Willingness is the light side of withdrawal.
If you are willing, you will check into your energy and choose a clear yes or a clear no. Then direction and movement become possible. People who simply withdraw do not give a clear yes or no, a stalemate position, hampering forward momentum. Therefore, effective action becomes impossible.
Confidence is at the root of so many attractive qualities, a sense of humor, a sense of style, a willingness to be who you are no matter what anyone else might think or say. -Wentworth Miller
Curiosity endows the people who have it with a generosity in argument and a serenity in their own mode of life which springs from their cheerful willingness to let life take the form it will. -Alistair Cooke
Questions to ask:
- When am I most willing?
- What lights-on thought or activity supports my willingness?
- Where can I be more willing?
- How does enthusiasm, celebration, modeling, contributing, empowering and force relate to willingness?
- What does willingness feel like energetically? Notice it: experience that feeling.
