I’m sitting on a rocket

I feel like I am sitting on top of a rocket. The Women’s Earning Institute is growing quickly and I feel it is poised to do many great things. I am excited, and I am nervous. I am almost too busy, struggling to keep up with the opportunities that arise and to make the most of the opportunities I diligently create. (What is that saying? Luck is where opportunity meets preparedness?) I feel a great power underneath me, but at times I feel like I am still locked down to the landing pad. The rocket has been lit and wants to surge forward. The locking clamps are straining. How do I gracefully release them? I feel I am being sling-shotted up into space. And at times I fear that this rocket will explode on the launch pad, or in mid-air. What a wild ride I’m on.
