It’s all life, not me

It was a gorgeous, sunny autumn day, so we spent the afternoon on the boat with friends. It was so nice!

But I have a million things to do right now.

The doors to my brand-new program open on Monday, and there’s still a lot to do.

A couple of years ago, one of two things would have happened:

#1 I’d have skipped the boat trip because I’d feel guilty about not working, or

#2 I’d have gone and spent the entire trip feeling anxious, thinking about all the things I “should” be doing instead.

Not anymore.

I don’t make a distinction between “work” time and “free” time anymore. I simply follow what feels right in each moment—and everything flows and unfolds with ease.

I know what you think:

How is that possible? Does everything get done that needs to get done when you just follow the flow?

Yes. It does. 

Don’t ask me how. I don’t plan the logistics. That’s all life, not me. 

I only know what I experience:

Everything always gets done, with or without pushing.

The only thing pushing does is give you the illusion that you’re in control.

That it’s your effort that gets things done.

It isn’t. 

That’s all life, too. 

Love,
