I have an indoor plant sitting next to my kitchen sink that’s on the side of a window.
About half of the plant’s branches see sunlight and the other half doesn’t.
Earlier this week, as I went to wash the dishes, the growth imbalance was impressively noticeable. It honestly looked as though the plant might tip into the sink because of how long the branches reached on the sunshine side.
So, I spun it 180 degrees.
Glancing at it today, I was blown away at how quick its response was.
All of the little buds that were poking out from the branches on the old sunshine side have been effectively cancelled and tons of new little buds on the new sunshine side have been commissioned.
No hesitation.
Imagine if we were able to elicit such a quick response in our lives, too?
Does your work feel like it’s suddenly in (or heading towards) darkness? Does it feel like one of your sunshine relationships is setting? Is one of your favorite group activities coming to a sad conclusion?
Maybe this 180 degree turn is an opportunity for you to become more balanced. Maybe it’s an opportunity for you to invest in new branches and find new, fresh sources of sunshine. Maybe it’s happening for a reason and your resistance, complaints, and hesitation is precisely what’s keeping you in the darkness…
When all you have to do is redirect your energy and resources towards the new light.
