How often do we want to be somewhere, but rebel against the process in getting there?
It takes focus, diligence, patience,
and planning to get anywhere significant. And oftentimes it's the
process that makes us into the person that can handle what's ahead.
Almost seems like the more I want
something, the more emotional resistance arises to challenge me. I feel
insecure. I am afraid it won't work and then what? Who do I think I am? I am immobilized by
timidity.
Truth is, where I want to go takes
courage. It takes the process of getting there if I am going to be worth
anything to those I lead and mentor. It takes everything working
together to make me the kind of person I need to be to do the job well. A
new level of understanding. What it means to engage in the process. To
be afraid. To diminish the fears with careful planning. To take a step
and let the next one rise up to meet me.
