Surrendering vs. settling…

what do those two very different words feel like to you, in your body, in your heart?

When you settle for something, for that thing less than, for not really want you want, it feels so icky, right? Do you find yourself falling into the “I don’t care” mode? Oh, I have heard this so often, the, I don’t care where we go to dinner, I don’t care what movie we see, I don’t really care if I get that new job, etc, etc… Boring…

You know, you really DO care, it would mean so much more for you to speak up, say what you desire, ask for it, and then, BAM, get it! Why settle for less than you are, less than you deserve, less than you DESIRE?

Switch over to Surrender… to surrendering to your desires, to allow the flow, the possibilities to unfold, for you to actually have what you desire. Because you can, because you believe, because you stand up and show up and spend time creating what you want. Then how you want to build it, achieve it, get it, taking action! No sitting on the couch here, my friend. But going after it with ease and trust and flow, not clenching and gripping, and definitely not settling.

I invite you to spend some time thinking about how those words feel in your body, and journal those thoughts. Remember, thoughts become words, become things.
