There's Some Magic In These Moments

By Evan Sanders


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 huge pressure.

And it can build 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's begging me to do what I know I can.

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.

It's perfectly fine to never go back to the person you once were. It's perfectly fine to live in a completely new story and to change everything about yourself.

It's fine to live in that place.

What a strange feeling.

To know what you have right now is good but to be asked by something to drop that for something you cannot see, cannot even fathom or can hardly put into words...

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

And to drop the fear.

And yet...

Even though you are running into the future blind, 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.

But as I'm writing all of this right now, I know that there are going to be pieces of me that leave...

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 big amounts of faith.

Leave your mind behind.

And trusting I'm headed right where I belong.
