WOM 010: WHEN DOING BECOMES PROVING
The Way of Mastery For Business Series | Day 9 | October 11th, 2025
“I need do nothing.” – Jeshua
It’s an honor to help someone see their own light. In our work with clients, I get to witness the moment when a client’s stories, desires, and power begin to organize into a clear vision. It’s holy work.
And yet, each time I prepare the first draft of that vision, a familiar tension rises. I want so badly for them to see the beauty I see that my body tightens. My mind starts whispering: Did I get it right? Am I doing them justice? Who am I to be the one articulating this?
On the surface, it looks like devotion to excellence. Underneath, it’s that old companion: the fear of not being enough. Even after years of happy clients and external validation, the voice still returns, dressed as professionalism, but carrying the same old message: prove yourself again.
Almost every time, the same miracle unfolds. After a morning of tweaking words and second-guessing every phrase, I share the document, and they light up. Not because it’s perfect, but because love and presence were in it.
Jeshua reminds us: “You are already the holy Son of God made manifest. Nothing you do can add to that, and nothing you fail to do can diminish it.”
The moment I remember that truth, the striving softens. I realize my job isn’t to prove worthiness; it’s to reveal what is already worthy, in them and in me.
Sacred Business is never about performing for approval. It’s a co-creative unfolding, where each client and each project is precisely the partnership required for the next step, not the final destination, just the next evolution.
When I rest in that knowing, the frantic edge dissolves. Faith replaces performance. Service becomes peaceful. And the work once again feels Sacred.
Reflect
Where does “I must get this perfect” secretly mean “I hope this proves I belong”?
What would shift if you treated your next deliverable as an offering instead of evidence?
If your worth were already settled, what one thing would you ship today as is?
