Are you sacrificing your Make moments for Break Moments?
In my last post, I spoke about accessing the massive amount of magic we leave on the table each day: mundane magic. Today, I want to demystify a connected fallacy that was also rampant in my life.
Let’s use a common scenario to explain it. I’m sure you know what it’s like when you want to get in shape, so you’re busy trying to find the next new diet or exercise regime that will finally work and thereby change you once and for all. And while we ALL know that for most, this journey is so frickin’ fundamental — what and how much you eat, alongside how much you exercise — we still prefer to believe that our inability to keep up the habit is because the habit is failing and not us. We convince ourselves that we haven’t yet found the super-powered secret (that someone’s holding out on us), but as soon as we find it, we’re going to get the bodies we want — forever!
As insensible it sounds, this fallacy exists for every single thing worth pursuing in our lives. We keep waiting for the massive, life-changing plot twist where there is a distinct before-and-after in our minds, and suddenly the soul-wrestling ends as it all finally comes together for us.
And the truth is, this madness can actually happen! 🤫 There could be a massive, life-changing plot twist that gives you exactly what you needed to be able to access your best self. But there’s a catch: moments like those tend to be the ones that painfully BREAK us into alignment.
Will it take a horrible disease to get you to live a healthier life? Will it take severe depression for you to finally pursue the dreams within your soul?
I’m sure you get the point.
Our lives are a never-ending make-or-break scenario, and the choice is forever ours. The more I’ve chosen to make my moments matter with healthier choices for my body, mind, and spirit — mundane magic ✨ — the less life has needed to break me into doing the exact thing I always needed to do.
Life will respond to your desires. It will bring make-or-break choices to you all day, every day. Don’t wait for the things that will break you into change. Make the mundane moments count. ✨
