Hey guys,
I’ve been working with a lot of people in the last couple of months that have been spending a lot of time ‘stuck in the mud’.
The reason they’ve been stuck there is because the people around them have been stuck in the mud for a really long time and they have made it home, so the people I’ve been working with thought that that was where they were supposed to be as well.
They even felt guilty for even thinking about wanting to get out of the mud.
They even thought that they would be deserting the others, leaving them behind, if they got out of the mud.
So, they stayed ‘stuck in the mud’.
The reason why they stayed in the mud for so long was because they were trying to help everyone that was stuck there to get out.
The only problem is they didn’t realise, those people were comfortable there!
They didn’t realise that being stuck in the mud was their comfort zone!
While they were stuck in the mud with them they tried to rescue them and lift them onto the bank and set them free, only to see they their rescuees jump back into the mud, because they didn’t know what to do when they got out there.
They even carried them on their shoulders for a bit, but nothing changed, except for the fact the were spending longer and longer stuck in that mud, while life was passing them by, and nothing had changed….
And that’s why they were brought to me J , because they were ready to step out of the mud and start following their own dreams!
We tend to spend a lot of time holding ourselves back in life because we don’t want to leave the people around us behind.
We ‘jump in that mud’ with them, try to help them, all the while waiting for them to get out, but they don’t, because they are comfortable being stuck!
We know that saying…. ‘Better the devil you know….’
When we are stuck in the mud with the people we want to help, we become ineffective, because we are not walking in our power, we’re stuck on their level, so to be able to help them we need to Step Out Of The Mud!
A part of us may feel guilty because we feel we are ‘abandoning’ them, but the reality is that when we step out of that mud and we walk along that bank…
WE ARE LEAVING A TRAIL FOR THEM TO FOLLOW!!!
The only way we can help them to get out of that mud is to lead the way!
The only way we can help them is to be their beacon of light and leave that trail for them!
The only way we can help them is to start walking on our own path and start heading in the direction that we want to go!
That is the best, most wonderful gift we can give them!
The gift of inspiration, the gift of hope, the glimpse of another way and the ability to follow in our footsteps until they find the path that is right for them!
By following our dreams, finding our passion, we find our Purpose!
That is the most amazing gift you can give to anyone around you!
Be an inspiration to others, step out of the mud, step onto your path, follow your passion, be that guiding light….
It’s up to them as to how long they take to step on that path, so even if they don’t follow straight away, they will follow…
You just need to take that 1st step….
Give yourself permission, you’re allowed…
Play and see where it takes you 🙂
Many blessings, always
