The Ones In The Arena
You see it all the time; people who aren’t writing the books, or creating the art or baking the food or building the business, and yet they still have something to say about those who are.
You find them sitting on the sidelines, on the bench, in the bleachers and in the backseat offering up their critiques without ever having stepped foot into the arena themselves.
Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we’re talking about the kinds of people that light me up to work with and who I also want to spend my time with both personally and professionally.
These are the ones that are showing up and actively participating in their life and their business with their whole body, mind and soul in the game. If they get knocked down, they’re willing to get back up, to try new things or to seek help in both healing and growing themselves or growing their businesses.
As a spiritual mentor, it gives me great joy to work with people who want to be more spiritually aligned, have more self knowledge, who no longer want to just sit and complain about things in their life, but instead are willing to actually do the work it takes to get better.
That energy of being willing to get down to business is exciting to me. That’s what LIGHTS ME UP!!
How about you? Are you one of the ones in the arena?
