Keep on Truckin

Remember this?

Love this old tag line '"Keep on Truckin".  Saw it everywhere in the 70s, but I still use it today.  Especially when I put myself out there - really stepping into some old personal fears.  For a long time, I would gather information, keep getting more education, create many wonderful ideas in my head for no one to see but myself, or take courses here and there, but would shy away from "stepping out" and sharing it or giving it... simply because, it was scary or I never felt I was good enough or knew enough yet..... yet....yet......but....but... but...  Ya get the picture?

Well, I'm stepping out now!  Is it uncomfortable at times? Do I feel vulnerable? Do I feel like I'm being judged?  Do I judge myself?  Do I not get the feedback I was hoping for?  Do I wonder if I did it right?  Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes and yes.  But ya know what.... I  keep on truckin.

There are days when I look like this

beat up & exhausted

            or this....

what did I do or how do I do this?

But I figure, there is a lesson in everything I do.  Basically, in every moment.   I struggle with my internal voices at times, doubting myself and my efforts.

hmmmm...doubting.....

pondering

I pause at moments, I re-think, ponder, brainstorm, and take note to assess and decipher feelings from reality.

contemplating

I contemplate.

asking for guidance

But honestly, I feel deep down that I believe in what I'm doing and that I truly want to make a living doing what I love and love what I do... and when I connect with "up above"....    

....I feel in my heart that the joy and purposeful living I strive for and want to pass on to others is the ultimate win/win.



So, to snap out of it, I make a few phone calls to get moving again.  This helps me get out of my head and reconnected - keeping the energy flowing.  Before you know it, I'm back in action with new ideas, new connections, new plans, new goals and new strategies. 

 So, afraid I taught my Nia class too fast, too slow or forgot my moves? heard crickets when teaching a Laughter Yoga class as I realized I was the only one truly engaging in the exercises? gave a free health consultation and the person was not ready to commit to moving forward?  made a great alliance contact and then they don't follow through?.... DO I THROW UP MY ARMS AND SAY FUGHETTABOUTIT!

peace!

Naaawwww.   I remind myself to take a chill and peace out.  All is good.  Rome was not built over night, right?!   Perseverance, hard work and following my heart is my voyage.   So, yes, KEEP ON TRUCKIN....believe in yourself, your abilities, your heart and go for it!   (and invest in a good pair of shoes)

HAHAHA!
