Quiet the noise in the outside world by seeking solace within the self.
We don’t give ourselves enough credit.
Whenever a decision needs to be made, we tend to look to others for guidance.
It’s not necessarily that we think less of ourselves, but we always think that a perspective from others is more fruitful.
From a young age, we seek education from peers, parents, teachers and the like.
I am not suggesting that a reality devoid of education is ideal.
I just ask people to put more trust in their own beliefs.
Here’s why….
When you put trust and faith in your own actions, you will build confidence within.
You are signaling to yourself that you have the strength to rise and fall on your own.
If you fall, you pick up the experience and continue moving while being better equipped to handle such an event in the future.
If you rise, you learn that the strength to accomplish feats can be completed on your own.
In either case, your knowledge grows as you feed your experiential reality.
My favorite reason for seeking the voice within can be distilled to one word – “Liberation”
Imagine the liberation that comes with being 100% responsible for your results.
I cannot blame others for the mistakes in my life or worse, play the victim.
I am free to live my life my way and when death comes knocking,
I can simply smile knowing that I did it with self-respect and integrity.
For those of you who feel like life is slipping away, reach out and take more ownership.
Go out there and live your best life in your terms.
