Once a year I teach for Randal Churchill’s Hypnotherapy Training Institute in Corte Madera. He always has a phenomenal group of students from all over the world.
When I lived in Northern California it was a more simple process — drive to the Bay area, teach, drive home.
However, now that I live and work in San Diego it’s more complicated. Fly to Oakland, rent a car, drive to Corte Madera, spend the night, teach, drive back to Oakland, spend the night, fly home. It’s actually even more complicated than that but I won’t bore you with ALL the details.
And, as it sometimes happens, travel can be… well, let’s say, interesting. Another opportunity to be patient and trust.
Everything went well until I left Corte Madera to drive back to Oakland when my smart phone message: “searching for gps” seemed as it if would never end.
I called my friend for directions and started driving, expecting the gps to catch up with me. Nope. Have you noticed how everything looks different at night? I was sure that I had been driving for 30 minutes and had probably missed Oakland all together. But when I looked at the clock I had been on the road for 12 minutes. Yep. 12. Time distortion.
So, I got off the freeway as soon as I hit the first exit in Oakland. The gps couldn’t locate my position. What?? I don’t know where I am! Of course, another call and my friend guided me to her house.
The next morning I was concerned about getting back to the rental car place, in the rain, with not enough sleep and using written directions in case the gps still didn’t know where I was.
So, when I got in the car I asked for help. I wanted… the pouring rain to stop… the gps to work… to find a convenient gas station… to be on time for my flight…
So I asked. When I pulled away from the curb the gps worked perfectly, the rain stopped… in other words, everything started to shift.
In fact, a nice Hertz employee personally drove me to the terminal saving me a trip on the shuttle bus. A Southwest employee guided me to the medical line for security (I walk with a cane). People went out of their way to be helpful.
I think I’ll ask more often. It’s such a simple thing but sometimes I just don’t remember to do it.
