Not standing still after all!

I’m finally moving on! Just this week my proposal was passed along to the next step and I’m so excited. Because there’s movement!
But if I’m going forward now, that means I’ve done so all along. No one reaches a goal without moving.
So why do we think we’re standing still when we’re not? I think it’s because some gains are invisible to our naked eye. And the world tells us that movement toward a big goal, i.e., success, is big, bright, loud, and obvious.
However, movement is often quiet and goes unnoticed.
For me it’s been years of researching, thinking, processing, writing, revising, praying, and restarting. And I’ve been moving all along.
How about you?
Are you in one place, wondering why you’re not at the next place? Are you working on something but seemingly can’t get traction? Don’t worry. Just like the earth, you’re moving all the time. And we hardly notice.
Working on a goal and trying to achieve something in life – whether it’s a professional objective or weight loss – is like that. The steps and processes that get you closer happen in space. I guess that’s where faith comes in.
Put in the time and movement happens. You just don’t see it because you’re busy working and pushing and stressing as you press forward. Then one day you look up and the results are visible to you and everyone else.
So, keep on keeping on. Believe it or not, you’re moving!
