"A person who never made a mistake, never tried anything new."
~ Albert Einstein (*<-- a brilliant Pisces btw)
In other words...
Mistakes are ageless, colorless, genderless, classless, timeless and are mainly based on experience. If you make mistakes it doesn't have to mean you lack experience, but it most certainly indicates you are in the process of gaining it. That experience in real time can provide expansion beyond what a thousand sure answers wish they could provide. Being sure isn't a sign of current growth as much as a sign of prior growth and gained clarity...but again, that clarity comes from experiences like: how many times did you 'stick your toe in', or didn't, before seeing you were sure it was safe to jump? Sometimes you were on point, sometimes off base. But you ultimately HAD to jump to find out.
This week, I ask you to jump! For you. Because the aliveness in your eyes shows up when you jump. Your body gains new definition when you jump. Your mind runs off the script when you jump. Your soul rejoices and awaits your landing when you jump. For as much as you are SURE of, find areas where you are UNSURE and explore those whispers with wide-eyed curiosity when they call you and the void feels evident. You cant be afraid to fall, or else, you will. Go into the possibility of a fall with wonder and readied applause for it means you are making an effort and gathering some information to move forward with. Then when you soar, the fall is warmly integrated into your euphoria, because you embraced it. If it feels as if you are literally being pulled to jump then the effort may feel like a home you haven't lived in in some time, but remember that you showed up to LIVE.
Begin to understand failure as a prerequisite for success...like go ahead and get it wrong, so you can get it right! Why are you waiting on the inevitable? If you knew it all you'd be beyond bored here with the rest of us. And I get bored with the best of them, but thats just a call for me to acknowledge some new whispers, curiosities, falls and risings. Resist the idea that a fall has an irreversible effect on you and see if knowing you will recover, changes your tune.
Stay inspired good people!
Put yourself out there.
Take the time to be with the undiscovered YOU before it calls you out.
Embrace this seasons and the cycles.
