10. Am I choosing from my divinity OR am I choosing from my humanity?
Another great question... In this instance, in this moment, am I choosing the high road or the low road? Am I choosing from my humanity with all of its fears and insecurities... or am I choosing from my divinity? In the book, Debbie talks about choosing from my humanity as leading to outer success but inner mess! Feeling empty and exhausted and ultimately unfulfilled. It's the difference between seeing the small picture (from our humanity) and the big picture (from our divinity). Our humanity has many of our gifts and talents to share, but it is also where our fears and limitations show up. What would my life look like today if I were to stop surviving and to really start thriving? What is my vision for me life... the vision that inspired me as a younger person, the vision that somehow got lost in the hustle and bustle of surviving life??
In all of this... in these 10 questions, we can't go it alone. It always helps to have a coach, someone who encourages us when we are faltering, keeps our vision before us and cheers us when we are on track. Someone who calls on our greatness when we would be content to stay in our smallness. Who is your coach? Could be a friend or co-worker...
This is a great little book! And I think I'm going to have sticky notes posted around the office and at home with the different questions... calling me to choose the higher path... The author says there are no extraordinary people... only ordinary people who make extraordinary choices. People who wake up from their routine and who choose something different other than the same old same old...
