60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday: If I’ve Not Yet Begun How Did I Get “Well Done!”?

Hello to you listening in Arroyomolinos, Spain!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.

As the plane began its descent into Madrid, Spain I had made up my mind that I could not, should not, would not walk the Camino de Santiago. I would pick up my pack and catch the next flight home. I was no pilgrim.

What changed? I opened a card from my friend Lorraine that slipped out from between the pages of the guide book I was holding. The card read, “WELL DONE!”

Her words continued:  “As you read this thousands of feet above the earth (how could she have known that?) you may be wondering why I gave you a “WELL DONE!” card to start your Camino de Santiago journey. Regardless of what does or doesn’t happen from here on out, you will be forever changed simply because you showed up. And that, my friend, is “WELL DONE!” You have been given so much and have shared that so freely with others. All that you’ve courageously and deliberately laid down and walked away from in the last few years has led to today so that you are free to pick up whatever lies before you. So, in a word – or two – “WELL DONE!”

And the rest, as they say, was Buen Camino.

Question: To whom will you offer “WELL DONE!” today?  How about starting with your own good self.
