Pick a Different Starting Point

Sometimes the way forward is to simply pick a different starting point.

Sometimes I get stuck in my writing. I put my book 'Active Surrender' on pause over the holidays not just because I didn't have space to write, but also because I was stuck.

I was stuck in the middle of the 3rd chakra of trust: Power. It felt forced. Quite frankly, I think the section may be complete but I mentally I wanted to make it more robust and well rounded. I had a list of stories to add and dammit, I would add those and complete the section before moving on.

This morning I remembered that if I'm forcing it, the words won't come, my creativity will be silenced and what comes out won't have the power I desire in my books. What a lesson in that 3rd chakra right? To surrender to my own power means to not force it out of me.

So I gave myself permission to work on a totally different section... the 4th chakra of trust: Give & Receive. And it's pouring out of me, channeled connection, scribbling with tears in my eyes.
