Just Do It: Embracing Action in the Face of Adversity

In 2010 my master passed away unexpectedly.

Despite the tragic event, I have found that his teachings continue to live on through me.

His words propel me to live a life of authenticity

like the wind filling the sails of a ship

navigating courageously through the fog

reminding me to live beyond the limitations of the mind

into

clear

open

waters.

The two phrases that had the most impact on me were simple, yet profound:

"Just do."

"Why wait."

I share these words today because they have transformed my life in ways that once seemed unimaginable.

You see, years ago I stopped waiting.

I stopped waiting because I realised no one was coming.

No one or event would suddenly appear and hand me my dream life.

The realisation was devastating but true.

 If I want a healthy body

then that's on me to love and nurture the energy that would feed and sustain a healthy body.

If I want sunshine and good food wherever I go

then that's on me to take the steps that would allow me to relocate.

If I want the freedom to buy without hesitation - to be able to buy whatever I want whenever I want without needing to opt for the cheaper item in the supermarket, then it's on me to create financial abundance.

If I want or am in need of love

then I must first learn to embody and communicate love.

If addiction or sabotaging behaviour block my path

it's up to me to get the help I need so that I may begin to heal and live freely.

If my relationship is dull and unfulfilling

that's also on me to either revive it, find a solution, or walk away.

You might be wondering "what if I try and I fail?"

Here's what I've learned:

1. The more you fall the softer the landing. Failure is an incredible teacher and humbles the ego. You begin to take life less seriously, meaning that more joy can enter you.

2. Never stay down. Like in a game, when your character dies, you simply select “restart” and try again.

3. Most people are too absorbed with their own lives to judge your falling's, and if gossip arises, remember—it reflects the individual, not you. That energy is theirs to hold, not yours.

4. The stories of the mind will conjure up endless, "what ifs" but if you prioritise and direct your energy for the book you never wrote, the healthier body you envision; momentum WILL carry you forward.

As I reflect on my master’s teachings his words continue to remind me that waiting for life to happen is not an option. Instead, life transforms when we take ownership of our desires, even if it feels daunting at times.

So what next?

Whether it's making a commitment to exercise for a healthier mind and body, getting help for sleepless night's, re-locating, changing jobs, finding a specialist for the pain in your body, or creating deeper and more meaningful relationships.

Don't wait.

With love and blessings,
