I have been thinking a lot about this very thing and how it shows up in my life. I saw an image the other day that is helping to inspire me. While meditating on this subject I saw a huge grey mountain and I felt total panic- it was huge and insurmountable. I thought about how often I just race at things only to exhaust myself and then retreat. I thought how about I quit expecting to be able to conquer something this huge with sheer concentrated force but rather be alright with slowly chipping away at it? Maybe most of it can actually remain in the path if I can just chip a big enough hole to walk through- imperfect, not as impressive as total demolition but actually possible! I keep thinking about that image and I am going to truly try to give myself permission and the grace required to just chip away...as much as I can each day.
Do you know about the FB profile "Please Don't At me" If so, I love the info. If not, check it out :) I bet you will like it.
