✹ We were never designed to control it all.
I’ve been learning this in my own journey. I’ve spent so much energy trying to build everything right: excellent, polished, organized, top-notch. Making the right decisions. Anticipating what’s next. Holding everything together.
But the more we accumulate: success, knowledge, credentials, money, influence, the more we believe we have it all under control. And we can still find ourselves restless, depleted, and unfulfilled.
✦ The answer isn’t always more. Sometimes it’s release.
Release the need to have it all figured out. Release the pressure to hold everything together.
There is a Designer who sees what we cannot. Living by design requires trusting the Designer.
Release is not resignation. It is trust. Trusting the Master Planner enough to loosen our grip.
This is at the heart of Becoming Golden: moving beyond the layers we’ve accumulated to uncover who we were designed to be.
As you begin this week:
What are you ready to release?
