Our emotions keep resurfacing whenever we think about it, even when we try to think differently. When negative emotions keep coming back, it’s a sign to take some time to communicate with the part of you who’s in pain.

You can be with the part of you that is hurting in such a way that makes it easier to feel and release the pent up emotions.

It’s about feeling the emotion and feeling heard and held at the same time. We can do this for each other, but sometimes you don’t have someone you can turn to and you need to do it for yourself.

frothy ocean shore increasing confidence

You are strolling along a beach close to where the waves roll into a frothy finish. Your bare feet sink into the wet sand with each footstep that you take. You feel one with the vast expanse of sky, sand and sea. Your heart is vibrant with joy, your mind is at peace. With increasing confidence, you know that there is something bigger for you to do. You see or sense a fuller version of you.

Yet, in the cold light of day, after breakfast when you sit at your computer and attempt to do your work, the clarity fades. Doubts set in. Indecision mounts. Taking action resembles a beginning golfer taking multiple swipes before he or she hits the ball just a few feet with a clod of turf. Your small self has taken over yet again.

The problem is that many of us aren’t adept at catching our small self when it slips into the driver’s seat of our life, especially in our business or career. The more you want something, especially something that demands that you take risks, be vulnerable and put yourself on the line financially, the more likely it is that your small self will sneak in to save you from oblivion.

Would you like to experience more of your clear, confident and courageous true self? Who wouldn’t?!
