Surprise Yourself

I recently listened to the track “Surprise Yourself” by Jack Garratt for the first time and the words captured my attention at a time when I really needed to surprise myself.

“Surprise Yourself” – Lyrics

Speak and open up your mind
It’s something you should do all the time
Keep exploring, seek and find
You know you might surprise yourself
Talk without a taint or hold
The doubts that should embrace your heart
The calm and chaos of your soul
You know you might surprise yourself

Take a pen and write this down
Draw something that can’t be found
And learn to walk again somehow
You know you might surprise yourself

Love her if you only knew
The times that train has fooled me too
And tears me from a place I know
It helps me to surprise myself
You know you can surprise yourself
So let go and surprise yourself

Whilst searching for these full lyrics. I came across the official video which I think is so incredibly inspiring.

How might you surprise yourself today? Take that step. Even with the fear. Hold it’s hand and move forward anyway. You have so totally got this! xo

Love and thanks to Ben who introduced me to Jack Garratt.

Be Deliberate!
