This world is calling for our authenticity. It is calling for our joy. What we pay attention to matters. So, in the dark of winter, I ask you: are you being gentle with yourself?

The media wants us to hate each other. And it’s so easy to do if we isolate or stay inside glued to our screens. But the second we get out of our heads and go out into the world, things change.

There is something so liberating and so empowering when we take ownership of everything that is happening to us. Could you be open to the idea that you are far more powerful than you realize? Could you be open to the idea that you co-create with the Universe everything that is happening in your reality? And could you be open to the idea that when you signed up to incarnate here on earth you wanted to experience all the emotions, so some part of you actively seeks out and creates struggle, hardship, drama, and pain?

I want to write about people telling us we can’t do something, or that it will be difficult. Because it sucks. It plants a seed in our fertile mind—a seed that says “Not possible” for us--and too often, once this happens, we don’t try.

We are becoming Humans Being instead of Humans Doing. Too many of us were taught our self-worth depends on how productive we are. When someone asks us, “What have you been doing?” Most of us would feel great shame around answering something like, “Nothing." Or, "I have been Undoing.”

So many of us know there is greatness inside of us. We know we were born to Light up this world and do to something spectacular. And yet, we don’t know what it is, where to start, how to get there. So we stay stuck.
