Do you view life as a maze, full of challenges and competition OR as a labyrinth, an opportunity to find yourself along the path?
A maze is designed to confuse you and test your ability to solve the challenge of getting to the centre.
A labyrinth is unicursal, designed with one single path that always leads to the centre.
The Labyrinth at Rivendell
You are not born on one path or the other.
You get to choose your path.
Every single day.
Rational, logical, competitive, pressured ==> You’re in the maze.
Relaxed, present, connected to spirit ==> You’re walking the labyrinth.
Labyrinth thinking takes letting go of societal conditioning to get things done and win at all costs, ie: Who gets to the centre first? It takes letting go of traditional education’s conditioning to do it right and do as your told, ie: Follow the path exactly in order to get a gold star.
Notice your default view.
Maze or Labyrinth.
My work as a coach is not to tell you which path to choose.
It’s not about which path is right, but which path feels right for you.
If you’re alive you’re on the path.
Which would you rather walk?
