“Trust the wait. Embrace the uncertainty. Enjoy the beauty of becoming. When nothing is certain, anything is possible”
MANDY HALE
We face uncertainty every day when we crawl out of bed. We tend to have a ritual of habits that give us comfort from going to the bathroom, brushing our teeth, and washing our face. These rituals are predictable; we go into automatic and get those things done. Uncertainty brings about anxiety and stress when fear arises around whether we can handle a situation that is not predictable or familiar to us.
There lies an opportunity to trust ourselves. Trust the intention and the effort put into achieving the desired outcome. Even though all the efforts may be in, there can be a wait – on other people, processes, or actions. Trust requires patience. Patience is a skill set that needs to be practiced. To be patient is to accept that there may be delays or unexpected events that do not bring an immediate result.
When you can embrace the uncertainty of the outcome, you can allow yourself to trust that everything is falling into the right place at the right time. I remember when I was writing my second book, The Entrepreneurial Mom’s Guide to Growing a Business, Raising a Family, and Creating a Life You Love, I was focused on meeting deadlines; I grew impatient with myself at times. My publisher said, “Debra, a book is always ready when it is ready.” Those words have stuck by me for many other times in my life. I could attempt to rush and force things to happen and no matter how much I did, those things still unfolded at their own times. Now, I have to simply remind myself, “It will be ready when it is ready and not a second more.” Why not take a step back and watch how things unfold? You may be amazed to witness the people, place, signs, and things that fall into place. There are no coincidences – only discoveries of pure serendipity.
The best part about uncertainty is there is no certainty. Nothing is definite and everything is possible.
Uncertainty can be a blessing for you to make possible what you want to see!
Believe it. Create Your Own Certainty – Go Ahead – Make It Possible.
Allow and Just Breathe.
