Part 1: "Are you willing to allow your natural genius to show up today?" Hide original message

The question emerged from my gut. A soft voice whispered in my ear, "C'mon girl and listen up. Are you willing to let go of controlling this and that and allow your gut instincts to do their thing? Can you let go of holding back and let your natural genius shine?" This was all before I got out of bed.Standing in my kitchen with coffee in hand I admired the ripe buds on the orchid plant I've been carefully nurturing. Two of the eight had recently popped open. These buds are not holding back, I thought. They are allowing their natural genius to tell them exactly the right time to show up and shine.

For the last thirty years I've been fascinated with human potential and how we either wake up and realize it or allow it to remain dormant. I've come to trust that we have an incredible potential to be happy, healthy, and vibrant. We have an extraordinary genius that is eager to reach up and step out into the world. This intelligence stirs us from the inside all of the time.

The truth is we can't shut off our genius, but we can shut it down, like when we doubt our capacities or worry about outcomes. We close ourselves off when we try to be perfect or think that we are inadequate. While we can't turn off our potential, we can hide from realizing it.

Whenever you doubt, judge, or worry, you're holding back your potential to SHINE. If you get stuck on your own emotional rollercoaster you'll shut yourself off from the brilliance you were born to share.

The truth is that soft voice — your natural genius — is always whispering in your ear, but you may be buzzing along at a speed so fast that you don't hear what it's telling you. So, today slow down, listen and allow your natural genius to show up!
