Transcript
- 0:00Love yourself enough to fail, love yourself enough to fail.
- 0:08If you want to go after something and you put all the worth of that effort
- 0:15contingent on how well it goes, how much you succeed, how successful you are,
- 0:19how many followers you gain or how much money you make.
- 0:23That's not self-love. Self-love is saying,
- 0:28my soul is speaking to and through me in my desire to take this step, to make this decision,
- 0:35to make this offering to the collective. And I am so committed and devoted to honoring
- 0:42my soul's truth. That whatever happens next, I love myself so much that I refuse to betray
- 0:51what I know is true for me. I refuse to not allow myself to step into a path that I know
- 1:01was handmade for me. I honor my truth and I am willing to even be humiliated, to be embarrassed,
- 1:10to feel cringed, to feel annoying in order to honor what seeks to be expressed through me.
- 1:18I don't have to understand why. I don't have to over-analyze and over-strategize. I only need
- 1:24to trust that there is a creative energy and a creative intelligence that is seeking to collaborate
- 1:31with me and to be expressed through me. And I'm going to honor that. I'm going to honor the universe
- 1:38or the cosmos or source or God or Allah, whatever I believe in, honor my inner child, my highest
- 1:45self, whatever is my understanding. I'm honoring what guides me and I'm living the life
- 1:54that lives me because life is a mystical and mysterious thing, my darling. We are not only living,
- 2:02but it feels like something is living us. There are ways that we are living and healing ourselves
- 2:08that we don't even fully understand. There is a force within us that is looking out for us
- 2:14on a somatic level and we could also feel on a spiritual level for me that is my feeling
- 2:20that we can never fully understand and so the life living you it wants to live a full life.
- 2:26It wants to live fully expressed and that is why when we don't fully understand a step that we
- 2:33feel called to take, we should still take that step. We should still honor our curiosity even
- 2:38and probably especially when it doesn't make sense, not even to us and especially not to other people
- 2:45because we are not here to make sense. Nothing divine in the cosmos is a poem is not here to make sense.
- 2:54A beautiful sunset is not here to make sense. The oceans, the trees, an inexplicable reality is not here
- 3:02to make sense. Nothing that's fully accepted in its full beauty and capacity and divinity and
- 3:10magic, nothing accepted in its fullest magnificence is required to make sense and we would not
- 3:16ask that of it because it is reductive. So please my love, love yourself enough to fail,
- 3:23love yourself enough to be embarrassed, love yourself enough to feel humiliated by the step
- 3:29that you're taking but to see the vision so clearly for yourself that you insist on taking it.
- 3:35I believe the people who end up living their dreams in terms of temperament, a small aspect of
- 3:40that is being able to hold the frequency of humiliation, to post the video in front of people
- 3:47who may not be commenting or who may be cringing at you to withstand the judgment of your friends
- 3:53and family. That is so brave and that takes so much self love and so much trust in something bigger
- 4:00that you are calling in and that you know you are working towards and other people just do not see
- 4:05it. Their visions are not where yours are. So the 3D reality is still waiting to catch up with you.
- 4:12What will you allow yourself to be embarrassed by because it's a form of deep self love just as
- 4:18if you had a child who sought to express themselves would you hide the child and say no no no you
- 4:23can't because what if people laugh at you or would you say yes I'm going to be there cheering for
- 4:26you and in the beginning I say this to so many of my creative coaching clients. In the beginning
- 4:31of a creative pursuit you are in the very brave and vulnerable position of being both the only
- 4:38person on the stage and the only person in the audience and you need to be the most loving obnoxiously
- 4:45supportive audience member that you have ever been to yourself you need to write yourself love
- 4:49letters I do that to myself almost every day you need to divinely repair and yourself you need to
- 4:54be so proud of the fact that you are taking a step at all because that is so brave and because
- 5:00the collective is dreaming through you something that I always name and say I call it the principle
- 5:05of collective dreaming and is the idea that your dreams are not merely your own but the collective
- 5:10dreaming through you if you dream of singing there are people who dream of your music
- 5:16if you dream of teaching there are students who dream of your lessons the collective is dreaming
- 5:24through you please believe in us enough to learn the lessons you will need to learn in order to
- 5:31become who you need to become and those lessons will involve failure and we are so grateful it is
- 5:37so generous of you to believe in us so much that you're willing to fail be humiliated be embarrassed
- 5:44in service of this vision you have not just for you but for us we believe in you even though it
- 5:51feels like everyone is against you you have not yet met your everyone the world is so much bigger
- 5:57than your friends and family who are judging you babes so much bigger and many of them are not
- 6:03judging you many of them will be inspired by you many of them will seek advice and support from you
- 6:08many of them are trying to do the same thing that you may be trying to do and are similarly projecting
- 6:13fear onto you we project our worst imaginations onto each other that is how they've alienated us
- 6:19from our highest possibilities from each other which is love so can you be a source of unconditional
- 6:26support and love to yourself in the beginning moments where it matters the most can you be the most
