think of a time when you were
up for anything, when all the
world’s doors were wide open
for you. Go back to that door,
find your strength, and kick that
bitch down! Gain all the clarity
and self-realization that you can
now. It makes everything else in
your life so much easier.
SWALLOWING YOUR OWN
MEDICINE
It’s never an easy thing when
someone tells you that you are
failing; especially when you feel
that they have failed you. It’s
certainly not easy accepting
responsibility when you didn’t
think any was due. What’s so
wonderful about being open to
receiving clarity on your life is
that those pills of self-actualiza-
tion go down so much smoother.
Sure you might gag a little, but
that’s only because you know
how truly fucken awesome you
are.
It wasn’t easy taking in that my
husband might have been going
through similar things to my cli-
ents. I try to keep my mentoring
life separate and not coach him.
But it hit me like a bag of bricks
to the face: I wouldn’t give up on
them. There was no way in hell
I could give up on the one person
that I promised to never give up
on, no matter what.
If nothing else: Be so open that
you’re transparent. Then be so
transparent that you’re open.
