This week has been ROUGH over here at Mara Belzer HQ.
If only there were some place we could order a dropper full of confidence and clarity! Take 4 drops 3x a day and you’d be set š
Mine would probably be made from the energetic vibration of the tears my three year old self shed five lifetimes ago when that dog bit my foot and I ended up with a marking on my first chakra.
Alas, being an entrepreneur is super painful sometimes and blocks can be tricky. And the only thing you can really do is just wade through the thoughts and feelings while attempting to keep the collateral damage to a minimum.
For me that means calling on my arsenal of friends and coaches and handholding otters so I don’t float out to sea.
AND completely getting away from my business and doing fun stuff until I am *actually* having fun.
Yesterday, between fits of hysterical crying, I went to my storage unit to look for some watercolor paper. I’ve been nomadic for the past two years so looking for stuff in there is like sorting through a time capsule.
I found my old sketchbooks from art school. They reminded me that I’ve had a propensity towards the weird since… forever.
Here's a drawing I did of a slug watching tv.
Here's my interpretation of a house cat back from when I was really into house music. Over on the left you can see evidence of my obsession with label makers.
I also found the snakes which you can read all about in my post about the snakes.
Snakes!
This trip down memory lane helped me see that my life is much bigger than any existential crisis.
Life flows in waves and sometimes when you’re at the bottom of the wave, it’s hard to remember that pretty soon you’ll be back on top of the world, having a grand ole time, and feeling stronger for that dip.
Here's my three year old self from this lifetime enjoying the heck out of toothless smiles and nature.
Ok, so… the next time you find yourself in an entrepreneurial rut, you haveĀ permissionĀ to take a break and do something that reminds you of who you really are.
Because you are SO MUCH MORE than the number of clients you have or amount of dollars in your bank account or number of likes on Facebook. Ā <– click to tweet that!
You are amazing with or without.
