From Springsteen’s hit Born To Run, you’ll find this raw and insightful lyric: “The highway's jammed with broken heroes, on a last chance power drive. Everybody's out on the run tonight, but there's no place left to hide.”
We chase while we run. We hide while we seek. We hope while we suppress. Inevitably we meander through life intentionally lost. Intentional by design. Sheltered for warm incubation. Enough so, that it’s time will find an imperative search deep within to uncover what we feel and sense. A voice within each one of us. A voice that beckons for release and development. A voice when found and used, can impact the world around us.
For some, this voice appears on the path sooner than others. For some, it comes almost too late...but it does come.
Through all the years of coaching some incredible humans being...well...human, I’ve found voice to be one of the things we work on most often. Voice is unique and has the power and significance to change your world, yet it’s one of the hardest things to find when you’re caught up in the suppression of self image and doubt.
I’ve coined an acronym that sums up what I’ve found personally regarding this journey, and all I ask is that you consider the possibility and invitation:
VOICE: a Vulnerable, Open Integrity that Changes Everything.”
If you wonder what your voice might be, let go of the charade and run no more. The voice within is ready for you to give it life.
This past week was insightful, and I hope that by sharing a few of my favorite quotes found on my own road and journey, that they will find place on yours as I pass them along. If they resonate with you, I’d challenge you to do the same. Each one of us have the ability to impact this world and help shape those around us through our influence for good.
