The Next Version of You

I copied and pasted this meme to my desktop – 3~ months ago, promptly forgot about it, continued planning my life – committed to furthering the ethos of the More To Life Program. After all, for 42 years, it has been a central focus in my life. I would not be who I am today were it not for the lifeshocks/people that compelled me into the unknown, exposed my fears, opened my heart, awakened my faith in the All Everything.

I had no idea that the next version of myself was coming so swiftly.

After I got home from my last trip to Europe, one training in Cambridge/UK and the next week another in Madrid/Spain, I woke up with my gut, out of nowhere, insisting/demanding that I STOP traveling/training. Seriously, I had Other Plans. To my credit, I responded immediately – resigned from training, resigned from two boards and two Executive Committees. Then the self-doubt/second guessing began. However, I totally trust my gut.

It’s been about a month since then. I realized, once again, my gut knew something my head did not. I started feeling more relief, less shock, more “A-HA”/wondering, less grief (I so love training and traveling). So I’m currently living in the “Don’t Knows” – a place of faith, a place of trust in my connection to Life. It’s rather like being open, not knowing, and at the same time, a sense of “Knowing” – a sense of something incoming that has my name on it.

Question – What is the next version of YOU? Do you also have a sense that something is “incoming” that is worth the wait?
