I want to bring you back to something we spent time with in the course.
You are a creator.
Not someday, when you have more confidence, more money, more time, or better circumstances. You are already creating.
You are creating in the conversations you have. You are creating in the conversations you avoid. You are creating in the agreements you make and the agreements you leave unclear. You are creating in how you show up with your team, your family, your partner, and yourself.
You are even creating when you do nothing.
That can be a little confronting, because it means we cannot give ourselves over to the idea that life is just happening to us. There are things that happen that we did not choose, of course. There are circumstances we cannot control. But we are still participating in what gets created next.
That is not blame. It is access.
If you can see that you are participating in the creation of your life, then you can begin to participate differently. You can stop waiting for the situation to change before you change. You can stop waiting for someone else to become different before you become clear about who you are going to be.
Look back over the past month and ask yourself: What have I been creating? What have I been creating in my work? What have I been creating in my relationships? What, and how, have I been creating my own life?
Then ask the more important question: What do I want to create now?
Do not make it a big project. Pick one place. One conversation. One relationship. One agreement. One thing you have been avoiding.
Then create. Pay attention. Observe your own power.
We’ll be back in the ballroom together September 8–12 for the next Create Powerful Course. If you have someone in your life you’d want beside you in this work — a partner, a friend, a family member, a colleague, or a member of your team — invite them.
