potency
Hey friend,
Jung said, “People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own soul”
People will listen to thousands of hours of podcasts
Read a million books
Go to all the retreats
Take all the medicine
Network with every possible group
All in the denial of themselves
All in denial of their innate genius
Friend, consider that you are the most potent thing in your life
You have the ability to have the great impact & impression upon yourself
You can continue to seek it everywhere else
And you may make some progress…
But the real depth, the real journey, the real adventure awaits
In you coming into your own space, your own authority
Into the recognition that you are the greatest, most potent, most powerful thing in your universe.
The longer you deny this, the longer that you will continue to retreat & return to what you already know and what you have always done.
You are the mountain. You are the mystery. You are the great unknown.
There is nothing greater, bigger, beyond what you are.
Chances are, you just don’t know how to access the most essential part of you (yet).
