Resistance, Shoulds, and Mediocrity: Express Yourself Truly

I address a topic recently covered on Jackie Dotson’s blog.  She blogged about resistance and how we need to overcome it. She notes that resistance is “writer’s block, procrastination, jitters. All that stuff rolled into one annoying package.”
Resistance is often grouped with the “shoulds” in our lives. Should is the granddaddy of mediocrity. When we are doing something we do not want to do, it is difficult to be anything other than mediocre. I suggest that rather than focusing on what you should do, focus on what you want to do. Pursue who you are. And pursue with passion.
