“Everything Is Figure-outable”

Do you feel like everyone else has got it together and you’re on the slow bike in the back?

Maybe you’re faced with needing to learn a new skill and have no idea where to start? (And I know that the answer is likely “google it” but as I type this there are approximately a bazillion videos, tutorials and blog posts about “how to use WordPress” and I’m still in the dark.)

Maybe, like me, you have moved to a new state and feel like all of your years of driving have in no way prepared you for the nightmare that is the I-15 merging situation. (Or maybe that’s just Utah…)

Lately, this has been my life. A new state, new church assignments, new speaking engagements. Just a lot of new, uncharted territory.

But I discovered a new, magical phrase that I keep on repeat in my brain:

“Everything is figure-outable.”

(Marie Forleo–you are a genius.)

Sometimes it takes time. And a lot of effort. And patience. And a gallon of Diet Coke.

But everything is figure-routable.

We are stronger than we feel.

We are smarter than we think.

And we are more capable than we know.

So be brave. Be strong. And please, for the love of all that is holy, let me merge.
