A gentle start to the week about distinguishing real urgency from the manufactured kind.
You’ve learned to keep it together. To be the strong one. The steady one. The one who doesn’t let things get to them. So you build walls. You thicken your skin. You tell yourself not to care quite so much. Because caring can hurt. Little by little, protecting yourself starts to feel like strength. But what if strength was never about hardening? What if the bravest thing you can do is stay soft in a world that keeps asking you to close?Join me as we Calm it Down in 3…2…1.
About noticing when your narration inflates ordinary moments into something bigger.
“Over analysis can lead to decision paralysis.”
Trust yourself. Trust the Spirit in you.
Chad Lawson, “Calm it Down” podcast
Been thinking on how I can express myself on this platform in a way that is helpful-and going beyond just “sounding off” on stuff. (Although there is nothing wrong with that.)
So-I am going to try to post one thing a day that is encouraging or inspirational, from whoever, or myself, as the Spirit leads. I may forget, get busy, etc, but I will try.
So, for today, my thought is from Chad Lawson’s podcast, “Calm It Down”:
“You don’t need more life-hacks, you need more rest.”
Have a great weekend!
(And please boost if you like these posts-and check out Chad Lawson-he is also a musician, too-amazing piano player)
