Balancing Urgency and Patience
Well hello there, friend – happy Thursday.
I’m ducking in with a couple quick updates and resources to share with you:
What I’m creating and learning this week:
3 Ways to Use Meaning to Discover the "Right Answer" for your Career (read my tips)
How To Strike A Balance Between Work & Life (listen to my interview on the Results May Vary podcast)
The High 5 Habit and other ways to show up for ourselves (learn how to do it)
What I'm exploring this week:
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about time, mortality and urgency – heavy stuff, I know. But if there’s one message I’ve been receiving from the Universe in 2021, it’s this:
If you want it, if it matters, clear the way and make it happen. Now.
I hear you, Universe.
And I also know the road to clarity and action is long and paved with patience.
Being pulled between the urgency I feel to create what I desire – and the reality that any kind of meaningful change takes time… is, well, exhausting.
Like a duck who looks calm above the surface but is paddling mightily under the water – outwardly I may not look like I’m moving. But underneath it all, I’m busy planning and building and dreaming.
How do you strike a balance between urgency and patience? Between paddling to propel yourself forward and gliding with the current?
From one duck to another – I'd love to hear from you.
Onward,
Ashley
