What Do You Seek?

What is it you seek?

What are you looking for?

Notice, the question is not, what do you WANT?

Seeking out, creates action that is stimulated not by what the other can do for you, but rather, what you are are willing to do to find the momentum in your discovery for yourself.

Seeking does not put pressure on you to change for someone else, or something else.

To seek, allows the action to be completely self-directed: to forge, to discover, to pursue, to find.

I kinda love this word. It opens up the possibility for curiosity, and pliability to be led by that curiosity, so there isn’t a rigidity having to “do” in a certain way.

You can answer for yourself in so many ways. It can be very general, or very specific, and yet it doesn’t create boundaries that inhibit you or a focus that is misinformed.

What do you seek? Why do you seek it? How are you putting that curiosity into action? What are the possibilities it could lead to? How are you giving yourself permission to stay curious, to create your own boundaries, and stay pliable & present to allow that momentum to take you where it leads you?

Start with the big picture and move in. Or, start with a specific task and move out. Only you know what your gut says it right for you. Nobody speaks for your gut.

Let the action lead you, and know that simply in the action of discovery, you are present in your authenticity more than you might realize. You can seek, seek out, and then let your curiosity lead you fully into claiming what you find. Allow that momentum to lead you where it leads you! Often, we find ourselves moving and discovering things along the way we had never imagined; or re-focusing us in a new and more authentic & empowering way.

Seek, and discover.

Seek, and empower.

Seek, and claim.

Seek, and reveal.

Seek, and reflect.

Seek, and allow.

Don’t write the script and finish it before you get there! You limit the possibilities that way!

Seek and stay ready, stay curious, stay open. Trust your boundaries. Trust your gut. Learn to say no. Learn why you say yes.

with fondness & fierceness,
