How do I get THERE from HERE?
If you only knew how many times a day I ask myself this question!
Oh, it might disguise itself in a million different ways, but it's always the same question.
I love this quote "Our job is not to figure out the how, the how will show up out of commitment and belief in the what." (Jack Canfield)
That doesn't mean I don't constantly try to figure out the how.
But I'm working on letting go and believing and I've gotten a lot better at that.
So, how do you get THERE from HERE without figuring out all the how details?
You might be in one job but really want to be promoted to another one.
Or maybe you're working a job and want to have a completely different career altogether.
Maybe it's changing schools or getting out of a relationship.
Maybe you've been living in the same home for years and you really want to move into a new place.
Maybe you're living in a city or town and really feel the need to move to a new city or - maybe even a new country!
You just don't know how realistically you can get THERE from where you are, HERE, now.
It's hard to see how all the little pieces will fit together.
You want to make them fit together.
I mean, that's how I feel, at least.
But I know it's never worked that way.
So I remember another quote that I love, love, love and should definitely practice more often:
"Make up your mind what you want to be and what you want to do, then take every path that might lead in that direction. Let everyone know what you want so they can help you. And they will. Be definite and determined. After a while, they see you are determined and you're going to do it, and they will help you because they want to be part of it. "
(Hank Cochran, songwriter, "I Fall To Pieces", "She's Got You" , "Ocean Front Property" & many more)
No one ever got what they wanted by keeping it a little secret in their heart.
Sometimes, you get by with a little help from your friends...and in some cases, the help of friends of friends, and the kindness of strangers as well.
All you need to see is HERE (where you are now) and THERE (where you want to be) and things tend to fall in line as they're meant to.
I'm sure hoping they will - with a lot of effort, a lot of faith, a lot of spirit, and some help from those who believe in the beauty of our dreams.
Here's to getting there!!!
Take care out there....
Dawn
