Light Shadow
FIND THE #1 THING THATS STOPPING YOU
There are lots of things that get in our way.
Negative self-talk, expectations, over-thinking, fear
There are lots of things that get in our way.
But for each of us, the #1 thing standing between our best life and us is usually hidden in the place you’d least expect it.
It’s the shadow side of your greatest gift.
That thing that you are the best at – that comes most easily to you – is what you hide behind when the thing you want most presents itself.
The funny hide behind humor.
The helpers hide behind service.
The extroverts hide behind being the life of the party.
The intellectuals hide behind answers.
I could go on and on…
If you’re feeling stuck – maybe you’ve even been working with some of the tools in my toolbox – and you’re just not getting traction in that ONE place where you most want it, figure out what you hide behind.
Once you shine a light on a shadow, it goes away.
But beware, my friends, when turn the light off, the shadow comes back. Your greatest gift and your greatest obstacle are two sides of the same coin, inextricably linked.
The good news?
Once you’ve seen the shadow, you’ll forever be able to recognize when it’s holding you back and you’ll shine your light again.
