Cultivating Equal Parts: Striving & Surrender

Written by Kevin Wathey | August 3, 2024

I've figured it out... this pesky being vs. doing belief I wrote about here and here.

Perceived opposing forces that have kept me in contemplation for years.
Turns out, they're not opposing at all.

"Finding your purpose" seems to be ubiquitous.
The root, potentially due to the absence of 'striving' energy.

What tripped me up is the belief that doing prevents you from being.
Yet finding your purpose is doing something that allows you to be more yourself.

"Enjoy being in the process of becoming."

- Unknown

It's equal parts striving and surrender.
Existing in flow while getting the f*ck after it.

The more you 'do' what lights you up, the more momentum you cultivate.
The more momentum you cultivate, the more synchronicities you experience.
The more synchronicities, the more you 'effortlessly' find purpose.

Don't avoid from time under tension... as that's how every muscle is grown.
Sit in it and watch your luck surface area expand.

In last weeks edition, I wrote about — Non-Negotiables: Unlocking Progress

Too much of anything becomes a negative.. the latest in wellness science included.

The question then becomes.. where is the line between consistency, and too much?
