When the butterflies in your gut are flying around madly and you're tempted to turn and walk away from the choice, opportunity, or challenge that awaits you, try on this perspective:
If I weren't experiencing these butterflies,
I wouldn’t be stretching.
And if I’m not stretching,
I’m contracting and shrinking.
Where are your butterflies leading you?
Is safe, calm, small, and dying really what you want?
Come fly with me!
