As you begin this path of radical self-responsibility and self-empowerment, you step upon a path of Self-Mastery. The beginning steps can be laborious, and even painful at times… It takes great will, dedication and discipline. With time though, you will find a power the wells up within you. This power will give you energy, inspiration and Joy. This is the power of Consciousness. The power of Love…
This power brings a grace, ease and effortless flow to your steps… The Universe will respond in like. All sorts of synchronicities and amazing occurrences will sprout up around you. Suddenly, what was once a struggle and hardship… Becomes FUN! This is how it is in life…
I had a business coach who shared a similar analogy with me for business. He said starting your business is like pushing a boulder up a mountain. The ascent is challenging and full of great effort. But once you get it to the top, you will begin to push it down hill. Then it becomes effortless. The first 1-3 years is generally you working for your business… With little return. Then there is a moment of transformation and the roles reverse. Suddenly, your business starts working for YOU.
I love this analogy because it teaches a principle. This principle applies to all areas of life… Relationships, fitness, sports, finances, spirituality… This is why great success in any area is rare. Most people give up before they get the boulder to the “top”. They give up before it gets easy.
