Who’s in charge here?

Posted on May 27th, 2010 by Shawn in Joyous Living

After years and years of moving through life fairly successfully, at least in the grand scheme of things, I’ve come to a place where the status quo will no longer do.  I don’t have much to complain about, even though I do gripe quite a bit.  But in my mid-fifties, I just know that continuing to live this way isn’t going to be particularly satisfying in the long run.   There are too many things I haven’t done because I was afraid or doubted myself too much to take the leap.   I’ve let fear and doubt be in the driver’s seat of my vehicle (my life) for much too long!   In childhood, they probably kept me safe, but today they’ve become more like shackles.

Now is not the time to play small; now is the time to celebrate our gifts and honor them by using them more fully. Now is the time to determine WHO is going to be in charge of directing our lives. Now is the time to heal the hurting parts of ourselves so that we can move more confidently into the roles we are meant to play.

On Thursday, June 3rd, I’ll be having a call about Healing our Hearts, focusing on business, but applicable to any hurting heart. There’s more information here:
