Last night, a group of beautiful women gathered in my home, making it theirs for the evening. One of these inspired, beautiful-inside-and-out women shared the following about being in a feeling of void:

“To change, we must go through a transition zone. It’s not easy being in transition. Thoughts, beliefs and habits are all in flux. It can create a sense of groundlessness, of being in a void that can be quite uncomfortable.

When we’re in the void, our first impulse will be to revert to old habits because they feel comfortable. Our goal is to hang in there until the change is complete. Knowing that transitions are part of the change process helps us muster the courage to put up with the discomfort, the uneasiness, the void.

Change requires a letting go of what we’ve always known and done to allow in something new. we need to trust ourselves and higher forces to unfold a new reality for us.”

I’m not sure who wrote these words and I thank you, whoever you are. Here is a quote by Dan Millman, former world-champion athlete, university coach, martial arts instructor, and college professor whose books include Way of the Peaceful Warrior, Journeys of Socrates, and The Life You Were Born to Live…

“When we feel stuck, going nowhere, even starting to slip backward, we may actually be backing up to get a running start.”
