Move Your Legs.
It’s like cement.
The situation in which you find yourself is like cement. You know you have to move, you know some sort of change MUST happen. You know this as well as you know that a day is 24 hours. It is inevitable. You cannot go on like this. The thought is a persistent migraine. It is more consuming than oxygen. You feel it in your thoughts, in your chest, in your legs.
The hardest part is that you don’t know how to move your them. You see the choices of where to go. There are a million. What idea and path makes sense? What does my heart say? Where is my mind taking me? Just focus. Focus and then you can figure out what to do and where to go. Why can’t I move my legs?
The idea is backwards.
Steve Jobs said that “People think focus means saying yes to the thing you’ve got to focus on. But that’s not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are.”
Don’t focus on something. Use focus. Use focus blocking out the other choices that exist: the other places and decisions. The cement is not real. You have created the cement. The cement is your beliefs and your fears and your chosen circumstance.
Make a choice. Move a leg. Breathe again.
