Hi there,
I'm Yana Langford and today I wanted to talk about being ready,
Readiness and my thoughts on this whole concept of ready.
We often associate it with a feeling like I want to feel ready and in some ways it's a little bit misleading.
The official definition of ready is being fully prepared.
Now for things around life can we ever be fully prepared?
Can we ever be fully prepared for motherhood,
Committing to a long term relationship?
What is being fully prepared?
And instead of being ready or waiting to be ready,
Preparing to be ready,
I like to take the lens and ask,
Can I be open too?
And it's in this openness that opportunity arises.
It's through openness that we receive the support to allow us to take the steps that we need to move forward.
So I guess for today I just wanted to remind us,
We keep saying,
I'm going to wait until I'm ready.
I'm not sure if I'm ready.
But instead,
Let's see if we can reframe it and ask,
Can I be open too?
And then just being curious and seeing what happens.
I think you'll be amazed at what unfolds when you allow yourself to be open.
Thank you for joining me and listening.
