Manifestation teacher Abraham-Hicks has a phrase she often uses: “ready to be ready.”
I never fully understood what that meant until now.
Ready to be ready, for me, means I’m always working on myself. I’m always moving closer and closer to who I desire to be.
And as I journey along, becoming the best version of myself a little at a time, I am readying myself for what’s to come… the dreams and desires I’ve felt and seen a vision of for so long.
For example, my ultimate writing dream is to see my novels/stories turned into movies on the big screen and streaming all over the world.
That is a dream I’ve had and felt and seen since I was 11 years old (minus the streaming part as that {cough} wasn’t a thing back then).
But at age 11, I wouldn’t have been ready for that dream. I couldn’t have handled it.
Hell, I couldn’t have handled that dream happening in my 20s or even my 30s.
I wasn’t ready. BUT—it was during those years I was getting ready TO BE ready.
It was during those years I learned how to write a novel. And learned how to follow thru and finish. And to do that over and over again.
It was during those years I studied and worked hard at learning how to tell a damn good story. The thousands of hours I dedicated to watching movies and breaking down story structure and really trying to understand how to put it all together cohesively.
It was during those years I wrote four screenplays (one of which placed as a semi-finalist in a contest), two novels (one of which is published), and three novellas (two of which are published) plus countless short stories.
It was during those years I fought to overcome my inner demons, mindset issues, old patterns, procrastination, imposter syndrome, feeling not good enough, and so many other things.
It was during those years I created a habit of writing and of doing what I needed to do to keep moving forward in my author business.
And it was during those years I became the woman who could mentally, physically, spiritually, and in all ways be able to handle my ultimate writing dream eventually coming true.
Where I’m at now, Hollywood could come knocking tomorrow and I know I could fully trust myself to handle whatever comes with it and go all the way.
By getting ready to be ready, I am now ready.🔥
So, now I turn the 🎤 over to you… are you ready to be ready for what you desire and dream of? If it showed up tomorrow, would you be ready?
Or, would you self-sabotage, doubt yourself, play small, make up excuses, or maybe even opt out completely? 🤔
