Do you know when to act and when to be still? Energy is actually always in motion – every atom in the universe is filled with electrons that are moving constantly – as matter slows it appears to create something solid and tangible like a desk, a tree, a mountain or a human. You as a conscious being have the capacity to speed up or slow at will.
The slower you get, the more palpably you can feel and perceive energy – your own as well as that of your business. As the seasons change the invitation to slow comes directly from nature herself. When we attempt to force things to happen in our lives and our business we waste our energy and life force and can often end up overwrought, overwhelmed and overexhausted. While each of us has our own natural rhythm and cycle we can look to the larger rhythms and cycles of nature as a guide and we can consciously choose to align ourselves and our work with those larger flows of energy.
Taking time to slow down, to be still and to act with greater attention to detail and more deliberation allows you to crystallize or solidify your intentions to create an entrepreneurship that is finely crafted like a piece of great art or sculpture. Your business – your entrepreneurship – is the vehicle through which you are delivering your soul’s gifts to the world. Your practice then is to create this vehicle with the mindfulness and patience that will enable you to deliver in a way that is both sustainable and allows you to maintain the fire of desire that keeps you interested and invested in bringing that passionate purpose to the world.
My partner Mikael and I have been working within our Core Path Intensive program with clients who are learning how to manage and master their personal power (also known as energy) and how to connect that power with their passionate purpose in RIGHT RELATIONSHIP. When the HIGH OCTANE fuel of first discovering your passionate purpose wears off then the long term process of establishing a healthy and DIVINE partnership with your business begins to be called forth from you. Being an entrepreneur in and of itself is a spiritual practice. It can be a challenge that hones your spirit to be asked by the world and your business to slow down, to come into a place of stillness and to act with clarity, with intent and with deliberation after experiencing periods of rapid growth and development that fire up your imagination and exercise your creative gifts.
Be kind to yourself as you and your business go through the quite normal ups and downs of crafting a relationship. Know that there are tools and skills that you will be acquiring and building along the way. Look to nature as an example of sustainable creativity. Notice your own energy and how it ebbs and flows. Get in touch with your own rhythms and cycles and organize yourself and your work to accentuate your strengths. Delegate or delete those areas where you are weakest from your business model. Don’t try to do everything at once or be like everyone else that you see out there. YOUR gift is unique. YOUR journey is your own. There is perfection in the stillness. Allow yourself and your business to just BE sometimes!
