Car total loss. Hex 9 UC

[dancingfox]

Hi everybody

I was in a car accident this Wednesday. My car is total loss and I am fine except for some bruises. Right now, I don't have a budget to buy a new one and I am in the middle of starting up my own practice. I know I am still in shock. Everything was going so great. My practice is growing and I was working on my next step; collaborating with companies in the healthcare sector. Without a car and living just outside of the city my mobility will be a problem.

I know I can keep my head cool. I have a clear goal in mind and I can be creative in my solutions. Meantime I am working through what happened and trying to gain some perspective on my situation.

How do I move on from this? Hex 9 uc

In Hillary's Barrett's Language of Change the clouds from the Western altars have not yet brought rain, indicating a dream not fulfilled, someone not yet 'in synch' with the whole.

In this thread from last November I asked if this course would help me with my marketing
how would I benefit from taking this course
Which it didn't. It gave me a professional community from which I have gotten practical and moral support and perhaps, collabarations in the future. I got sound advice on how to proceed with my business and the course from Breakmov and Trojina which I couldn't accept at that time. Meanwhile I am heeding Breakmov's advice approaching the medical and healthcare sector, better late then never

Just sayin all of this is an example of how I am not yet entirely aligned or in synch. Which is why I've been having difficulties with my start up.

The Oracle of hex 9 seems to tell me what I already now. Just keep on keeping on. Attend to the details, don't get frustrated and keep my head cool.

to cultivate the situation and yourself in small ways, developing your readiness and fitness just as a small farmer works the soil. You can't make things grow in a single gesture, and so you need self-restraint: you have to work steadily, responding conscientiously to the realities here at ground level, caring for the small details.

This hex reminds me of practicing mindfullness. To stay grounded and focused, reminding me that I can anly keep on doing what I was already doing. Like the farmer is working to cultivate a better terrain, I am cultivating my own grounds, creating something fertile for the future.

How meditative.

Insight are always welcome!

If I got this reading in the wake of a car accident, I would take it as a sign to attend to the small matters, and details. Insurance payout, your health, just get through this period of chaos that the accident engendered.
It makes sense to worry about the larger picture when you were on a track and thrown off so wildly, but recovering from the loss is perhaps all you need to attend to right now.

I imagine that you are in the "chopping hard ground" phase, the "breaking stone" phase...you have an exciting project where it is now necessary to create all those small details that will make this project real....but you are still looking for how to align this constant effort in these small details, which you also don't know yet because they only appear in the course of that hard work of looking for partnerships or customers.

How to look for win-win solutions where everyone wins and at the same time the "danger of competition for resources" is minimized?
I think that working hard to respond to all the small details, without getting discouraged (with or without a car), is the next step, even if you are still in the process of getting to know these small details.

I leave you a real example that happened in my city that illustrates well the "working the fine details":

There is a young couple who set up a krav-maga academy that is now hugely successful. He had his passion for krav-maga since he was a teenager, had a successful career in this martial art and wanted to make it his way of life. She, was also connected to physical activity.... fitness and gym routines.

How did they make a success of such a specific martial art especially linked to the training of specialized professions such as security guards and not known to the general public?

...right from the start, there weren't enough students for something so unfamiliar and specific that it would allow for a fully functioning academy.

The small details of flexibility and adaptation of a business that allowed influencing a win-win solution:

In addition to the gym activity, physical preparation and particular krav-maga for specialized professions....
-created a specific self-defense program for women
-created a service for transporting children to and from school, which made it possible to attract the confidence of the mothers of these children and publicize the academy's service.

It is fun to see the contrast between the "WeFight" van and the other study center transport vans at schools.
..and it's fun to see the mothers who train krav-maga at the academy, running around the block to do their physical warm-up...a simple way of remembering that there is an academy...and if the mothers joined, why not others too?...

Hi Kestrelwings

Looks like that is exactly what is happening. I have been running/ bycicling around from the insurances to the police, rearranging appointments and looking for creative solutions in regard to my mobility. It's been almost a week and now my body is telling me plain and clear that it's time to recover. I can't just drop everything, but I can look for different solutions.

Chopping the hard ground, creating small details to bring an exciting project into reality. Aligning constant effort in the small details that are not all clear yet because it's all still taking shape.

Yes, working hard with or without car. I don't think I have bycicled this much kilometers since my teens

I am beat but not broken. It's ironic how I have been wishing to find more time to work out, save some money and keep my focus. I would not exactly call this accident a gift from the universe. But without a car I will be saving money, be obligated to work out on my bycicle (scarce public transportation here) and my focus on building a thriving practice was never more clear.

Thanks for the inspirational Krav Maga example!

Last week I started to work together with an ex Olympian athlete who opened a crossfit studio around my corner. My trauma informed somatic therapy practice can complement her customers. Often women who are building their confidence and could use a more holistic approach. Not just gym but the whole package.

This month I started working together with another practice of specialists working the same niche as I do.

I started doing local netwerk events , flyering and just generally showing up in public locally. This seems to be working. People actually knew me already from social media and interested but afraid to actually take that first step.

I never realised that starting a business would be such a creative endeavour
