This is the challenge of our time: to let go of our self-seeking, rigid goals and be in life, contributing and learning and being.
and it felt like time expanded the more I did this. Starting my day with the question “How can I be of service?” took the focus off what I needed to get done and put the emphasis onto how I could be of help to others.
WORK BECAME ENJOYABLE Looking at the goals and outcomes that were expected became a thing of the past, and I put my energy into doing the job to the best of my ability. This meant
that I became more collaborative and less competitive, more cooperative and less driven. I stopped spending so much time trying to work out ways to make things happen and I relaxed and trusted in the process. My work life became actually enjoyable. Even though I didn’t talk about this in
my corporate job, I relied on my intuition to guide me, which was fun and also very productive. My creativity increased with my energy levels. Options and solutions seemed to be more readily available to me. That connectedness that I felt as a woman was developing into a real strength. I was increasingly working in the flow, one with the universe, the All that is, and it felt so much easier. In her book Daily Reminders for
Living a New Paradigm, Sept 7, Anne Wilson Schaef writes, “Do we have the courage to participate fully when we don’t know where we are going or what it looks like?” This is the challenge of our time: to let go of our self-seeking, rigid goals
and be in life, contributing and learning and being. The irony was that, far from losing my
job, I actually had greater success in terms of productivity and achievement than ever before. I was thrilled with this unexpected result. I felt as though I was living in a different dimension, one where work could be easy and fun, challenging and meaningful. Learning to work in this way is changing my life and I continue to discover more every day about how to work in a way that feeds my soul. ■
