Dust Off The Trust G. BRIAN BENSON
I
have a little piece of wood that has the word “trust” painted on it that sits on my desk. I put it there a while back to remind me to continue to trust in the process of my journey. Because from time to time, like anyone else I lose sight of my intentions when things get busy or I am tired and can slide into moments of fear or disillusion.
Take a deep breath and get back to the place of why you started your journey in the first place The other day I did some housecleaning and noticed there was some dust on top of my “trust” block. That got me thinking. Sometimes in life we need to be reminded to wipe off the proverbial dust in our trust process with our goals and intentions. It can be easy to forget as we get caught up with the day-to-day barrage of work and occasional set-backs that can hamper us from remembering to trust in our process and direction that we want to head. I’m no different, even though I have the “trust” block of wood to remind me. I too sometimes forget and get wrapped up in the daily dogma, forget to step off of the hamster wheel and allow some of my fears to come through. Just remember that you were put here for a reason and that reason is 8 | ENTREPRENEUR PLATFORM MAGAZINE | January/February 2020
to share the gift of being you. And as long as you remember that and continue to move forward in being the best version of yourself, you are way ahead of the game. Are you feeling out of sorts? Feeling a little off track and not exactly sure where things are headed? It’s ok. Take a deep breath and get back to the place of why you started your journey in the first place. Try and remember those intuitive hunches that sparked your curiosity and interest. Tap back in to the excitement of starting that new job or project, the creative process and desire to share. In the meantime, slow down and give yourself permission to take a break. Let your cup re-fill. We can’t move forward when there is no fuel to operate with. But most importantly, just like I did with my “trust” block, wipe off the dust of your trust process. Remember your “wins,” and how far you have come. Sometimes things need a bit of seasoning and may take a little longer than we like. Hang in there, you are headed in the right direction and sometimes it just takes a re-set to recapture those feelings and pick up some momentum. Sincerely, “Brian” G.
