Closer we Get

"The closer we get to what we want, the more our old stories find a way to convince us that we DON"T actually want it. The closer we get, the more uncomfortable we feel. For our old stories, personas and identities, change is like a death – so they will cling on and throw everything at you to stave off their inevitable demise. Therefore the more you hear yourself say: “This doesn’t feel right for me” – the more you know you are on the right track. Hold that tension. Trust your heart for bringing you to this point. A Caterpillar lets go of his old form to allow the butterfly to emerge.” Nichola Burton
