How You Feel Is Enough
We’ve all been there. Feeling like you just don’t want to show up and be seen, heard, felt – on social media, in business, in life – and yet you show up anyway, only to feel deeply exhausted and burned out afterwards.
“Should’ve just stayed in bed” kind of feeling.
I have a question for you:
Have you ever felt that the “I don’t feel like it” feeling isn’t enough?
Unhealed inner conflict says,
“What will my excuse be? How will I justify it?”
“How can I compromise so I don’t disappoint anyone?”
“What if I just do it anyway and get it over with?”
This type of inner conflict is often fuelled by feelings of guilt, shame, and fear of disappointing others.
There are all kinds of stories for the ego to get inflamed around about being flaky, and unreliable, and what that does and does not mean.
But here’s something I invite you to contemplate if this happens to be one of your inner conflicts:
What if…forcing yourself to show up when you don’t feel like it is actually doing a great disservice
to yourself, and to those around you.
What if… truly honouring how you feel, is actually an act of graciousness.
Fear says,
“But what if you NEVER feel like showing up, EVER?” 🙃
And the GIFT of this inner conflict says,
“What’s meant for you will not pass you by.”
How you feel, is enough.
No excuses, justifications, or compromises.
Let me know if this resonates with you.
