It’s important to listen.
To others – yes, most certainly. It’s a sign of respect to listen well, and fully.
But it’s a sign of self-respect to listen most closely to yourself.
And trust that inner voice that says, “now”.
The voice that says:
Rest, and do it now.
Speak, and do it now.
Walk, and do it now.
Run, and do it now.
At this very moment, my inner guidance is saying, “Be still. Be still, and do it right now.”
There’s some urgency to this stillness.
Like, “be still, Michele, until the tiger passes.
”
Be still.
And observe.
Watch.
Learn.
Learn whatever you can in the stillness.
Then – you’ll know when the time is right – move.
So, I am.
Being still.
And preparing for when the time is right.
When the time is right to move.
Like a tiger myself.
