When we’re Birthing something New
ARE YOU WILLING?
There's something I've been working on over the last couple years.
Something that I both want desperately to exist the world, AND want to emerge as gently and naturally as possible.
And so she's taking her time.
There are 3 questions that keep coming up whenever I get impatient:
(1) ARE YOU WILLING FOR THIS TO TAKE TIME?
Oh the number of self-imposed deadlines that have come and gone! Oh how I've beaten myself up for it! But what's the rush, really?
Especially when it's something that matters deeply, that feels bigger than you, that you're prepared to steward for the long-haul?
(2) ARE YOU WILLING FOR THIS TO BE GENTLE?
It feels SO counter-intuitive at times, but I'm (un)learning that it's not about pushing as hard as I can, but letting go as much as I can. To unclench those overthinking, over-doing parts of me and let things be more easeful.
(3) ARE YOU WILLING FOR THIS TO JUST BE THE BEGINNING?
That's the trick - to give things time to gestate naturally, while also letting it exist in its fledgling form. Don't let perfection keep your creations forever unborn. Know that they must live and breathe outside of you to really come into their own.
Whatever it is that you're birthing, I hope this helps you go a little gentler, and be a little braver.
