Most of us have two lives. The life we live, and the unlived life within us. Between the two stands Resistance. ~ Steven Pressfield
What part of your life has a big “KEEP OUT!” sign attached? Your brain – not willing to take in new thoughts, ideas or opinions? Your body – not willing to embrace, shake a hand or open up to physical connection? Your heart – not willing to share desires, fears, or emotions?
If you’re feeling stuck, it might be worth identifying where your resistance lives. Flip the KEEP OUT sign to OPEN and figure out how to let people in. When we let go of control – if even a bit – we will be rewarded with new teachers, opportunities, and blessings galore!
It’s normal to resist something that causes pain and discomfort. Our survival depends on it. But are we really LIVING or simply surviving? Allow yourself to be vulnerable enough to learn something new, make a new friend, or share an emotion. You’ll find out, rather quickly, that you are not alone. No need to resist any more.
Make it a strong day!
