I Discovered Fire

by Cletus Coffey

Our world has been transformed by many key discoveries. Findings such as fire, the world being round, the Earth revolving around the sun, electricity, and the knowledge to create the Internet, are a few profound discoveries that have allowed us to evolve and grow as human beings.

 

Over the past four years I have been on a journey to increase my understanding of my own world, the world of Me. Although I haven’t even scratched the surface, every day I have been making some subtle and some profound discoveries about myself. It wasn’t until recently however, that I found fire, meaning I have made a profound discovery that will change my world forever.

Despite being an accomplished husband, father, son, brother, student, athlete, business man, I was unaware I have been standing in the way of my own success. I have been working so hard to bring incredible value to the world, yet something has been missing.

I have done countless hours of reading, learning, studying, research, and practical application. I have designed my own vision, found mentors, been introduced to priceless opportunities, and have been in constant motion, but there is a big hurdle in the way, Me.

 

During a meditation, I did some looking back into my life to find examples of times where I was completely and totally confident so I could pull from that energy to help me over this hurdle, yet I had trouble finding one. Even though I have had some very successful moments, I have never been truly confident with my actions. This was such a painful discovery. I first began beating myself up over it, wondering what could have been had I been more confident. Then I leveled out to look for opportunities to grow.

 

I have learned that once you have been awaken to something you are lacking or doubting, you are no longer it. So, I have pushed my pride aside and am now comfortable with the fact that I was not ready to step out of my own way until now. Just writing this blog is a humbling experience. My pride is wanting to pull me back concerned about how I will be percieved. Oh well.

 

I am confident, and now know, I am no Earthly good holding on to all the knowledge, wisdom and experiences inside of me. I have a responsiblity to share them with others.

Here you go world, I have found my fire and it’s finally my time to share. Like it or not, its who I am. Thank’s for letting me get this off my chest for all to see.
