Lately, I’ve noticed a pattern I have that I’ll get to a certain point in achieving my new goals, and inevitably an internal barrier comes up that says “STOP. I don’t feel safe. Don’t go any further.”
In the past, I used to just take this inner voice at its word, and discontinue the journey. I would just stay with my stuck self in the fear. Well, I gotta tell you, that kinda sucks.
Fortunately, I’ve done that pattern enough now that when that voice comes up, I challenge it. Is it really true? Am I not safe, or is there something else coming up that I am really needing to address?
My self investigation appeared to be very fruitful. I uncovered a new insight that’s really changing the way I look at my safety, and it’s letting me have more freedom and confidence than I ever have before. Want to learn my secret? Take a look:
So, what do you think? Have you been using safety as an excuse to not test your ability to step into more vulnerability and hence more power? Write your experience in the comments below.
I hope the overall lesson you’re taking away from this episode is to challenge your assumptions and don’t always listen to that inner voice inside. Perhaps, it’s seriously outdated…and now it’s time for an upgrade.
Big love,
Amy 🙂
