Slow and steady wins the race, but let’s not confuse that idiom with the messages I have been receiving.
There clearly is a sense of urgency underfoot and it’s not the least bit fueled by fear.
It is not fear – it is urgency – and there is a difference.
With fear or while in the midst of fear, there usually is little or no time for rational thinking nor decision making.
We react.
We do ‘it’ without thought.
A ‘sense of urgency’ allow us the opportunity to pause, reflect, take in all relative information and decide for our highest and best.
What we are unable to decide upon, we confer upon. We go to the source, our ancestors, our spirit guides those who came before us and we collaborate until we receive the wisdom and the knowing we need to make the ideal decision.
The ‘sense of urgency’ relates to several issues, time, being one of them.
One of many.
Time, the elusive, non-renewable resource. We sometimes feel we will never run out of time – the endless hourglass we perpetually flip over and over again.
We treat it lightly or don’t treat it at all.
We go on day by day with little or no regard to time and its true value.
That is the ‘sense of urgency; they/we/I refer to.
There is a sense of urgency and whether time is linear, collapsible, or non-renewable makes no difference, as it eventually runs out.
Sure, we may change form and go on to live in another realm, another place or ‘time’, but for this incarnation, time runs out. So, we focus on the sense of urgency; light the fire under the butt.
Decide now.
So much is lost in indecision/wasted– and that’s the point.
Why are we unable to make decisions?
Why are we unable to make decisions and then stick to them, once we have made them?
There is a ‘sense of urgency’ underfoot, but let’s not confuse it with fear. It can be made easier to understand and even digestible once we acknowledge it, deconstruct it and consume it in small bites.
