TRUST

Why is it so hard to trust in yourself?  To believe you know what is right for you? For so many they place value of self on others.  They seek approval, validation that what they are doing, thinking, choosing is okay from someone else.  Have you ever done something from the encouragement of another even though you it didn't feel right?  You knew in your gut it wasn't right for you, you could almost see how it was going to turn out, but you did it anyways.  Then sure enough it wasn't what you wanted or didn't have the outcome you hoped for and you chalk it up to your self-worth and inability to get out of life what you want.  When all along it was you allowing someone else to manifest life for you rather than you trusting in yourself that you had the ability all along to control and run your life.  We all do it, listen to someone else's viewpoint rather than trusting ourselves.  Feedback and opinions from others are helpful to us in navigating life, whether it is for a different perspective, learning from another's life experience, gathering more information to make the decision, but ultimately trusting yourself to make the right decision for you is all up to you.  This is true even when we make the wrong decision, then is when we learn and have the ability to draw from that experience to correct it the next time it pops up.  

Life is nothing but a classroom, lessons to be learned, sometimes over and over, sometimes we ace them the first or second time.  It is us, our egos that make life harder than it needs to be.  Start trusting yourself, ask yourself for the answer and follow your heart. It will lead you exactly where you need to be and pull, push or drag you through whatever you fear!!  Trust in you!
