Remember in The Little Mermaid when Ariel and Prince Eric are floating in the blue lagoon? Everything is perfect - the music, the lighting, the mood.....when suddenly, the boat flips. Remember?!?!? Just like that, the moment passes. Gone. Ariel is left a soggy mess without a kiss and no voice.
This happens to us - ALL THE TIME.
We are given moments of clarity, hits of inspiration, gut feelings, intuitive guidance etc. etc....but if we don't act on these in the moment, more often than not, the moment passes. That great idea gets lost in a sea of thoughts, the action we know we need to take gets added to another to-do list and buried in our phone notes, the people we wanted to call or text get forgotten about until the next time they pop into our mind.
And when this keeps happening, it becomes more than just “a missed moment.” It becomes a pattern. A way of life. And suddenly, you wake up wondering where your time—and your spark—went.
I don’t want that for you. I don’t want that for me, either.
So in today’s episode, we’re getting real about those fleeting moments of inspiration—and how to stop letting them slip through your fingers.
