How to cross the threshold into agency and encounter unfamiliar ground.
Not just once will we cross the threshold into agency. We must cross it repeatedly until we are finally ready to encounter the unknown. There are a few ways to do that.
Not just once will we cross the threshold into agency. We must cross it repeatedly until we are finally ready to encounter the unknown.
That’s why we need to become comfortable with uncertainty. Only then can we realize the huge opportunities that lie on unfamiliar ground.
There are a few ways to do that:
Rationalize your fear
Assess what can truly happen. Then, ask yourself if you are able to deal with it. The answer will always be yes. You have been equipped since birth with everything you need for this challenge.
Work with resistance
Figure out which beliefs and ideas hold you back. Understand them, dissolve them. And then move ahead.
Work from vision and faith
Open up to the dream you carry. Allow it to take shape in your mind and let its power work with your fear. Return to your dream and hand your fears over whenever that fear arises.
Discover the uncertain
Mark a space in your room. Call it "the uncertain". And then discover it by simply walking through it. If there's a place you are drawn to, go. Try to cross the borders. Let yourself be surprised by what will show up.
Uncover yourself
Get in touch with yourself. Ask your fear what it wants to tell you about yourself. Be curious and allow your inner self to talk to you. It may take a while for the answer to arrive, but it will be a powerful one.
Ask for guidance
The universe is here to support you. Hand over your fears and sorrows and ask for guidance. Be grateful for the inner transformation that will arise.
You’ll need a boat to cross a river. But it won’t help you on the mountain on the other side of the shore. Every part of your journey equips you with what you need. All you must do is: trust.
