It's been quite a while since I wrote on here. And there have been adventures to report! I made it to the Museum of Jurassic Technology on Oscar Sunday, checking one more LA museum off the list.
I have identified the sort of fabric I want to make my curtains out of for the living room... more excitement to come on that...
Jen, my lovely assistant, has bravely consented to join me on the trapeze adventure and has requested that we go in April, close to her birthday. My friend Erin has agreed to film for us. Yay!
Also, a client of mine is giving me several personal training sessions right by Silverlake Reservoir, so PERHAPS I might be getting closer to running around that bad boy. A few friends of mine completed the LA Marathon this past weekend, which is amazing, and leads me to believe I can probably squeeze out 2.2 miles. But I'd better do it before it gets too damn hot around here. Will keep you posted.
So what's the Upper Limit issue?
I've been thinking about this a lot thanks to a book I just recently finished, The Big Leap, by Gay Hendricks, which my friend Christina Morassi is doing the awesome video series "30 Days of Genius" on (check it out at www.christinamorassi.com).
Gay Henricks' principle is that we have an inner thermostat for success and joy. We only believe that is possible to have so much of either. So when something amazing happens, we freak out a little bit. Our concept of what we can do or have or be is being challenged and, in order to maintain equilibrium, we close ourselves down. We get sick, or we have a fight with a friend or loved one. We default to keep things familiar, even if we were getting close to a breakthrough to make them amazing.
Sound familiar? I've certainly been watching myself the last few weeks as i move towards hitting new goals and how I have a tendency to become exhausted or sick when this happens.
Hmmm. Does this spark any ideas for any of you? Where is your glass ceiling? Wouldn't it be awesome if we could break through it with our goals and blast out on the other side with a whole new ability to succeed?
I've got an idea in the pipeline for 33 for 33 that would reset my sense of what's possible big time. And I am SO excited... So I'll keep you posted as that unfolds as well.
Sorry to be absent so long. I missed writing here- Remabulous has been keeping me busy, but I want to be true to my roots, too.
Feel free to yell at me if I evaporate again. I could use the reminder!
