This month is all about the soar, the high’s of the process, the feeling that all your hard work is finally coming together in some magical way and showing you an easier path than you are used to. This is where it all starts to make more sense.
It is not by chance that I followed our dip from last month with an up this month. In my experience this passion project process (try saying that out loud), feels just like that. It can be overwhelming at times, because you feel you are on a roller coaster of change and emotion. Sometimes it can make you feel like you are going a little bit crazy. Fear not my friend for yes indeed…this is all part of the process. This is as normal as it is terrifying, welcome to the gang! So don’t let the soar frighten you – sit back and hold tight for ladies and gentlemen we have take off.
If you haven’t yet felt this feeling with your project, do not be discouraged. It will come, I promise. Remember this too if you are still feeling the remains of a dip or feel yourself heading into one – keep this picture as a reminder of what is to come.
If you haven’t experienced it yet you may wonder – how will I know when I am in it? How will I know when I am there? Believe me when I say –– you just know.
Soaring is:
Finally seeing your style emerging out of the process and when it comes you feel jubilation because you know you have found a little bit of you!
Scribbling pages and pages of words that come without effort or thought – the subconscious is racing through you and you are skilled enough now to let it.
Piecing things together that you have been struggling on all year and finally seeing a whole, a reason, a meaning that you never knew was there – but it seems like it always was.
An overall feeling of calm and wisdom in a place in the world or your life where you never thought you would. The work is paying off.
Realizing that you are working – but no longer questioning why.
Soaring for me was when finally my work made sense.
When everything I was working on felt truly me.
When I realized why I had been struggling so much, but how all of that was necessary to finally feel this light feeling that was coming over me now.
Simply put.
Soaring feels amazing.
Try not to question it when it comes.
Try not to hold onto it for too long.
Try not to control it as best you can.
It is just the ride.
Taking you to your next station.
And remember when you wave goodbye…
it’s gonna come back to pick you up again.
Just when you least expected it!
Have fun my friends.
See you in September.
