Risk Your Bigness

Your shadow isn’t conscious by you – until it is. If it were, you would hardly be operating in its grip.

Your shadow is you yet to be awakened, you yet to be owned, you yet to be made aware of. You and it are one, operating in a constant internal dance of fear and love.

The love side of the equation is normally the part in the shadow, those bits and parts you’ve stored away not giving much love to. Those bits and parts that might be so overwhelming to hold and handle because they cast so much light that seats you so much more fully in your power.

The pathway into your power is built brick by brick, day by day, interaction by interaction, operating from an ever more slightly bigger you, with whomever you can find to trial and error be it the server at a restaurant, your mate, your direct report, or the boss three levels up.

It’s all about the risk, not about the bigness. Fear not, and give it a go on repeat.
