One of the biggest obstacles that I’ve seen to a successful client’s greatness is their comfort level.
Especially when you’ve achieved a lot, especially when you’ve had several significant wins under your belt, especially when you’ve been able to grow, scale, accomplish goals of impressive heights - there is a height, an altitude that is comfortable.
We wanted not to do that. Right, Icarus?
So we coast at an altitude that suits us - nice bottles of wine, nice home, nice life - no real NEED for change.
Except that it’s stirring in your soul begging to be unleashed.
Except for every day you’re going through the motions, you feel like a part of you slightly died or worse, dimmed.
Except that your purpose, that THING, that dream, that unreasonable, seemingly impossible thing that you don’t currently know how to do is tugging at your heart like a toddler pulling your hand “Faster, mommy, faster,” to get through the dang line and into Disneyland.
And every time you pull away, or pretend like it doesn’t matter, or make up an excuse, or say you “don’t know how,” your soul crumbles a little inside, because deep down...
You know.
You’ve always known.
That even if you don’t know HOW right now, you’ve always been able to figure it out in the past.
The struggle with most people once they reach a level of success is that it seems that there is a further drop to fall if they fail.
And so they build the balcony wall higher to protect them from ever looking over again.
They retreat into their nice home and their nice car and their nice life - that’s...fine.
Oh, god! There’s the ultimate f-word.
Because at least if it was fucked they would move hell and high water to fix it.
But fine.
That’s settling.
It’s mediocre. Average.
No matter how successful or not you perceive yourself to be...
No matter how many people praise you for all that you’ve accomplished in your life...
No matter how much money you’ve made...
Only you know if you’re settling for a life that is FINE.
Or if you’re living a life that’s f*ing fulfilling.
You know it every time your head hits that pillow at night.
You know it every time you say to that idea, “It’d be nice but, maybe later.”
You know it every time you DON’T do that thing that day that scares the pants off of you because it means going out on a limb, risking your ego, risking your reputation (your ego in disguise), daring greatly, and possibly failing.
You can try to pretend.
You May even be a freaking good chameleon, adapting to other people’s perceptions to survive.
Soul knows.
Every time.
And it’s your choice day in and day out if you choose to sit on the decaying throne of comfort until it deteriorated into such a painful seat that you MUST adapt.
Or if you choose now a throne of courage.
One that may not feel so comfortable to sit on at first.
One that may feel awkward and weird, like it doesn’t fit or you don’t belong on it yet.
Because you haven’t adapted on the inside yet enough to fit her- but the more you sit on her, the more she changes you.
But train yourself to sit on the throne of courage long enough toll one day, you will sit as you always have and realize, with ease, that the throne now fits the sovereign.
You have to shape yourself to fit her. Not the other way around.
Shape yourself.
Grow yourself.
Challenge yourself.
Remember, your reign is now.
