DAY 56 - ARE YOU WAITING FOR PERMISSION?
I hope you’re following along as we countdown the final 100 days of 2022 - you can join us anytime. Learn more about the program HERE.
When we step out of our everyday routines and take a risk, it can be intimidating. It can create fear and anxiety for many people. Let’s press into that feeling for a moment. Is the concern that we might not be ready to take a leap or are we waiting for someone to give us permission?
What I find in talking with clients is more the ‘waiting for permission’ scenario. This tends to be an even bigger issue for women. It would be easy to say, just don’t worry about it. But that would not be a realistic or fair response, because that feeling is real. I’d like to offer a different perspective. What if we gave ourselves permission?
If you gave yourself permission to step fully into a goal you desire, would that feel empowering? Accept that it can be scary, but it shouldn’t render us powerless. You are strong and capable. After all, we are responsible for the choices and decisions we make, so why wait for someone else to tell you “It’s okay?” I think what you’ll find is that once you try it, the feeling is so energizing it makes you want to try it again…and again. Be bold, be brave. You’ve got this!
