There's Some Magic In These Moments

By Evan Sanders


There's some serious pressure.

Lots of pressure. The type of pressure that turns you into something you've never been before. The type of pressure that can crumble you or turn you into something amazing.

Once in a while, your heart can be in great fury. There's a strong pull of wanting to head different directions.

This is a great pressure.

And it can build inside of you for a long time.

I can feel this over my chest, running up through my cheekbones and down the sides of my neck. It's circulating.

It begs you to do whatever you need to do. It begs you to listen to it.

It begs you to change your actions, to drop everything you've ever done before, to let the old pieces of you fall away and to usher in a new era for yourself.

But when you're scared it's hard to dive into this place.

No matter the story we lived in before, you can never go back. You can never go back to the person you once were...and that's perfectly ok.

It's okay to change.

What a strange feeling.

It takes a lot of faith to be able to start a new journey, to leave all of the old stuff behind, and to move on with your life leaving your comfort zones.

To run on faith...blind faith...is the hardest thing to do.

And to drop the fear.

And yet...

Even though you are running on a path that is forming in front of you, it doesn't feel at all unguided.

I'm here writing today, after days and days of thinking about all of this making a commitment to diving into all of it. My commitment goes beyond just writing these words...I've sealed it in many other ways.

Leave everything behind that you have to leave behind.

And step into something that will change your life. Never come back. Never look back.

Logic will tell you to stay in a comfortable place. Your heart will tell you to dive in and give it a shot.

Have faith.

Leave your mind behind and follow your heart.

And trusting I'm headed right where I belong.
