Many people who are successful and accomplished, end up being master REACTORS vs master CREATORS.

What do I mean by that?

Life is constantly throwing things at us to handle and act on, especially if you are an effective, successful person. Sometimes you end up developing the muscle of REACTING really well in certain circumstances. You are able to get stuff done, to be effective in dealing with "stuff". This is obviously not a bad thing, however it is NOT the same as being a MASTER CREATOR and sometimes gets confused as the same muscle.

Being able to CREATE your life on a moment to moment basis has a lot to do with the space FROM which you are living vs what you are actually DOING or even accomplishing

Are you coming from the space of REACTING to:
- life,
- your spouse/partner,
- your employees,
- your boss,
- your neighbor,
- your thoughts or feelings,
- maybe even other people's opinions?

Or, are you actually CREATING the space that you are functioning FROM as an intentional creation that you have THE say over.
​
​While circumstances sometimes may just "happen", the space from which you deal with the circumstances can be CREATED by YOU.
Furthermore, it is like any muscle, you need to start by practicing using that muscle.

THE NEXT TIME YOU EXPERIENCE YOURSELF REACTING TO SOMETHING OR SOMEONE:
1. Ask yourself, what space am I CREATING from which to respond to this situation or person?
(i.e. If you create the space of patience or compassion or impact, ask yourself, 'What would patience, compassion or impact say or do right now?" )
2. Say that or do that.

In the coming week I invite you to simply notice when you are REACTING to life vs CREATING life and begin acting and speaking from a CREATED space, created in your word.
Let me know what you see!

kryp·ton·ite

(krĭp′tə-nīt′)  n. Slang  Something that presents a particular threat to 'one that is otherwise powerful':

In this case YOU ARE THE ONE! You are the ONE that is powerful.

Superman had super powers, including the powers of flight, superhuman strength, x-ray vision, heat vision, cold breath, super-speed, enhanced hearing, and nigh-invulnerability (which means it is almost impossible to injure him in any serious way and yes I had to look that up).

Even with all that power he was "messablewith" by kryptonite, an alien mineral that has the property of depriving Superman of his powers.

Now for Superman Kryptonite was REAL, literally physically real.

I invite you to start to notice what YOUR kryptonite is.

What messes with you? What throws you off your game?

What messes with you may not have the same kind of reality as an alien mineral, it is likely more in the form of thoughts, beliefs, reasons, justifications, feelings etc. but the impact is pretty much the same.

When you start to be able to see what's messing with you, it begins to give you access to dismantling the seemingly SOLID nature of it so that you can develop the ability to go beyond your current limits.

This week:

• Notice your kryptonite and then push it to the side (don't worry it will still be there if you need it)
• after you push it to the side ask yourself, What am I committed to RIGHT NOW?
• after you answer that question ask yourself What action would support fulfilling on what I want RIGHT NOW?
• then TAKE THAT ACTION.

Score some victories against your kryptonite this week and begin to develop the muscle of being UNMESSABLEWITH.
