“Everybody wants a magic pill, but nobody believes in magic.” ~unknown
The profundity of this statement is not lost on me.
The magic pill is our obsession with any instant solution….think diet pills, self-help hacks, a miracle cure, spiritual shortcut, etc.
And while we long for the magic, we don’t REALLY believe in it. Most of us don’t trust the unseen forces that are necessary to create the change we seek. This is because the unknown feels unsafe and uncomfortable, while the familiar, even if it is harmful, signals safety to our nervous system.
“Magic” isn’t flashy. It’s a subtle, cumulative process that seems invisible until one day the results appear.
The paradox is that we want results, but we reject the very power that produces them.🤯
