“Keep focused on your dream”
This card has so many layers for me today, the first being that staying focused on your dream and keeping your eye on the prize will manifest in ways you haven’t even thought of. I know when I realize something has manifested right before me, it’s often not exactly what I had in mind, but better. Better in a way that I didn’t even know would be better for me, know what I mean? It’s always a surprise for me, though I know I shouldn’t be anymore – but who doesn’t get excited about MAGIC?
Another layer that I felt pulling on my heart to talk about is focusing on YOUR dream. We look up to others who have paved the way for something that looks a lot like our dream, so we follow them and mimic their steps. This is not a bad thing, at the beginning. You’re still getting your feet under you and learning the base groundwork. But what happens when you suddenly have a grip on it and are blazing forward? Does your dream still look like yours, or is it a version of somebody else’s?
Do what feels right in your gut and in your heart. If it feels awkward and you keep finding excuses to not do it, what are you really doing then? A very wise lady recently told me that we should be creating from a “comfort zone”. Yes, push yourself out of a comfort zone to learn new things and grow, but when you’re creating – that’s a deep dive internally that you can only do alone. There’s a reason you were drawn to this path, but there’s also a calling to make it your very own.
As for me? I’m on this creative journey with you. I’ve learned this lesson the hard way, but I keep learning and navigating every single day.
