Almost There
“We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us is something valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch.” – e.e cummings
Perception is a funny thing. Oftentimes, it’s also a reality. And more often then not, our own perceptions are our worst enemies.
Our perceptions tell us that the number on the scale hasn’t moved. The reality? We’ve lost 5% body fat.
Our perceptions tell us that our heels don’t touch the floor in downward dog. The reality? We’re only a quarter of an inch away.
Our perceptions tell us that we’re not good enough, we didn’t respond fast enough or our proposal was too short. The reality? We responded faster than other vendors and our proposal was more professional than all the rest.
Sometimes, we’re almost there, but we can’t see it for ourselves. We need a little bit of help from those around us to shift our perception. Sometimes, it’s a word; sometimes it’s a hand to push us down and show us our heels are thisclose to meeting the floor 
Have you helped someone shift their perception today? Show someone that they really are, almost there.
