Diminishing Yourself

You can choose another direction.

In what ways are you 
diminishing yourself?

In what ways are you 
diminishing your work?

In what ways are you 
diminishing your partner?

STOP.

It's time for you to rise.
It's time for your work to shine.
It's time for your love to blossom.

Spring is here.
If you choose it.

It starts with 
you.

Reflection

Reflect on the three questions opening this piece.

Life is hard enough as it is without all the extra unnecessary load we burden ourselves with. And there are the million ways we like to chop ourselves and our loved ones down.

You do this habitually, much to your better self’s disappointment in you.

But there lies the tricky bit.

Those habits.

Not so easily changed. And so we continually find ourselves doing things we aren’t proud of. But maybe that change could be a worthwhile pursuit…

How freeing would it feel to relieve yourself of that weight?

Just making all this conscious is a massive leap forward.

Once you are aware, you can act.

YOU can act.

If you choose to.

The Meaning Path is a labour of love. If you enjoy these posts, it would be wonderful if you could share my work with someone you think could benefit from a weekly dose of purpose, depth and possibility.

On today’s walk — the moon was spectacular! I’m endlessly fascinated by the beauty of the moon. How cool is it that we get to see it?
