4 Things to remember when you are worried about making bad choices.
Choices are stepping stones not freeways with no exits.
Greetings decision maker and action taker!
Perfectionism robs women of so much power in their own lives. The power of using your voice to say what you really mean, need or want. The power to communicate a boundary that means you keep just a little more of your own energy or creativity for your contributions to the world instead of just being the fuel or path maker for other people. That doesn’t mean don’t be a path maker or support others! It means don’t only do that if you aren’t also working on the path and fuel for your own dreams too.
But it’s hard even if it’s simple. And I need to break it to you that trusting yourself, valuing yourself, creating the confidence to believe in what you are bringing into the world, are HABITS that need practising. We are very trained and very good at practising the habits that tell us not now, that’s too much, no one cares, I’m not any good…
There’s enough of the external pressures to slow you down, what if just for today, just for a couple of thoughts you could experiment with not letting your inner voice be a contributor to that?
So on today I’m here to remind you:
You can handle it. If you’re reading this, you have a 100% track record of getting through everything that has happened in your life.
You make way better decisions then you give yourself credit for.
Choices are not permanent things. They are not roads or freeways with no exits. Choices are stepping stones. Each one a progression and repeating opportunity for you to make another one. If you take a wrong turn you can pause, stop, turn around, start again, consider it differently, or keep going to see what’s ahead.
If changing your mind costs you money it’s always worth it. Investing in supporting yourself and having your own back is priceless. Don’t worry if there isn’t a refund if you don’t feel good about going. Don’t get married to someone because the invitations have been printed. Never sell yourself out because there’s money involved, it’s much too expensive.
What choice have you been putting off because you were worried about making a bad one?
