I watched a special on the Beatles last night…
‘Eight Days a Week – The Touring Years’ – a film by Ron Howard…
The biggest takeaway I took from it was the fact that without the right people around them, even the Beatles wouldn’t have reached the heights of success they achieved if they’d tried to do it all on their own…
Someone asked me at yoga this week how it was that my balance was so good…Apparently, if you can stand on one leg for longer than 30 seconds after the age of 45 you’re doing really well…I’m 47 and I’ll stand on one leg for as long as you like…
It always amazes me when I see young people…or anyone, for that matter…struggling with their balance and they just laugh it off and say, ‘Oh, my balance is REALLY bad!’
Well, of course it is…if that’s what you keep telling yourself…
It BAFFLES me as to why people don’t think it’s important…
Good balance IS important AND you can improve your balance…
You’ve been working on your mindset trying to create this shift but what does it actually feel like?
What exactly are you looking for? You’ll know when you’ve had The Shift…
Because what you were struggling with is GONE…
It’s like the weight has just been lifted off your shoulders…
Everything just is and there’s no effort whatsoever to maintain it…
I’m writing this one for myself today…
I feel like things have been taking their toll…Like I’m being dragged down into a big, black hole and everything’s being turned upside down…
Riding out the emotional storm takes a lot of courage…
To take the bull by the horns and not fall into an emotional heap…
To not revert back to the old way of thinking…
But to find strength in getting back to the moment and KNOWING that everything is as it should be…
Or are you trying to do what you think you need to do to keep up with everyone else?
That includes the people who you admire AND the ones who are holding you back…
When you get to the crux of the matter…
WHO ARE YOU REALLY?
It’s the backseat driver of your life…
Not completely in the driver’s seat but it’s certainly been given the leading role of reading the maps and quitely giving directions…
All from behind the scenes…
It’s garnishing its resources by filing away your experiences and the beliefs that others have led you to believe throughout your life…
Quietly and effectively…
Your subconscious is subtly screwing with your life…
