Rev. Patrick weaves a powerful message, speaking from The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks and referring to the poetry and writing of David Whyte. Whyte says there are three reactions we can have to events in our lives: we deny what's happened, we tell a story about how we are a victim, or we can be conscious enough to look it in the eye. At times, we feel like we're on a plateau, but that's where we do a lot of our learning, where we learn to live in our genius.
Living in your genius is not doing more; it's simply doing what is true to you. It's finding deep rest. It's looking your situation in the face. As French philosopher Camus said, "Always live close to tears."
The Ultimate Success Mantra: "I expand in abundance, success, and love every day as I inspire those around me to do the same."
