“I don’t force, I flow; I don’t control, I create; I don’t chase, I attract; I don’t hustle, I take aligned action; I don’t play small, I choose to expand,” Dr. Claudia Thompson. This world will run you ragged if you let it so having the appropriate mindset is key. We have to know and honor our power, believe in who we are, believe in ourselves enough to go after the things that call to us. Asserting power is not the same as forcing or control. The intent behind each action is different—and the key to knowing the difference is to feel it.. We use this mantra to let go. It is in the letting go that we can expand. I think we are afraid to let go because we are afraid we will expand so much we won’t be able to contain it all, that we will somehow drift away—that we can’t manage/control it. But we are meant to be expansive, we are meant to play big and show all facets of who we are. So when we feel trapped or unsure of the next move to make, remember this mantra and take aligned action. Allow ourselves to take up the space we need. Let everything we need come to us. Say it over and over again, remember it, live it.
