rationales for doing or not doing something. When there is risk and unknown, we get apprehensive. we feel out of control. We just want to know and be reassured.
When we find ourselves doing this- we are not ready for the transformation.The lesson may be to trust yourself, trust your intuition, have faith in yourself and your dreams.
Not being ready is ok.It gives us time to go back and get ready, get prepared. Notice the resistance, notice the justification, notice the ego jumping out. It gives us time to build our own trust and self belief.
Get curious about why you are not ready, about your reasons for making up these stories. Get surious about why your trust and belief in self is waning.
The more you do that, it reflects to you the path, the fear, and it gets easier.
Many times we are in our own way. Change gets us uneasy. Better the thing we know , than the uncertain.
I can tell you, no matter what, its all lessons
Peace
