What would we do if we didn't have your guiding vision?
The world couldn’t turn without you.
You care about others and you make so much happen for us. You have a clear purpose – perhaps in a creative field, in healthcare, in leadership, in management, or as a professional, an entrepreneur, a scientist.
You add to the world – you’re imaginative and visionary.
You are doing important work.
You hold things together.
We could say you’re the one who sleeps at the mouth of the cave.
And I want you to think about the price you’ve paid for all this giving.
You’re so conscientious that (almost unbelievably)...
....there are times, many times, when you feel inadequate and an imposter.
May I ask you - what are these old yearnings you’re vaguely aware of?
Why do you often feel drained and tired from the emotional and physical toll of the unmitigated attention you give to work and home life?
You’re thoughtful about so much.
You’re sensitive, caring, smart, you know your stuff, you have a great career.
You thought you were enjoying the good life.
Maybe it’s a simple one - with just enough for your requirements and for donations to support the causes you believe in..
Or an intense one that's very social, with food, exotic travel, mind-stretching reading, body-challenging sport.
And truth to tell, simple or complex - you're wondering when the other shoe will fall.
When the fatal flaw will show up?
The conscientious seeking never really quiets the unease you feel in the background.
Actually, these days, it’s more than unease- it’s urgency.
Your survival instinct is speaking up, asking you for how long this can hold.
start by exploring what i call creative slack
Develop personal forms of rest and resourcing through a new awareness of what’s going on inside.
Learn to bring deep and meaningful connection and partnership into many spheres of your life.
Express your own requirements clearly and to set down firm boundaries.
Find ways to let go, to stop worrying, to heal the old wounds.
If you have children, you are probably aware of some of the DNA your lineage carries and of your family dynamics.
You know don't want your children to carry forward any (ahem) dysfunctional aspects that there might be.
So you probably sense that some sensitive healing may be needed.
develop control over the characters in your head.
Who speaks to you in the privacy of your mind?
Are you an avoider?
A controller?
A hyper-achiever?
A hyper-rational?
A hyper-vigilant?
A pleaser?
A stickler?
A restless?
A pleaser?
