Shedding
March 30, 2023
I am here working on this website, which are you are at browsing….struggling with the scheduler and embedding booking sessions into it. Please be patient! My thoughts are, it should be an easy for my clients to book. 2 clicks you are done. My customer experience model is Amazon ! I realize I am no web designer but I paid good money for web tools to do this. I struggle and struggle. Then a thought pops into my head….you don’t want to be a jack of all trades and a master of NONE! That is my husband’s voice.
It causes me to reflect on what I am good at? This means I need to have some talent in something, or a learned skill I have mastered, or something I really love and DESIRE to do. What is that? It is not web design for sure! I am not talented, it is not a skill I have learned and mastered, and I have NO DESIRE to do it. Key is DESIRE! I need to shed it. Like spring shedding winter. I look outside and winter is still trying to hold on. Hmmm….Lately my guidance comes through nature’s ebbs and flows. She is trying to tell me something.
The weather has been like a roller coaster lately, up and down. I call it Mother Nature’s hissy fit. She is moody and can’t move forward. She has not fully shed winter. She tries to a little, sun comes out, snow melts, spring birds are back, the robins, red winged blackbirds and thousands of geese and ducks along the river where I live. It is a cacophony of sound. Ah…spring… I feel it…. Then a blast of snow squalls, high winds and temperature plummets. The robins hide and I just want to crawl under the covers and pretend it is not happening.
Horses are trying to shed it off too, rolling to get rid of the rapidly shedding hair in the spring sun only to run for the shelter when the 50 km winds blow through. Can we come inside Mom? Where is my blanket!
It is a time to keep trying to shed winter off. We need to ride the roller coaster. It does come off. I know that. Mother Nature will settle, the hair will come off the horses, the spring bulbs will appear, the house wrens will be back.
As I struggle with the website fine tuning I think. I need to shed this too. I am not good at it, I don’t want to take the time to learn it, I have no DESIRE to do it., I am better at other things. I know my clients don’t come to me because of having a seamless website.
They come to me for what I am passionate about, what I love to do, and what I am good at. Facilitating their experience by way of these beautiful horses in my care is my calling; my purpose. So time to call the web designer and shed this task.
I am going to brush a horse, they need help with their shedding.
p.s….to my clients…you will have seamless one stop booking…it is just not me that is going to do it. I hope you are okay with that! Sending you all love and gratitude
