This morning I woke up and had a nostalgic desire to go into really old blog posts from when I was blogging, Project Me. I'm talking over a decade ago.
In some ways, it feels like things haven't changed at all and in others I had to really pause and remember that person I used to be. Project Me started way before the blogging of it and it continues way beyond the years I haven't drummed on about it in the online world.
It doesn't mean I don't live it every day. The big difference is that although some things have changed for the absolute betterment of who I am, I noticed that I still struggle to let go of what has become a new reason for my mind to keep me in sticky places.
I hope this feeling of throwing my story out there lasts because then in a blog post in the near future, I will share a bit of the stuckness, but for now, this is so much a post from me, for me. It's a vital message for you too.
When I woke up a few mornings ago, the mist was hanging so low and the furthest we could see was just past the wall in our garden. There is a whole city out there, but it was nowhere to be seen.
My nephews will tell you that I'm never without a profound message or life lesson (even when I know it's driving them crazy and they just want the mist to be a foggy day). My message was, just because you can't see it, doesn't mean it isn't out there.
For me, it's never about not knowing that my happiness, fulfilment and joy are out there. I don't suffer from not believing that my heart is my compass and I can walk through the mist, trusting that the sun will come out and the flowers will blossom.
On the other hand, somewhere along the line, I hid myself in the mist. I stopped sharing about Project Me. It may not seem like a big thing to a whole lot of people, but it's vital to me because I know who I am meant to be.
If you have been following me for a while, you will know that I'm deeply reflective. That's all that Project Me has ever been. It's a journey of awareness that only happens when you put time and effort into it. A project is nothing without time spent on it. It's not a quick fix and I know that because I live Project Me to this day. I'm not sharing it though ... and that is the fault of my lostness in the mist.
Do you know what gets you lost in the mist of self-doubt?
Do you know what clouds what you need to see, beyond the passing moment of self-doubt?
Do you know what mists up the ease with which you would live your life because the noise other people's rules and opinions cloud your way?
I'm always living Project Me, even when you can't see it!
But I'm sitting with very profound questions because of a simply misty morning and because I know who I am (what makes me feel most purposeful) it's not in my highest esteem to ponder these three questions alone, so let's do this together!
Here's my simple call to action: Message me if you want to dig deeper to find the answers and I will tell you how we can do it together: jodene@lifeology.biz or +27827817570
With the wish of a spark of self-awareness through the everyday moments of your life!
