Have you ever wondered how a gymnast stays balanced after doing all the crazy flips?
You can ask that question to Google.
Here’s what came first on my end:
Literally, that means keeping your feet spread widely enough to stay in position.
But just as how wide the word balance encompasses, maintaining a wide base of support could also mean letting each aspect of any area of your life (as a high performer) dominate your life with no space for the other parts of you:
In other words: no rest, no play.
I understand though how hard it can be to acknowledge rest as a part of a high achiever’s life.
For someone like you who does it all:
Taking care of kids,
or the whole family,
Training hard,
Working full time,
Building/growing/managing businesses…
You get the job done even when it’s hard.
You are amazing. And I am proud of you.
But without rest and play:
How do you really feel?
What happens when you’re running out the energy to sustain everything that demands your time, attention, and effort?
Don’t worry, you’re definitely not alone.
Heaps of our girls in SMP used to be in the same place as you.
They were used to constantly ratcheting themselves up and when they tried to land, they just collapsed.
That is why we have this principle:
“The hardest work is knowing when to rest and be playful.”
…Because high standards without self-compassion?
Can easily become unrelenting self-bullying.
Of course, it took them time to fully embrace rest as a virtue.
But it was much faster than doing it alone
because they are following through the best process.
They are loved and cared for by a tribe of powerful women powerfully supporting one another.
and guided by a specialist team of coaches,
who have helped thousands of women become their own shining light.
They have learned to honour the rest.
...so they can live their spirit as they become their BIG vision.
And that is what SMP is all about.
