When confronting your precipice?
To what extent would the following be important?
- your true values and how they will be better respresented by jumping or by staying put?
- insight gained looking down into the dark and yawning hole this had created for him
- having to face the fear of being without a job, without income, on his own.
- having to face true needs: that going contracting would be selling your soul for just money and be like freefalling with heavy rocks in your pockets into the chasm?
When checking your parachute?
To what extent would the following be important?
- getting very practical about your income needs,
- getting very practical about how to generate that income, and
- make sure you take steps each day to make that real.
When Jump?
To what extent would the following be important?
- having jumped to make the commitment and follow through.
- to trust you packed your chute in spite of your still feeling horrified, scared, totally
- aware there were no guarantees
Is it worth doing a test jump?
To what extent is doing a TRIAL jump important?
- Did his parachute open right away? No it didn’t.
- Did he feel scared? Yes he did.
- Did he hit a few hard edges on the cliff and get bruised as he went down? Again yes.
But then his parachute opened, and the freefall turned into flight. And it felt good!
He began skydiving...
Making adjustments to his course as he needs to,
handling the air currents, aiming at the drop zone, and
appreciating the view as he goes
relishing the freedom of piloting his future.
