It is now exactly 2 months since my company I worked for and I parted ways. After 12 years of challenging management work, at first a sense of reflect was felt, as now I could rest for a while. I was free to explore and reset for my next chapter.
As time marches on so does the power of time. As I have not found a long term home the power of time is replacing the sense of relief to feelings of insecurity, fear of the future and doubt. The dreams and the ideas are always so easy yet I am experiencing now how difficult creating energy is in entirely new circumstances.
From my personal development training this has shown me where I am right now currently and it would be easy to run away. Gratefully my own previous writings about creating a positive reality for ones self are now having a positive effect on me. They are providing me hope, they are providing me energy to not quitting my marathon. I know life has put me exactly where I need to be right now as life is teaching me several lessons.
One is to truly appreciate what it feels like to not have a constant revenue stream coming in. Another is to truly appreciate the love and support of a life partner when going through periods of transition like these. It is hard to be alone on this journey and I know life is teaching me to become a better and more complete person.
Acceptance is key for me, once acceptance happened and I stopped running I can feel the slow start of momentum growing. This lesson is a true test of the trust in my strength to dig deeper to move forward into the unknown. Team building exercises come to mind where you build trust by doing physical exercises with each other. Where you fall backwards to your team members arms and they catch you. I feel that same sense however I know I am meant to catch myself as I fall backwards.
This journey has been very difficult for me and I have been experiencing life's normal cycles that we all have to face. I think life has shown me these experiences what I was younger, yet at the time I was not able to see them as a benefit to my learning and growth. It has taught me to pay more attention to the power of time and to be aware sooner what is going around in my place in this world.
The gifts of being humble, grateful, open and most importantly for me is being able to understand and apply my boundaries are all being defined to me. To have the strength to say no, where in the past I wouldn't say no and would work harder with the expense being a high cost to me. This cost also effects others close to me and I am not willing to repeat that pattern in my life.
In closing, are you learning from the power of time? How can you leverage your life's lessons to create value in you?
