How do you learn from the pain of life?
Stop.
It’s opposite than what we think.
Stop doing. Stop running. Stop ruminating. Stop.
Can you, stop?
Once upon a time, that was very hard for me. I ran away from it and hid behind doing and doing and more doing. Until, my internal engines were about to blow. I knew, I best stop.
But, I was scared to stop. What would I uncover?
And I didn’t know if I would like what I discovered.
Think of it this way, what if you were reading a paragraph and there were no periods in it. It would read like this.
I will do that You will not know when to catch your breath and the sentence will go on and on and on That does not make sense It is very confusing to understand what the main meaning is and to grasp the impact of the paragraph
I had capitals in that paragraph so that helped somewhat. IF you do not have stops in your life, then you can not read your life.
You are meant to read your life and listen.
Your life does speak. And it takes listening.
Try this, if you like. Take five minutes out of your day, have nothing in your ears, or in your hands, and when you are not supervising little loves.
Stop. Be still. Be present. Five minutes.
See what you discover.
What do you hear?
How do you feel?
What do you discover about you?
And if you are ready to shift away from the busyness to purposeful living, let’s do it, and remove the misery to moments of great JOY in your purpose! Life Purpose Coaching!
