Note to Self 📝

In the middle of Friday-ing, here’s what I’m fighting to remember:

⠀
Growth happens in the middle of the mess. Don’t expect the process to be organised and don’t worry when everything seems completely scattered.
⠀⠀⠀
The analogy that comes to mind is moving house: you have to scatter your tidy home, fold everything into a moving van and then start to rearrange your valuables into the new place.
The process is stressful and long and tiring, everything seems disorganised and confusing, but the gift of a home is evidence of progress.
⠀⠀
Or how stressful and expensive and emotionally stretching it can be to plan a wedding, when the blessing of the marriage is priceless.
⠀
In the middle of the “middle”, labour to enter that place of rest: where you focus on the progress and the opportunities you’ve been gifted with, rather than on the stress you’re experiencing in the moment.
⠀
Just take a moment to be thankful and have a great weekend!
