Your Calling Card

Somewhere between then and now I stopped to think about what it would take to interrupt the self-feeding, cyclical currents that keep a person arrested in development, time, and prevents them from fully realizing their 'mission'. Motivation has shifted and will continue to shift like a glacier. We've all been waking up for a long time and with each hot drought, the awakening becomes more pronounced.

So, to the subject line. What's on your Calling Card? One woman I met recently is, "a mom of 3 who just can't get a break from cleaning toilets, making lunches, tangling with her ex-husband and being over weight and trying to be the best wife she can to a supportive, adoring husband". She wears it like a badge of honor almost and as much as she feels she can't turn loose of it, she hangs on to it white-knuckle.

That's a helluva calling card. What if her calling card read, "Loyal, Confident, Capable, Honest, Brilliant, Charismatic, and Cherished"? What if she started there?
