On Monday night over 30 women gathered at the magnificent Eileen Fisher store at the Westchester in White Plains, NY. These were women business owners who came from three states (NY, CT and NJ) to meet other remarkable women and exchange ideas and inspiration. Here they are in small groups for intimate exchanges regarding issues in their companies and lives.
I’d been visualizing this evening for over a year. The form changed, but the environment and the feeling were exactly as I’d imagined.
Interestingly, my feeling on the way home although peaceful and satisfied was somewhat flat. When I described it to my good friend and goal buddy she was not surprised. “You’ve realized your vision, Jane,” she said. “You’ve gotten to a very high level which many people would envy. For you, though, it’s a plateau while you decide what your next vision will be.”
Plateaus, of course, are elevated but level.
If I were one of my clients I’m sure I’d be telling her to celebrate, take a break, re-energize for what’s next and allow things to manifest. But, my gremlins are responding, “You just took a month off. You must do something important.”
Ah, success. It can be a double-edged sword. I think I’ll choose the self-care advice and hush those gremlins up. Spa, anyone?
