Welcome, Spring!!

Well, hello there, Spring!

It's finally feeling like Spring in NYC.  

I even ate lunch outside today with my dear friend & collaborator, Steve.  While looking for a place to sit, we saw large pots full of hyacinths & daffodils ready to bloom. 

Just as the Earth is awaking from a loooong slumber with vibrancy and wonder, I feel a creative energy surging inside of me which has me excited to revive some hibernating projects and start a few new ones.  

Even with excitement, I still have to move past those pesky insecurities that always creep up every time I start a new project.  Seriously, every time! 

I'm reminded of that fantastic statement by Anais Nin:


     
I remember that playing small is so much more painful than expanding.  

I remember that my question for 2014 (byway of Danielle LaPorte) is: Will I have to shrink to make this work or is this were I can expand?

If the answer is shrink - I say no, thank you. 

If the answer is expand - I take a deep breath, lean into the discomfort & say YES!

Actively participating in life requires taking the risk to blossom.  

What does blossoming look like in your life?

  1. Blossoming for me is gently pushing myself beyond my perceived limits. Thanks for so much wisdom
