What Are You Waiting For?

• Do you find yourself waiting for the right moment? The ideal relationship? The perfect job?
• Are you waiting for your “real” life to begin?
• Do you think that the gifts of life are right around the corner? That one day you will arrive and everything will be okay?

If you answered yes to any of those questions, you have come to the right place!

Many people die with their music still inside them. Why is this so? Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time runs out. – Oliver Wendell Holmes

You may be a Self-Help Junkie if…

• You have been reading the same 5 self-help books at the same time for the past 5 months but still haven’t taken action.
• After reading Eat, Pray, Love you became crystal clear what was missing in your life—you need a guru and to spend a month in silent meditation at an Ashram in India.
• You know more information about the top self-help authors than you do about your local politicians.
• You think you are a Buddhist, but you don’t really know what that means.
• You could own a small island in the Caribbean for the amount of money you have spent on seminars, retreats, coaches, workshops and books … and yet you are still not satisfied.
• After each course you take, you claim that you now know that you are perfect just as you are… but then you hear about this new course that really sounds perfect and you secretly think, maybe this one will be IT…
• Your coach tells you to stop reading self-help books (and you are not sure you can…)

Waiting has become our method of relating to the world, our learned way of being. We wait with the intention of my life will be better when …We wait to earn more money, to have less debt, to get married (or to get divorced), to have children, to retire. Many of us even wait to become spiritually enlightened!

We wait for the next teacher, guru, or therapist; he or she will finally explain the meaning of life. We anticipate that the new experience or the next seminar or retreat will provide answers. We wait for recognition, to be discovered, to feel safe, to get it right. We wait to feel inspired (one of my personal favorites). We wait until our affairs are in order, our eggs are in different baskets, our ducks are in a row. We wait because when that thing arrives or happens, we will be fine, then we will be happy.

The truth is, there is nothing wrong with the exploration or the journey; it’s that some of us get lost in the searching. And there is nothing inherently wrong with self-help. The root of the “problem” lies in our relationship to it, our bottomless quest to be someone, something or somewhere other than we are, our endless seeking, searching—and waiting. The type of waiting that disguises itself in many clever ways, hiding quietly in the nuances of life or sometimes brazenly and in our face.

Don’t worry, you are not alone.
