Your Compelling Call

It is not decided by votes what is true; otherwise we could never come to any truth, ever. People will vote for what is comfortable — and lies are very comfortable because you don’t have to do anything about them, you just have to believe. Truth needs great effort, discovery, risk, and it needs you to walk alone on a path that nobody has traveled before. Osho

Those who create great shifts, start a movement or spark breakthroughs, walk along the path of the unknown. Some may consider that you need great courage to choose to walk where no one treads. It ain’t necessarily so.

It’s not about courage and conviction, it’s more about what’s compelling. Something beckons to you, silently or forcefully, that you must say “YES” to. It doesn’t matter if there’s any physical confirmation that this is the road to take. You don’t flinch when others don’t see it your way. There is something that you know, even when you don’t have any evidence. It’s as if your body moves you, of its own will, along a trajectory that propels you to an unknown destination. You just know that you must.

So it’s not about mustering up anything, it’s about following the energy of what calls to you at your core. It may not be comfortable, it may be downright unpleasant, but you can’t just say “No.”

Where is that compelling call leading you today?
