GIVE Yourself Permission to ASK The Expert!

by Carrie on January 8, 2010

Letter from Carrie Strathman Jacobs:
Wow, I learned my lesson the hard way last night! It was 5:30 PM; I was just leaving the veterinarian after picking up dog food on my way home for our dear dog Frodo, a black and tan Cocker Spaniel. I get in my car, put the key in the ignition and push the button. Nothing! Then the steering wheel lock up and I get this little red steering wheel symbol on my dash with a red line through it! What the heck is that?! I cannot get my fabulous, reliable BMW xi with the special winter package to take me home! Long story short, after calling my boyfriend to get me out of the cold and moving around to various warm places to wait around for three hours, I am safe and sound in my warm homes! I am a bit rattled with a loaner car in my garage.

Is there a metaphor here for life!? I think there is! Deny your ego, don’t wait for to be stranded in your car when it to be 8* outside to learn to: ask the experts for help!!! I saw a yellow indicator light on earlier in the week that I didn’t recognize and I just thought I would figure it out eventually. Well, my eventually came sooner than I thought! In that temperature, there is no time for waiting, or much else for that matter besides pulling out (thank you God!) my cell phone and call my trusted customer service Expert #1, Jake at the dealership! He connects me with roadside service who sends out not one, but two different tow trucks! Since the steering was locked, they had to send out; you guessed it, Expert # 2, a towing specialist! There are only 3 tow trucks in town that can move a car that has locked steering. And of course only a few experts who know how to take the time and care to get my car rigged up and moving down the road behind the tow truck.

Quote
As you start the first full work week of the New

Year you should do no ‘work’ at all.

The point of your activities throughout the day is not to

make a living, but to make a life; This is a small twist on a Maya Angelo saying. not to ‘work’ but to

create joy. If you are doing what you are doing merely

to ‘pay the bills,’ you will have missed the major reason

for All of Life.

The purpose of life is to know and express Who You

Are. If you do other than that during

your life, you will have not used those days and times

in a way that profits your soul. It is soul profit we are

after here, not dollar profit.

This first week of the New Year is perfect time to

contemplate this. ~ Neale Donald Walsch

As visionary entrepreneurs, we are always looking for fuller expression of ourselves through a deeper understanding and expression of our life’s purpose on this planet. Our personal evolution is ongoing. Become a part of this movement to leave the world a better place!
