People tend to underestimate the power in just showing up. Have you ever worked on a project or a job that felt like it wasn't going well? Instead of quitting you just kept trying to make it work? There is a special pleasure when something that felt hard or too messed up works out.
^ this is a lie... often success doesn't show up until you've been showing up for a long time. :)
I've had many phases in my life where I questioned what I was doing and why, but I have a personal rule to keep showing up until the next thing comes along. I always know when the next thing arrives and it is time to move on. I've gotten old enough to trust that.
Not all days are good days, and they certainly don't always feel successful, but if I put real effort in and continue to show up things have a way of working out, although, often not exactly way I thought it might.
Today was one of those just show up days for me in many ways. Having shown up for the rest of my tasks I figured I would also meet my commitment of a post... "almost every day".
I do have to say, I'm kind of glad this day is nearly behind me. :)
Who knows how all of this turns out? I don't. This is one more day I can say I showed up.
Eventually, it tends to pay off or you find a new thing to show up at.
I'm just going to keep on posting.
