“Aerodynamically, the bumble bee shouldn’t be able to fly, but the bumble bee doesn’t know it, so it goes on flying anyway”.  – Mary Kay Ash

What propels us to move out of our comfort zones and take new steps? We are wired to keep evolving and meeting ourselves anew as who we really are; a limitless spirit in a body. To do that, we are constantly asked or pushed and pulled to transform ourselves by creating change within and in what we give to the world.

Recently,  I was awakened to a next step for me to take. I have wanted to write a book since I was a child. I’m not sure why, but it was always a silent goal floating around inside of me to accomplish one day. The thought hadn’t crossed my mind for many a year. And then comes Ralph.

About a month ago, my friend Ralph sent me an email and said that he had an idea – why don’t I write a book? Since being a writer is part of his repertoire, he said he would support me in that process if I wanted to give it a shot. I read his email, questioned his sanity, and became amazed at the many reasons that immediately surfaced as to why I couldn’t possibly write a book. The biggest reason was, of course, that I have nothing to say.

We met, Ralph and I, and he told me a very simple way to go about it. He showed me how a book could be as uncomplicated as a small spiral bound notebook. Okay, I thought, maybe there is some possibility here. How hard can it be to commit to writing at least fifteen minutes a day on whatever comes up for me as he suggested? Surely I can do that!

Initially, it was rather magical. I would simply write what the day seemed to beautifully call forth from me. The next scene, a few weeks later, shows us Juli at her computer staring blankly at the screen…”Let’s see, two minutes have gone by…only thirteen more. Or, maybe those two minutes don’t technically count since I haven’t written anything…oh, there goes another two minutes…maybe I need a snack to get the words flowing”. Sure, an easy process alright.

Growth happens when you are ready to say yes to something new inside of you and take action to bring it into manifestation. Initially that can be exhilarating and generate a lot of enthusiasm. Each word you write is a sacred chalice that comes directly from the gods during this period (if writing is your next step). Then the honeymoon ends.

Suddenly, you may feel like you are pushing a boulder up a mountain. You really want to move forward in this new direction and are excited by the idea, but there at the top of the mountain are all of your past limits and old beliefs trying to stare you back down to the bottom. All the invalidating voices start to speak up and resistance to what you are doing can begin to feel overpowering. As Wayne Dyer states so eloquently in Excuses Begone!, “Simply being cognizant of your excuse making will open you up to vast arenas of new possibilities. You can begin this process by paying attention to the false part of yourself that believes in limitations. Simply observe the thoughts in your mind and feelings in your body and note when they don’t resonate with your authentic self.”

The choice is to turn around and take what appears to be the easy route back to familiar ground or you can decide to focus your energy on what you want to create. Decide that you can be the person you want to be and do the things you want to do. Free yourself of the limiting beliefs that keep you from going forward by choosing new ones.

All you need to do is take the next little step on the road to your goal. Suddenly all those next steps add up and you are holding a book you’ve written or on the job that you were afraid to apply for or having coffee with your future mate. All it takes is a little courage, a lot of perseverance and a good friend named Ralph to get the energy moving.
