Choose to live boldly right now—dance with uncertainty and leap beyond what no longer serves you.
As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Your Moment to Reflect and Shed Our Anchors
Full moons are always wonderful times to get clear on what we need to release. This week’s supermoon is perfect for taking a long look at what no longer serves us (maybe it never did?) and deciding what we want to heal.
We can chain our anchors of choice to our vessels out of a desire to not stand out, live too large, lose love/favor, or go against the thinking of those in our circle.
The minute we dropped that weight onto the ocean floor, though, we knew we had deceived our true selves.
A big, fat lie in exchange for perceived safety.
A choice that erodes our sense of possibility, our imagination, our access to our creativity. Preventing ourselves from making the choice to live boldly.
Someone asked me this week how it is that we move forward and make bold decisions and plans during times of uncertainty.
Uncertainty is a constant. It’s never not present, so it’s best we befriend it. It doesn’t visit one person and not the next. It doesn’t arrive in certain seasons or cycles.
It’s a force of Nature.
Choose to Live Boldly
Uncertainty is our perfect, wise elder. She has lessons for us. She will reveal what we believe to be true that just ain’t so. Let’s ask her.
In order to hear her wisdom, though, we need to clear the decks.
What needs to go? What do we need to heal in order to step into the version of us that is required for where we want to go, to live boldly?
Spend some time with these questions and your journal today. Write it all down.
Pull the anchor out of the depths.
Put yourself in reach of the wind.
