Big You

Spent some time recently thinking about "Big You". For me, Big You comes from a few different points with the basic concept that Big You is really who you are but we spend each and every day letting little you decide where we are going. Big You knows they should delay gratification but little you lets the stress of a car breaking down push you into a new car loan. Big You knows the importance of having balance in your physical life but little you does not want to put their shoes on and go out for a walk/run.

Whether it is the white pebble, whether it is the zen "big mind", or Paul talking about the flesh and the spirit this concept is brought together from a lot of different view points and readings. Maybe this thought process was brought on by news years resolutions, maybe it is just the disconnect between knowing and doing but this has really taken hold.

I am going to try to turn this thought into a manifesto of a little substance and then use that to steer me through this new year. Please be patient as I try to put this all together, for me to get one conscious thought pieced together takes quite a bit of time.

Let us be big people, let us do what we know to do, let us finally realize that the only one that can let us is us, and the only one that can stop us is us.
