When is it really time to step in?

BY COLLEEN LINDBERG

Life is a bundle of joy, challenges, laughter, and tears, some days all rolled up into one hour. I know you know the feeling. You and I both have been there multiple times in our life. We get to crossroads, pathway, and adventures where we need to make a choice do I or don’t I?

Well, there might be something on your mind right now that you have been questioning. Should I leave him? Should I ask her out? Should I change careers? Should I have a baby? All of these and many more questions loom our thoughts as humans. We are in a great space in the universe right now. It’s spring, so things are becoming alive here in Canada and I really feel that we are at a great time to make changes in our life. So how do you evaluate this for yourself? Let’s chat about it.

1) One way to know if you are making changes for the better is to listen to your intuition. If you have been feeling about this change for a while, dreaming about it, seeing visions about it, you light up when you talk about it and you really feel it’s a change that will be for the better. then it’s time my friend to take action. We sometimes get so bogged down in the details of things and thinking about stuff that we forget how courageous and resourceful we can be. Without stepping in and trying you will never know. So, if you are being pulled in this direction, let’s do it.



2) If you are in a toxic environment. If you feel down on yourself when you are with these people or in this job, it’s time to leave. If you don’t feel valued, there is no respect, or you are in a negative space it’s time to leave. You do not have to stay in environments like this, there are people out there who will value you in all avenues of life. It really is time to move through this, trust that the path will align. We are creatures meant to be free, to love and be happy, if you are not it’s time to step out of those spaces.

3) If you haven’t felt that feeling of nervousness or newness lately or maybe I can call it the twinge in your stomach that scares you, it’s time. We as humans have been built to experience and explore. It’s how we learn. We have this amazing world in front of us and some people haven’t even acknowledged that yet in their life. We aren’t meant to be people that just have mundane lives every day. We are meant to explore, to endeavor in and to adventure. So, if you have not felt that feeling in a long time it’s time for some change. Maybe you want to step into a new hobby, like the salsa dance classes you have been meaning to take. Or you have been saying to yourself for years, let’s go and hike that mountain. Maybe, just maybe it’s been a small thing that still scares you, but really when it will be a good time to step in. The time is now.

Whatever it is in your life you are questioning, why not try and see what happens? I know from experience that it will all be ok because it just will be. So, if you knew that, what would you do?
