Have You Cut The Cords Yet?
Written by Rosemary Nonny Knight
Everywhere you look, you are surrounded by the familiar…
Things and people that have been around you since forever…
It is all so the same
And yet, you feel different inside
You feel called to follow through on a particular call, a particular purpose
And it is unlike anything that anyone in your current existence has ever done and they think you are a little loopy…
You wonder if you are, as well!
HAVE YOU CUT THE CORDS YET?
Deep in your spirit, heart and soul, you know you are born for more than the norm…
You know that there is a message pumping deep within you that needs to be delivered on the world and yet, every day, you go through the motions of living the same old, same old life…
You turn up at the same old job — I know it has a nice prestigious title and so it feels silly to consider leaving it behind, after all the effort you put into getting there and OMG, what will the family say?!
You turn up at the same old church — you give them your time because that is what people like you, do. You give back, right? Ain’t nothing wrong with that, is there?!
You do what others do in their spare time — Watch a little TV, maybe get some gardening done in your nice house that you have fought hard to get, tidy up, keep it clean and try to be satisfied…
All the while, in your heart of hearts is the knowledge that your life is passing you by and all the big ideas, the dreams, the BIG VISION you have is simply not happening…
And you tell yourself that you just cannot do it now…
After all, there’s the children…
The extended family…
The partner…
The friends who have placed you in a nice tidy box…
But really, HAVE YOU CUT THE CORDS YET?
You still long too much to be accepted by people…
You have not yet made a solid commitment to your vision…
Because if you had, your every move, your every action would be taking you there…
Right now, you have bought into the lie that it is not practical…
And that the timing is wrong…
And honey, it is as though you don’t want to figure out how to make it practical because you have all these old ideas about what you are allowed to do and what you are not allowed to do…
Why not be open to new ways of doing things?
Why not get over all your limiting beliefs and open yourself up to the possibility that you need to cut the cords COMPLETELY to your old way of thinking, being, acting?
YOu scared, right?
You created a cushy existence and you think you might lose it and so you will lay down your calling in order to maintain it, right?
And you will tell yourself that it is for your family, it is because you must be responsible…
YOu might even make it seem spiritual — Telling yourself that you must sacrifice what you want to do in order to do what you MUST do! And then tell yourself that that is what God wants from you…
And yet, the hunger in you remains
The darkness always at the edge as you wonder if this is it…
And I ask you this…
Why the heck do you think that your Higher Power would plant a vision inside of you, one that makes you hungry for more, and then make it impossible for you to figure out a way to live out the calling while taking care of your responsibilities?
What kind of love would that be?
CUT THE CORDS to your old way of thinking
CUT THE CORDS to being the same as everyone around you
CUT THE CORDS deliberately
OPEN yourself up to all possibilities!
OPEN YOURSELF UP TO opportunities!
OPEN YOUR EYES!
There is a call on your life and there is a way to make it happen while being responsible…
The transition may be scary but you must trust that there really is abundance all around and it is more than enough FOR YOU!
YOU LEAD THE CHARGE to find another way to design life…
You be the History Maker that helps your people to see that there is another way to make the dreams in your heart come to pass while still taking care of business!
Dare to deliberately design the life you are born to live…
Because you really do want to.
