Voodoo Wisdom

Well, I stand up next to a mountain 

And I chop it down with the edge of my hand 

Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island 

Might even raise a little sand

–Jimi Hendrix, “Voodoo Child”

 

Sometimes life feels like a gigantic mountain standing in the way of you achieving what you desire. When this happens, I recommend doing what the great Jimi Hendrix says, and that’s to chop it down with the edge of your hand. Whatever your personal mountains may be, the only way to get through them is via action. Take that action now, and soon you’ll be picking up all of the pieces and making your own island.
