Life is wide, Limitless. There is no border, No Frontier – Bruce Lee
When you feel like a caged bird and living life, not to your meaning,
Remember that there is no border,
Therefore the cage that is stopping you from spreading your wings
Is a cage that you put there yourself.
Want to fly?
Remove the cage.
Life is limitless
Imitate the trees. Learn to lose in order to recover, and remember nothing stays the same for long’ – May Sarton
In the harshest winters, a tree will look dead, No leaves nothing… But after a harsh winter, that same tree will have the most gloriest spring…
You too will have harsh winters, will feel like you have lost everything… but in the time of struggle remember this is just a season in your life…
This too shall pass
and know that something beautiful is getting ready to spring, That beauty comes deep from within, deep down in your roots, it can’t be seen on the surface.
Don’t let the harsh times defeat you… ‘Nothing stays the same for long’
Almost anything will work if you unplug it for a few minutes… Including yourself – Anne Lammot
We can get overwhelmed, stressed and run down…
We can get stuck on projects for days, weeks or even years.
If your anything like me this makes you feel like a failure, that you should quit or that you’re not good enough…
Of course, these thoughts aren’t actually ‘Me’ or ‘You’ its the inner resistance talking but its loudest when we feel like this.
We’re like a weakened gazelle and the resistance sees its chance to strike.
The solution though is not to quit but unplug for a few minutes (or days) go for walks and get plenty of rest.
Solutions to your problems will emerge, Lost energy will be found and then resistance can be silenced (for a while).
Don’t quit… Unplug
How we spend our days is of course how we spend our lives – Anne Dillard.
Your reading this because you’ve logged onto social media I don’t know whether that it’s for the 1st time today during a quick break or its the 20th time in the space of 15 minutes and you’ve run out of things to read…
Hopefully, it’s the former not the latter.
If you spend your days killing time looking for an escape on reality then your life will resemble this and one day when you look back you will realise that your life was lived ‘killing time’
If you live out your days with meaning and passion your life will reflect meaning and passion, you will most likely have done something of meaning and eventually leave the world better than when you arrived.
Whatever you do today live it out how you want to live your life
A divided mind will fall (Part 2)
Sometimes you need to fall.
Sometimes you need to hit the bottom.
At the bottom, you can find the resources to spark that fire that fell through the cracks of the middle.
At the bottom, there is nowhere to go but up.
At the bottom, we learn the dangers of a divided mind
At the bottom, we learn that comfort is a disguise for scared and lazy and we know where there leads…
Sometimes we need to fall in order to rise
