Have you ever wanted to try something new, but you don't know what the outcome is going to be, or you expect the outcome to be the way you want it to be, but it doesn't happen. We all have a vision. We see the end but don't want to deal with the journey. Our social media presents this image that people have it all and don't deal with problems and is just happy all the time. Not saying social media is bad but our perception can fool us. The beauty of the process is that we can be a crash test dummy. I know you're thinking why I would want to be a crash test dummy. For those that remember the commercials back in the 80s, there was two guys that were crash test dummies promoting awareness to wear your seatbelt. They would drive a 100 mph and crash into a wall. The car would be destroyed but they would be in the car with their seatbelts on and would say " well lucky we wore our seatbelts".
That is how we have to face life. Put your seatbelt on and drive. Yes, you will crash and hit bumps along the way but lucky you, you are wearing your seatbelt. Fear prevents us from taking the detour during the journey because we want to stay straight ahead and don't look back. The detour may be longer, but it is needed for you to learn a lesson, do some personal growth, or add to the process. When you hit that bump or crash along the way, just stand back and say, " well at least I had my seatbelt on!" Reverse and keep on driving. You may have to deal with a couple of crashes and bumps along the way, but that seatbelt won't let you die. Okay you might bump your head, have a couple of starches, but what's that old saying, " if it doesn't kill it will make you stronger."
I want you to drive toward your goal in life. Let the GPS (a

ka God/universe) guide you through....Trust the Process. Not one successful people in history has made it through life without being a crash test dummy but at least they had on their seatbelt.
Write down in the comments what goals and desires do you have in your life? Do you have your seatbelt on!
