“Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion.” — Rumi

One of our biggest roadblocks as creators is this notion that we are not WHOLE. That we are missing something that everyone around us seems to have. That we are NOT, in some way, “enough.”

Not _____ enough — you fill in the blank. Not good enough, not smart enough, not prepared enough, not well-known enough. Not strong or capable or well-read or pretty or thin or wealthy or able-bodied or free or ready enough.

But you are EXACTLY enough.

You are EXACTLY enough to do what YOU need to do.

Stop comparing yourself to others and focusing on what you think they have that you don’t — what you think you lack.

EVERYONE secretly worries that they’re not _____ enough. Even the famous and successful people. But it doesn’t stop them. Don’t let it stop you, either.

You are EXACTLY ENOUGH to write your novel, compile your memoirs, or create your podcast. You are full and complete in your YOU-ness, and THAT is what the world needs. Not some perceived lack.

Shift your focus from what you think you lack to what you know you have. You will find that you have everything you need within you to create.

In the words of the poet Rumi: “Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion.”

You are exactly, 100%, ENOUGH.

Words & warmth,
