Day by day, drip by drip. The key for me is acknowledging the little tiny gems along the way that become the path for ‘doing the thing, by doing the thing.’

Indeed, MJ. A daily discipline of micros steps compounds quickly overtime. The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing and show up daily to do the work!

I’m intrigued by the concept of “…becoming more of what you’ve always been.” For the past few months I’ve been on a journey of releasing everything that isn’t me—all of the programming that has come from many external sources and created an amalgamation of what I used to think of as “me.” And it was a heavy load, with lots of rules. As I’ve been shedding the weight, I’ve become more and more joyful as I rediscover what’s actually me. Now, I’m turning my attention to—as Frank Sinatra said—doing it my way. I’ve realized over the past few months that if there is no joy in the things you do, all you’re doing is going through the motions of living, and I want so much more than that!

I hope you can make today’s call, Katt. “becoming more of what you’ve always been” is one of my favorite topics. I will actually address it directly in the next installment of the Close the Gap book project.

A principal related to this idea is that we are born sufficient and whole, possessing everything we need to thrive and succeed, even after educational and occupational conditioning gets a hold of us.

It sounds like you are instinctually and intuitively finding your way back to coming more of what you’ve always been. Keep leaning in and keep going!

Yes, I think that’s exactly it. We have to peel back all the layers of conditioning—things that aren’t really use—to get to the heart of ourselves. See you in a bit!
