The Catalyst of Action

September 15, 2024 | Renée Fishman

No matter how clear your vision, pursuing your dreams and following your soul’s path is a leap into the unknown.

It’s easy to get stuck.

We can spend so much time debating an action in our minds: evaluating the pros and cons, the risks and rewards, the benefits and consequences, without ever moving forward.

The pull of the past — what we know, what’s feels safe, what may be comfortable, remains strong even when we see it’s no longer safe or comfortable.

It only seems safe relative to the mystery of what lies ahead.

Some people stay in suspension between these points for their whole lives: dreaming of what could be if they only had the courage to leave the comfort of what is.

For anyone who moves forward, there comes a point where standing in the crossroads is no longer an option.

The cars are coming toward you at full speed and you must move.

Suddenly, the discomfort and pain of the familiar outweighs the fear of the unknown.

What propels you forward?

Emotion.

You decide that you’ve had enough. That there’s no going back. That you deserve better.

You don’t think about the action.

You don’t talk about the action.

You simply move your body, one step at a time.
