The Worst Action IS Inaction

Paralyzed by fear unable to form a complete sentence she sat there staring at her computer. Type!Type! Type! But she could not will herself to do so..Type Type Type! The voice in her head grew louder. Type! Finally she had succumbed to her minds request.

Is this you? I know it me at times ..Paralyzed by the amount..time..energy... and effort it takes to write or take action so much so I just freeze. Yikes! 10 years from now I don't want to look back and think:  man wish I had taken the plunge on this. But sometimes well most of the time  we get in our own way. Paralyzed by making a mistake because we can't control mistakes. Nurses are notorious for this . Our profession makes us paranoid into perfectionism given the weight of our nursing duties. this perfectionism leads us to carry it in other aspects of our lives. " You're not holy ghost Jr" I can hear my mentor saying. And she's right.  You and I are not the Holy Sprint, God ,or any other supernatural being. Now the Holy Spirit can live inside us if we allow Him too but we are not omnipresent only God is. So let it go!!!!!

Let go of perfect and start living your life. Do your very best and let God handle the rest. 

How to Let Go and Let God:

1. Pray. A lot of heartache and anguish can be avoided by praying.
2. Trust the process. Trust that He heard your prayer.He with answer it according to His will. Live in that truth.
3. Give it time. Some things don't happen overnight or instanaeously!
4. Let it go. Once you do the above walk in the Light and live with love.

Take care,

Love Letters to a Nurses Soul: Take the plunge!!!!

Dear Nurse,

Well its been awhile seven months but who's counting. I've been sort of busy..you know having a baby and stuff but no bigggie. In my free time...that's an oxymoron in my time not spent with my child and family I've been taking the plunge lately. In business and life you have to go for the gusto. If you don't someone else will and next year you'll be sitting here reading about it. Lets not let that happen. We only live once on this planet and we might as well make the best of it. Stop waiting to live(tweet) the time is now. your time is now. Plan for your future now! Prepare for 2015 now. Do you see where I'm going with this. I believe in you but you need to believe in yourself. Lets make this year so freak-in awesome all we can do is look back and say wow I am blessed by all the amazing experiences I've had !Thank you God for my blessings!!!

Until next time 

Love,

Kimberly
