Gang Plank or Diving Board?

During the course of our lives we are often faced with transitions and we are forced to choose. Some examples include:

The stock market goes down precipitously; do you buy, or sell?  You've been dating a beautiful person for two years; do you propose marriage, or break up?  Your company offers you a promotion that includes relocation; do take the assignment, or stay put?  Your friend invites you to participate in a business venture with him; do you accept the invitation, or decline?  Another friend invites you to climb a mountain in the spring.  Do you join her, or not?  Your beautiful companion (whom you did marry) wants to start having children.  Do you go for it now, or wait?


I could go on and on.  It's as if we are often faced with walking out onto a precipice overlooking water.  It can sometimes feel like a diving board that we voluntarily climb upon to execute a Triple Lindy into a warm pool of water.  At other times it can feel as if you've been abducted by pirates, and you are being forced at the point of a sword to jump into shark infested waters.

Right now, I, and about 8 of my Co-Active colleagues are facing a similar transition.  We  just completed our 25 week certification program, taken our written exam, had our final call with our pod leader, and are each facing an oral exam in the coming months.  During life transitions like these it can be helpful to access our intuition in order to discern if we're "walking the plank" or doing the "triple lindy"


When we tune into our intuition it’s like activating our extra-sensory perception. We FEEL if the situation is right for us.  We notice what our body tells us. 

THIS IS NOT STINK'IN THINK'IN!  

We access our clear-knowing of what is right for us.  It is only when we trust the images that we perceive in our mind’s eye that we can see the right path.  If you're intuition has been beaten out of you by the industrial education complex, then working with a good Co-Active coach may help you regain your insight.

So, my friends, what's it going to be: "Gang Plank or Diving Board"
