I developed this persona. This sharp-as-a-tack “I can do anything BETTER than YOU!”
and I had the grades and credentials to prove it.
Then, as the façade began to crumble and the cracks began to
let the insides do their show, the persona I had so
meticulously developed worked overtime
to protect itself. To no avail. The
cracks continued to open up at just the mere pressure of it!
“I'M MAD AS
HELL AND I’M NOT GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE! The pressure shouts as it mounts.
What does surrender look like? I don’t know.
What does surrender feel like? I don’t know.
But I suppose if this thing is gonna blow anyway (it was designed
to give birth) there are some tools in my tool box that I could remember to use,
now and again. For example, to name a
few:
- Relax into it, i.e. just try and keep breathing!
- Get your team ready. Nobody lives in a vacuum. People need people. Duh.
- Know that there is something soooooo beautiful at the end of it!
- And so on and so forth.
- And remember: it’s YOUR dream. Nobody else’s - they have their own, thank you very much. And if they don’t have one, they need to get one.
