I love being a beginner….
I absolutely love being a beginner when I find something I’m dedicated to.
When you feel the call to mastery of an art form and decide you want to understand all there is to know about it… it’s a feeling of awe that spreads deep in my bones. I love that feeling. It’s divine to me.
I feel like a child, gazing up at an immense statue. Or staring at a peak so far off that it feels almost impossible to get to, but you know that all you need to do is show up, enjoy the ride and keep pointing in the direction you want to go and eventually you’ll arrive.
To me, there is so much joy in the discovery of each step, and the exploration of ideas like beautiful flowers along your path that you stop and admire.
In Jiu jitsu there is a saying that a black belt is a white belt that never quits… kind of obvious but I think at times the climb stops us from starting.
Looking at how far away a goal is stops us from starting and forgetting that the journey can be so pleasurable.
I’m a beginner in jiu jitsu, I just started at the end of last year and I feel that the learning curve has impacted every area of my life, as though my brain has opened up to more learning, I’m in absorption mode and things that felt difficult and out of reach suddenly feel as easy as just turning up to training.
We don’t need to do anything other than show up, and be in our state of appreciation to flow.
I’d love your thoughts on being a beginner ❤️
