Happiness is More Growth

Have you ever felt like you were on the cusp of something big? I’ve been here before, and I’m getting more discerning about what it feels like. I feel that way again. There’s a part of me that feels overwhelmed by the potentiality of it all, and I’ll delete that thought the minute I write it. There’s also a part of me that is so freaking excited by the limitlessness of growth. What might happen? Now I can embrace the deliciousness of that question. Before, since I was trained as a conflict expert, I used to imagine and plan for the worst. But after a lot of work on those old patterns, I now am mastering the art of imagining the best.

Happiness is growth.

With this feeling being so strong, I am planning again. I know I need more help in my career as an author. I am growing in ways I never imagined—which is awesome—but it also takes time away from the one thing that makes me the happiest: the writing. And let’s face it, there are just some things I don’t want to do, things like spreadsheets and number crunching and such. Not my thing. I know it, and I’m happy to delegate it. Now, it’s all about finding more wonderful, highly consciousness people to work with me. So far, I have done really well in this. Sure, some people have been temporary helpers, but I am rolling with the waves.

At one time, growth seemed unmanageable. Now, I know things will work out. If it takes a while to handle some of the outcomes of rapid growth, well, then it simply does. I only have to rush as much as I want.

Yet, even as I write that, I feel like I’m moving quickly to prepare for the huge wave of abundance coming that is going to blow all my old conceptions of abundance to bits. I can already hear the divine saying, “You ain’t seen nothing yet.”

I say, “Bring it.”

In so many ways, I have outgrown my life, my house. Even my very skin. I feel like a million seeds that have burst their skins in a greenhouse and are ready to be planted in a much larger field.

So, here’s to growth. Lots of it. And to the support needed to manage it and cultivate it and ride it. What’s growing in your life?
