I sign up for a lot of free webinars/teleseminars and never attend. Sometimes because the timing is off and other times because I just plain forget. I signed up for the Trailblazing webinar last week thinking the same thing would happen, but it didn't, and I'm so glad.
For so so long I've had a deep desire to share my gifts with the world. I've known I'm meant for more than the standard office job, but have not been able to figure out how to get from here to there. "There" being that succulent place of meaningful work and life-purpose living and dream making. So I dabble in a little bit of this and a little bit of that, but lose focus or get bored or the fear comes rising up.
I wrote in my journal last night that my head feels so cloudy. I know what I want to do, but I don't. I feel like I've been walking the road for a long time and all of a sudden I look up and realize I'm not on any road anymore - just the vast desert and the wind's blowing and getting sand in my eyes. I said a prayer for guidance, even just a little bit. What I heard was, "Keep walking." Not exactly what I wanted to hear, but I made a note of the advice trusting that it's exactly what I need to do.
I logged on to the webinar, which was like a total smack on the head. Jonathan (Trailblazing founder) talked about blazing your own trail, creating your own path, moving away from the template and what everyone else is doing. Yes! That's exactly what I needed to hear. I've been trying to copy other people's success stories when all along I should have been creating my own.
After the webinar I realized what "keep walking" really means. I may be in the desert without a path in sight, but if I keep walking I create the path.
Hallelujah!
