You Are Qualified!

Woman in your 60’s, 70’s, and Above?

There may be numerous goals labelled ‘never did’, never done’, ‘never ran’, ‘never won’; negative mantras trying to discourage you.

Facts about your age, qualifications, status, and circumstances trying to dampen your fire; boldly challenging your ability to make impact in this season of your life.

But common sense and lived experience do not come with a degree.

They came through the many years of you having to navigate without a road map or a historical reference point.

They came when you had seemingly reached the end of your options and every avenue you explored led you to disappointments and dead ends.

They came when your back was against the wall and blind faith alone propelled you forward because quitting was not an alternative choice.

They came because there were no doors to turn back to nor side exits to escape through.

They came because your values dictated that your only choice was to forge a new path one step at a time even whilst feeling the fear, without an encourager, and despite not knowing what the outcome would look like.

I have been there!

As I wrote in my book “Woman Arise!” Pearls of Wisdom for Woman Power, “A thing is only impossible until it is done.”

“I can’t” is very easy to say and do.

“No one has ever done it before” is your comfort zone calling you to remain snugly cocooned within it.

My view of life is akin to a race; a track and field relay to be exact. No matter how hard you run your leg, if you fail to pass on the baton you are holding in your hand, then you will be disqualified, and so will every member of your team. Failing to pass the baton means that some runners never get the chance to run.

Woman Arise!

Someone is waiting for you to share your knowledge; your story, complete with the triumphs and the struggles.

YOU ARE QUALIFIED. You do not need a big stage. Begin where you are. Serve where you can. Pass that baton on one life at a time.

Your story matters.

Your ‘you can’ could make all the difference in the world to someone waiting to hear it.

THERE IS STILL A BATON IN YOUR HAND!

Ask yourself this week: What are some life lessons I have learned that I can share with someone else to give them hope as they navigate a challenging time?
