A Few Steps Down the Road
"I've learned that fear limits you and your vision. It serves as blinders to what may be just a few steps down the road for you. The journey is valuable, but believing in your talents, your abilities, and your self-worth can empower you to walk down an even brighter path. transforming fear into freedom- how great is that"- Soledad O'Brian
How true!
We tend to see our obstacles as 100 foot tall walls. Their size inflated by our belief. Even when the obstacle in reality could be one foot tall we inflate it.
Soledad gives us the answer in the words "just a few steps down the road for you." By believing that we are only a few steps away from overcoming might be enough of a belief to overcome it.
I practice yoga several times a week. It is a great way to relax and improve my flexibility. But no matter how much I practice certain poses are difficult. One in particular requires me to perform a "bind". My arms are just not that long. BUT I keep twisting myself enough that now I can touch my fingertips.
As Soledad advises I am a few more steps to conquering that pose.
Today's question is:
"Do you make the effort towards those few steps?"
