Changing Gears....

"If you are feeling stuck or frustrated, if your life is not moving fast enough (as fast as you would like it to), know that you are coursing on a ‘neutral’ gear....and it is time to shift gears.

As humans, we wish to move forward as fast as we can; but know that the neutral gear is giving you the necessary pause to assess if you are on the right path.

If you keep complaining about not moving fast enough, (and being stuck or frustrated), you are not using the neutral gear effectively. Perhaps, you are trying to move faster even before you have shifted the gears.

In any case, every gear has its speed limit; so after moving at a happy speed for a while, we begin to feel stuck and need to shift gears again – after an adequate neutral pause.

A seasoned driver uses the ‘neutral’ gear or the pauses of life rather efficiently, shifting the gears with flowing ease – without making any noise.

If your life is making a lot of noise, know that it is time to shift the gears. For every time, our life or our body makes a noise (whines, clanks, coughs, splutters, gets stuck or breaks down), it warns us that we are doing something wrong. Our discomfort tells us that it is time to get into the neutral in order to shift gears."
