Gestation versus Momentum – Trusting Source to Set the Pace

Momentum vs. Gestation – how do you know where you are and what you need?

We are creating a new website!

 

I made a YouTube video a while back about developing our new website. The video was about having a transformational container in which the website would be created.

 

We have been in this container of support to create the new website, and one of the things we do in each meeting is to go around the room to presence what is available to each person at that time.

 

Not necessarily the details of the project, but what has been bubbling up in their awareness and intuition since we last met. In our latest meeting, we realized that the feeling in the room was that of momentum.

 

Although we have been doing things for the website, they have been small as we were in a gestation period. We have been thinking, feeling, sensing, etc.!

 

How amazing is that! To have a team collectively sensing the same energy at the same pace because Source is guiding us!

 

We collectively feel a shift into the momentum and are ready to execute.

How amazing is that! To have a team collectively sensing the same energy at the same pace because Source is guiding us!

We are now ready to make decisions and be in action. Had we tried to be in the place of momentum before we were ready, it would not work out very well, but again, Source is guiding us.

 

I have done this before, and it feels like frustration.

 

I point this out as a team, but we each have this individually as well.

 

Individually, you have cycles for things you are holding. You are either in a place of Gestation or holding. In Gestation, you are holding space for the project to unfold, for the awareness to kick in, and for Source to deliver different messages to you through humans, conversations, and things happening in the world.

In Gestation, you are holding space for the project to unfold, for the awareness to kick in, and for Source to deliver different messages to you through humans, conversations, and things happening in the world.

Then you hit the place of clarity and readiness for momentum or to birth the new idea and move it forward. Nothing is worse than being in a gestation period and thinking you should be in momentum.   

 

Our culture expects us to be in momentum all the time. Wanting to be in momentum all the time, at least for my team, doesn’t work. We are in collective energy, which is either Gestation or momentum. 

 

The most common thing I see is to discern default energy from Sourced energy. 

    • Default energy may say, I can’t take that action, I can’t be in momentum because everything isn’t perfect yet, and I’m not ready.

    • Sourced energy will say, I’m not taking action because I know I will know when I am ready to take action.  

Those are two very different things. A person could be in a place of deep knowing that they are in a gestation period and that the birth will happen and feel good about it. 

Or they might be in the gestation period, but because they know how default energy feels (procrastinating, hiding out, trying not to be seen), they might mistake the gestation period for default energy and then beat themselves up for not being in momentum when in reality they are simply still in Gestation! 

Nothing is worse than being in a gestation period and thinking you should be in momentum.   

 

Our culture expects us to be in momentum all the time. Wanting to be in momentum all the time, at least for my team, doesn’t work.

This awareness is why the work we do at Sourced is so essential.

 

We teach others how to be 100% clear when you are in Gestation, knowing you are in a cycle, feeling good about it, not pushing anything, not forcing anything, not producing only to be in momentum.

 

The other part is knowing when you are ready and taking precise, potent, and fast action.

It is impossible to waste time. When you have an energetic awareness of life, everything that happens and unfolds contributes to your becoming energetically. You have access to all of that forever.

When COVID started, I was leading retreats about how to lead profitable retreats. That was not popular at that moment.

 

Did I feel at that moment, “oh no, the world took away my livelihood, and all the time I spent developing this program was wasted because I have to start over?

 

No. I didn’t feel that because who I became when developing that work was accessible to me to create the next stage. It didn’t go away. It is always there.

 

You can’t waste your time. You are not behind, and you can’t mess it up. Source is with you 100% of the time.

 

Tell me what your thoughts are on this.

 

    • Does this speak to you?
    • Do you know someone beating themselves up over past decisions that need to hear this?

You can’t waste your time. You are not behind, and you can’t mess it up. Source is with you 100% of the time. 

Spread the magic!
