DECIDE TO RISE
Push. Turn up the volume. Go hard. Go harder.
Reprioritize your aches and pains.
Infuse your sensitivities with courage.
Tell fear to fuck right the fuck off.
Devote yourself to done.
There are Soul-justified reasons to cancel. There are times to just stop.
This isn’t one one them. Keep going. Show up. Full on. Full tilt. Full out.
Decide to be one of those people who pull it off.
Do what you say you’re going to do.
Don’t let us down.
Decide to rise.
Why decide to rise?
Not for the reasons you might think.
In fact, these are the reasons that will make you sick and tired.
Do not rise out of obligation.
Do not rise because of fears consequences.
Do not rise because you think being tough makes you smarter (it doesn’t).
Decide to rise because you want to expand —your being, your life, your possibilities. Decide to rise because superpowers are meant to be activated and applied in everyday life.
Decide to rise to explore your place in the Universe.
On the other side of deciding to rise is illumination, ecstasy, insight.
And the angel of your strength is there waiting, smiling, applauding, with a goblet of endorphins for you,
Drink Up!
When you transcend circumstances you get special privileges.
You get evidence that you are indeed amazing, and irrefutable proof that what your heart and mind choose is what matters.
And you get the deep knowing that life wants you to win.
Decide to rise.
Lean in. Listen up. Closely.
It’s your Soul speaking, sand she says,
Get up!
I need you.
I want you.
I am you.
Choose me
Lean in.
Listen up.
Closely.
Decide to Rise.
-Danielle Laporte
You may or may not be familiar with the best selling author, Danielle Laporte. One of her creations is The Desire Map.
The Desire Map is a self-exploration to identify your core desired feelings. It inspires a more feeling-based approach to life.
That was a game changer for me, so much so, I indulged myself into this work because of how foundational it was and I know how much it would help others.
I am a Desire Map Facilitator. I believe that Desire Mapping is a quick and effective way to tap into what we really want. We get confused along the way, distracted and we tend to complicate things. We forget who we are and what we really want.
Clarity is power, and in my own experience with The Desire Map process, it has given me so much clarity in the direction I really want to go and who I really want to be, and most importantly how I wanted to feel.
I will be sharing some of her work here on Steemit. I will also share when I have available spots open for the full Desire Map Workshop online and 1:1 Sessions.
It really is life changing personal development and spiritual growth work.
Let me know if you enjoyed this poem.
I hope you all have a wonderful day!
