Listening from Within

Have you ever wonder why we second guess ourselves?


It is mind blogging that we tend to go against ourselves when we can feel something. I know this all too well. The pressures of society can get the best of us. Sometimes feeling like we have to compete or surrender to be like others. One thing that I have learned is that you have to bet on yourself. Forming your own path that is truly yours will make a world of difference. I was always a person that looked towards others to find an answer to my problem. Going through many years of this, I was being to realize that the problem started with me. I was looking outside of myself to fit in. I use to sit in my room, having a tingly feeling like something was not right. I was not inspired and feeling very tired all the time. I was keeping busy so I could distract myself from daily responsibilities. The more I ran away, the more it was weighing on me. Something had to change. I had to say to myself “I AM WORTHY, IT IS MY BIRTHRIGHT.” This is when I started to face things I was not comfortable with having to heal myself from my past choices. Healing is one of the hardest things you can do for yourself but the most rewarding as well.


Tips that can help you through this:

1. Sit in a quiet or comfortable environment and do some deep breathing exercises for about 5 minutes. It will allow you to be more present in the moment.


2. Write 3 positive things that happened each day for you. This can help develop your mind and minimize negative thinking.


3. Express yourself creativity such as writing, music, speaking etc. This is a great outlet for any negative or nervous feelings.


I would like to close with his quote:


“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around” -Leo Buscaglia


Now, it is time to listen to your compass and create kindness, honesty and small act of caring towards yourself.

  2. Love this🤗!! Thank you for being so honest and for sharing your journey, it is inspiring. Betting on yourself is definitely tough at times when you don’t feel as confident in your abilities and when you listen to the negativity of others. These tips have been incredibly helpful and I will use them on my journey to forming my own path ❤️

    • I love #2! I started doing this when I went through a divorce several years ago. Every day I had to find 3 things to be grateful for which I had not chosen before. It’s hard! And I found I started living every day to find things to be grateful for to write as my 3 things. And that changed how I saw the entire world. I always come back to this when I’m having a hard time in life.

    • I am glad you are making steps to forging your own path. Let your heart lead the way. Enjoy the journey 😊
